The Welsh Garden Steps

For this unique landscape design, we created a generous, minimal, and seamless stairway using black clay pavers. The stair connects the top tier of the client’s garden to the middle tier and the lawn below, blending effortlessly with the surrounding environment. The same clay pavers were used for the risers, goings, and side walls, giving the stair a unified aesthetic that gracefully steps down following the natural contours of the landscape.

Designed to meet the client’s brief, the stair ties into the external palette of the house and complements the graphite-colored decking at both garden levels. Integrated warm lighting was added into the side walls, creating a subtle yet striking visual effect that enhances the structure’s form and functionality, particularly at night. The result is a beautiful, cohesive design that harmonises with both the architecture of the home and the natural garden surroundings.
