Our in-house construction team provides the full complement of landscaping services, from drawing up 3D visualisations and masterplans, to the final construction process of a full garden redesign. The landscaping choices afford the platform on which a given design sits, so plays a fundamental role in the ultimate appearance and usability of a space.
Even the smallest area can benefit from a sympathetic landscaping overhaul, and pocket-sized spaces present a unique challenge which we are well equipped to match. While our focus tends towards carrying out a complete garden makeover that makes full use of our integrated approach, we can still carry out occasional basic landscaping projects. These may include patio construction, garden screening, garden walls, etc.
Depending on the brief and setting, we welcome overarching landscaping commissions aiming for either a contemporary and urban finish or one inclined towards the more traditional, rural or formal. All will have a focus on prime materials, and we are able to source suitable garden furnishing options and provide lighting design services in this vein. Our construction methods are comparably high quality, but we also take landscaping cues from our ability to interpret a client’s needs from their own personality and sense of style. We have found these are interesting factors from which to tie a landscape principle to a prevailing design choice, and to explore the relationship between a house and its owners.
It is crucial for a given design choice to seamlessly integrate the outdoors with the indoors, and all chosen materials with their immediate surroundings, which means that every stage of a design and construction process must be meticulously considered.
Our in-house construction team are a ‘family’ of dedicated garden professionals that have worked together for many years. The majority of our designs include bespoke features so require our skill and experience to construct them to the high standard they deserve.
As local residents are all too aware of, space can be at a premium in Brighton and Hove, but we are particularly successful at making restrictive spaces appear bigger than they really are, so opening them out to their fullest and often surprising capabilities.
If there is one aspect in which the Langlea name has truly established itself, then it’s with our work in the often full-scale reconstruction of what must be our favourite types of spaces to renew, and we’re fortunate that Brighton and Hove presents us with a diverse range of scales and challenges.
Successful front garden design requires significant skill and thoughtful attention to detail, as the prime focus is with realising a space which sits perfectly and without interruption or intrusion in the existing surrounding areas, whether public or private.
Town gardens can be more contemporary or classic in style depending upon the interior design. Often many different uses and different experiences are required from this medium sized space.
A strong but simple design concept is required to make in an impact in a large garden. Durability and maintenance must be considered at the outset so the garden is built to last.
All areas of a building present unique design and construction challenges, but perhaps none more so than roof terraces. A terrace with a stunning aspect often requires a light touch so far as landscaping is concerned, as a beautiful view already takes pride of place.
Swimming pool landscaping requires skill and knowledge to integrate paving, copings, pool cover, diving boards and planting. Paving and edgings need to be pleasurable to walk upon barefoot and safe for all users.
