W8 Centre, garden design by Leonie Cornelius
Leonie’s design for W8 village is based around the stunning landscape surrounding the development. Set in wild Leitrim, the design aims to bring the landscape back into the development, creating a strong link to the locale and the native landscape. The exciting perennial scheme, featuring many grasses and wildflowers becomes the heart of the design and is seasonally versatile, encouraging wildlife and surrounding the accommodation, shops and restaurants with a lush wild green landscape.
As an Interior Architect and Garden Designer, Leonie draws inspiration both from the natural prairie planting styles of her local landscape as well as clear architectural lines and symmetries resulting in an exciting synthesis of old and new. Nature and Architecture working in perfect harmony. Her design philosophy is firmly rooted in the belief that purity of beauty and harmony teamed with an ethical and sustainable approach are the highest achievement both within architecture and garden design.
