A mansion with a swim pool at backyard garden, showing the luxurious lifestyle.

Standing in Kew the grand designed mansion, Harp Garden extends the elegance of a grand residence into the surrounding outdoor environment. The landscape creates a subtle yet sophisticated atmosphere, working closely with the architecture to form a cohesive and enjoyable residential setting with a strong sense of tranquillity and refined living.

A gentle slope going up the driveway, reaching the modern french design architecture, with elegant garden design in front.
The blustone paved steps going up to the front yard of the mansion, with diversified selection of plantations around.

At the front of the property, the black picket fence complements the sophisticated mansion façade and reinforces the architectural character. Grey-toned Bluestone paving establishes the ground platform and works together with the surrounding garden elements to create an elegant yet welcoming front garden.

An elegant garden bench, matching with the french design style. The details on the bench add taste to this high class garden design.
Bluestone pavings as stepping stones, creating a path from the entrance to the front porch.

Stepping stones and carefully selected garden furniture provide both functional value and subtle references to traditional British garden design. These elements create a seamless relationship between modern landscape design and classic, timeless garden character.

The sideway of the building creates a enclosed private space, with the vegetations providing shading, people can have their own relaxing time here.

Moving through the more private side gardens leads towards the feature swimming pool. The transition from the inclusive front garden, through the enclosed side spaces and into the open rear garden creates a complete landscape journey with a high level of enjoyment.

The pool shell act as a water wall feature, where the water gently flows from the sharp blue pool tiles to the trench below.
Two different blue pool tiles used in the swim pool, together with the grey stone capping refering back to the front yard, creating a pool area with different materials an depths.

The swimming pool acts as both the visual and functional focal point of the rear garden. Carefully considered detailing gives the pool area a strong sense of hierarchy within the overall design. The pool shell also functions as a water feature wall, allowing water to fall gracefully across vibrant blue tiles. A strip of lawn surrounding the pool enriches the built form and introduces another layer of texture and greenery to the rear garden. Details such as the railing fences, seating and surrounding finishes were carefully selected to complement the overall architecture and landscape design.

The pool wall blue tiles, the grey cappings and the strips of lawn aligned and create layers of line in term of materiality.
