Project Overview & Challenge
Managed the operational delivery of a child-friendly cottage courtyard in Balham, employing digital twin 3D modelling to optimise play space and navigating stakeholder relationships to ensure practical, safe outdoor living in this past project. Furthermore, the project featured custom 3D walkthroughs and precise 2D site plans to finalize layouts and materials.
Challenge: Overcame supply chain disruptions for Dijon limestone and enforced strict health & safety compliance for child-safe features, utilising meteorological data to ensure practical, low-maintenance outdoor living.
Hard Landscaping & Soft Landscaping
Hard Landscaping: Coordinated physical logistics and vendor management for Dijon tumbled limestone, ensuring structural engineering compliance for bespoke reclaimed brick planters, utilising Floorplanner.com spatial planning for raised seating.
Soft Landscaping: Inspired by botanical research in the Himalayas, selected Siberian bugloss and giant allium, tracking soil pH via ShootGardening.com to ensure drought adaptations and low-maintenance resilience for child-safe plants.
