Having recently completed their first private garden in Rubliovka, Moscow, cgd landscape design ltd have been awarded a new contract for a 1 acre naturalistic woodland garden in the same region.
Sally Court and Helen Billetop, the designers, have gained considerable experience over the past five years in working in this inclement climate and have built up a vast knowledge of plants that will not only survive the extremes of heat and cold but will also provide a stunning display of colour over a long period.
One of their great successes was to seed a large area with a pictorial meadow mix of seeds developed by de Jager, the bulb specialists and the experts at the University of Sheffield. This display of flowers started in June and is still flowering in October, a longevity not known in this part of Russia.
It is a direct result of the creation of their first garden that this new project has been awarded. Their client is looking for a classic woodland retreat with glades, walks, naturalistic planting, wild flowers and views into the wider landscape. Both the designers, Sally and Helen are excited about this commission and are looking forward to the installation which will start in spring 2012.
A new landscape architecture and design practice brings together the creativity, expertise and experience of two of the UK's top garden designers, Helen Billetop and Sally Court, based in London, England
The practice specialises in providing a comprehensive and personalised landscape design service for private individuals and corporate clients in the UK and overseas.
With expertise in planting design across all climate zones and working with locally sourced materials and quality contractors, they are currently commissioned on several prestigious projects in the UK, Moscow, Russia and in New York State, USA.
"Our philosophy combines the functional with the artistic to create inspired and sustainable gardens and landscapes. We embrace local characteristics and conditions to develop landscape design solutions which are sympathetic and can be surprising in their simplicity," they told That's Gardening.
