Garden design - sculpture, furniture and garden features integrated into landscapes

My work in gardens is often a cross between sculptural and practical. Though there are often areas of a garden design that lend themselves to pure sculpture I believe that decorative handrails, arches, gates and trellises can also be sculptural. Please take a look at my Gardens Gallery to see examples of my work in situ. 

Here is an example of design from a client's brief:

Garden handrails

Handrails and arch (2003)

This set was designed and hand forged for a private garden in Cheshire.

The brief was to create an organic feel with no straight lines. 

The light colour of the finish was chosen to complement the garden in all seasons.

The construction is very heavy and permanent but designed to have a light appearance.
