A new building has been placed in the Oude Dorp of Houten with 45 luxury park apartments in a spacious garden. We have designed the garden in close consultation with the (future) residents. We have made strenuous efforts to preserve the large trees already there so that the garden will immediately have a mature appearance. A few new trees will be planted as well.

The garden is enclosed by a hedge and comprises large segments with ornamental grasses and perennials. A lot of spring bulbs have been included in the grass to make the garden attractive right from early spring. At the request of the future residents, a strip for jeu de boules has been incorporated. They already played a part in deciding where to put the benches.

To ensure the unity of the garden on all sides of the building, we have deployed oval shapes that are repeated all over the garden. The elegant paths have been made of attractive dark-brown bricks. The apartment residents are pleased with their garden and will maintain it themselves.
