Brett Chelsea Garden 2008

The Brett garden is all about real life aspirations and providing a flexible outdoor space that is perfect for everyday living.

 

 

 

 

Everyone's needs

change over the years so the Brett garden is designed with adaptablility and sustainability

in mind and can change to suit every stage of

your life.

 

 

At the same time, we wanted to create something that everyone could easily aspire to, no matter what their experience of gardening or the size of their plot. The Brett garden can be recreated either as a small complete garden or as part of a larger plot.

 

This year's Brett garden has a relaxing and elegant area for summer entertaining, with beautiful water fountains that can be lit to create a magical atmosphere at night. A flexible building, the focal point around which the garden is constructed, provides a haven for whiling away the hours and glorious beds packed with flowers, shrubs, fruit, veg and herbs bring colour and life to the outdoor seating areas.

 

The Brett garden is also designed to be environmentally friendly with ideas you can put in place today without great expense to positively improve your outdoor space and minimise your impact on the environment. This is achieved on three levels: firstly, the garden uses a choice of ethically sourced materials; secondly, the design encourages composting and the harvesting of rainwater; and finally, it encourages people to grow their own fruit and vegetables, which reduces their reliance on imported food.

 

We will demonstrate that it is perfectly acceptable to mix shrubs, colourful herbaceous plants, fruit, veg and herbs together in a small space. Not only does this create an attractive, exciting space but it enables all of us, in some small way, to improve our environment and the impact we have on it today.
