If Dylan Thomas was to return to Swansea today, would he still say “An ugly, lovely town … crawling, sprawling … by the side of a long and splendid curving shore. This sea-town was my world.”
Stapel raised planter edge by Logic Manufactured Bespoke was specified by Macgregor Smith Landscape Architecture – Weathering Steel was chosen for its bold colour and robustness , Plateu integrated seating along with Monte integrated loungers were selected to save space and blend effertlesly with the surrounding planting. Bespoke seating unit – UK grown Douglas-Fir timber was chosen due to its sustainability credentials and once weathered blends in well with the surrounding planting.
