Backyard Retreats
Many of our clients wish for a respite from a busy day, a safe place for children to play, or maybe just a quiet spot to enjoy a glass of wine in front of the fireplace. Urban gardens offer another room, a place to commune with nature and a social gathering spot, within the city setting.
