Tribeca Duplex
This garden’s minimal planting palette is both visually impactful and practical. Pleached Hornbeams create a living screen for privacy from neighboring buildings; sculptured Boxwoods contribute evergreen interest; a single specimen Maple provides a visual backdrop to the adjoining foyer; and the Nepeta underplanting – frequented by pollinators – is sheared mid-summer to produce a second flourish of lavender flowers in the early Autumn.

The planting is enhanced by limestone paving, warm timber-clad planters and textural hand-made clay pots. A custom outdoor kitchen with a grill makes the terrace a true extension of the interior – an outdoor oasis to be enjoyed throughout the seasons.
