For this villa in Breda, designed by Van Erk Ontwerpbureau, Van den Berk Boomkwekerijen supplied the trees for the garden designed by landscape architect Erik Knops (Knops Tuindesign). Our advisor Rob Linkels guided this project.

The designer was looking for a seamless transition between the garden and the house, carrying the same materials used in the garden design through to the exterior of the home. Mature trees several meters high along the paths to the pool house were deliberately purchased in a fully grown form, so the garden had immediate impact rather than waiting years to establish itself.

The garden has four terraces, each oriented toward a different time of day or activity: lounging, breakfast, coffee. Tall hedges form the actual boundary with the surrounding plots.
