City gardens
City gardens have a green, cohesive and sheltered character. These relatively small and compact gardens, in or close to city centres, are often installed between tall stone walls. They are hidden green oases amidst the hectic urban environment where residents can relax. We therefore make creative use of the available space. Hedges, shrubs and flowering trees guarantee privacy and give these gardens their intimate, sheltered character. The clear cohesion, sweeping movements and well-balanced plant selection create a unique experience in every urban garden!
The urban garden as an extension of your home
A stylishly designed urban garden forms an extension of your home and connects the interior to the exterior. Besides, city gardens greatly increase quality of life in the city, with the comfort and wellbeing of the user being paramount. As such, there is high demand for green oases in the urban environment. Is your city garden in need of an update or a change?
What a city garden asks of a design
A city garden is read from above as much as from the terrace: the windows look down on it, so the plan has to hold its shape all year. Wirtz works with an evergreen structure of clipped hedges and shaped shrubs that carries the garden through winter, and lets the surrounding walls act as a backdrop rather than a limit. Levels, sightlines and the position of a single tree decide how large the space feels. Because every square metre counts, the planting is chosen for what it gives in all four seasons, and for the amount of care the owner is willing to put into it.
