Stylish and chic, a contemporary-style garden is one of the most popular choices for domestic gardens, small or large. With a blend of neutral colours, crisp edges, and low-maintenance planting, it’s perfect for the modern family. Here at Oakleigh Manor, we can create beautiful contemporary gardens, designed and built with you in mind.
The use of natural materials is very important in a contemporary-style garden. You will often see muted tones, such as greys, whites and creams, creating an air of simplicity yet enhancing the flawless finish to the garden.
Popular choices of material include:
In a contemporary garden, plants are often contained within beds and neatly manicured. You will often see trimmed box hedges and small pockets of plants surrounding patio/decking areas. Although plants are often a subtle addition in a contemporary garden, the planting is a great way to soften areas of hard materials.

If you would like your garden redesigned by our Design team, simply complete the enquiry form or call the team today. No fees are charged for an initial chat or for most initial site meetings. We will prepare you a written “Design Fee Proposal” prior to proceeding with any charges to you.
So firstly, we will need a little bit of your time to find out a little about your ideas, then we would look to arrange an Initial Site Meeting with one of our designers, at a time convenient to you, preferably at the site location or to view drawings of developing scheme projects. At the meeting, we will listen to your requirements, then suggest the some ideas and provide advice for your project. This will take approximately one hour of your time.
Once we understand your Design requirement, we will submit a Design Fee Proposal for you to consider with no obligation, this will state our Design Fees and the stages of design work we will carry out for you. Our service is tailored to suit you, your home and your requirements so your Design Fee proposal will specify the correct type of survey required, whether you will need to invest into an optional Concept Design stage, and the appropriate stages of the process.
Each Design Package offers the most suitable survey type, a client brief, a conceptual stage if required, finally we will create a large format Master Design together with a Garden Installation Quotation & Specification to construct the new design.
We also provide planning guidance for all projects that require local authority or other permissions.
