Orchard Lisle Courtyard, Guy's and St Thomas' Hospital

Designer: Annie Chapman

Awards: Winner of BALI Principal Award 2014

Project Details: We were very excited to build a new courtyard garden for the student accommodation for Guys & St Thomas' Charity. The garden, accessible to the public, opened in April 2017 and has been designed by Annie Chapman of Verde Design. The work was challenging, with a complex layout and difficult winter conditions, but the results have been worth it. High quality materials including bespoke cut yorkstone and hardwood benches combine with a simple planting palette to make a peaceful retreat from the pace and bustle of London Bridge.
