In this 1 hour illustrated talk, Gordon Hayward shares his ideas about how to design a garden room – that is, a comforting and somewhat enclosed place within your existing larger garden. A garden room is a welcoming and embracing outdoor place, a place to be with friends and family or alone. It is a living place to tend, a place with chairs or benches and “windows” – that is, views framed by flowering and evergreen shrubs and perennials, views that look out into other parts of your garden. Flowering shrubs and perennials provide fragrance, color, vitality; perhaps overhanging branches act as a ceiling, stones or brick a floor. Birds add their own magic. Join Gordon as he shares pictures of several garden rooms he and his wife Mary have created over the last 40 years in their own garden in Westminster West as well as those of his clients across the country.
