Wathamstow family garden: Designing a multi-functional, playful, and inviting space for all ages
Project overview
Our clients, a young family with children living in Walthamstow, East London, sought Wild Butterfly Gardening's expertise to transform their medium-sized garden into a versatile and inviting outdoor space that offered fun and engaging areas for their children while also providing stylish and comfortable zones for relaxation and entertainment for the adults.
Design process and result
We began the design process with a detailed consultation with the family to understand their needs, preferences, and aspirations for their Walthamstow Family Garden. A site survey followed, assessing the existing conditions and identifying opportunities to create a multi-functional and visually appealing space that catered to the entire family's needs.
Our team developed a custom garden design that carefully balanced the various requirements of the family, providing engaging spaces for the children and inviting areas for the adults to unwind and entertain.
Garden Features and Family-Friendly Spaces
The final design of the Walthamstow Family Garden incorporated the following features, thoughtfully selected to create a harmonious and functional outdoor environment that catered to the family's diverse needs:
- A stylish patio area with comfortable outdoor furniture, perfect for alfresco dining, relaxation, and entertaining guests
- Raised planting beds filled with a vibrant mix of flowers, herbs, and vegetables, encouraging the family to engage with nature and enjoy the benefits of growing their own produce
- A lush and low-maintenance lawn, providing an open space for family activities and a soft, green backdrop to the garden
- Vertical planting interest from climbers and container schemes to bring the eye forwards away from he garden's boundaries
Project Completion and Client Satisfaction
Upon completion of the project, the family was delighted with their transformed Walthamstow Family Garden. The space catered to the needs of each family member, offering an engaging play area for the children and stylish, comfortable zones for relaxation and entertainment for the adults. The garden became a cherished extension of their home and a welcoming haven for both family and friends.

"Sarah from wild butterfly gardening has transformed our small city garden it’s barely recognisable. She has incorporated all our needs; big flowering planters, evergreen plants to keep the garden looking nice in winter, vegetable beds and areas for the children to play, creating a beautiful garden that I love spending time in. She was quick to produce the plans and she and her team constructed and planted the scheme without fuss. The garden keeps getting better as the garden matures and plants grow."
