Cleary gottlieb: time for creativity
What might be achieved in an environment free from distractions? With a greenhouse packed with books and crafts, and peaceful seating areas surrounded by pollinator-friendly plants, the garden is a place to unplug from the digital modern world and unwind in nature.
Our walk through glasshouse was an integral part of this concept with Gardens Illustrated noting “Perhaps the most notable feature is the walkthrough glasshouse, which will be stocked with books, paints, papers and fabrics.”
What do people say?
“A greenhouse to die for”
Toby Buckland, BBC Gardener’s World
“It’s very beautifully made, I would use it as a greenhouse.”
Monty Dom, BBC Gardener’s World
Bespoke oak buildings
Crafted by hand in the heart of the Surrey Hills, each oak building is made using traditional timber-framing techniques with classic mortice and tenon joints. Only the finest structural-grade oak is used, carefully selected by Nick from trusted English timber suppliers, often locally sourced wherever possible.
Every piece of oak is chosen with great care to suit the individual project, while each joint is hand-made to ensure a perfect fit and authentic finish. Before delivery, every greenhouse is fully pre-assembled to guarantee exceptional craftsmanship and optimum accuracy on site.
As a natural material, oak will gently shift and settle over time, developing subtle shakes and twists that enhance its unique character and create the timeless beauty only genuine oak framing can offer.
Chelsea Glasshouse
Inspired by the prestigious RHS Chelsea Flower Show, the Chelsea Glasshouse is available in a range of sizes, to suit your needs: starting with the three-bay (1.6M) and extending up to nine bay (4.8M).
The standard width of 1.9 metres has been carefully designed to accommodate the angled toughened glass, creating an elegant and practical growing space.
Each greenhouse is individually handcrafted to provide decades of enjoyment. Over time, the oak matures into a beautiful silvery-grey patina, allowing the structure to blend naturally and gracefully into its surroundings.
