Landscape design and build in Meydan

Many Meydan homes are townhouses or semi-detached villas, where the garden is a narrow strip or an L around the house. We design those gardens in 3D so every metre has a job, then build them with our own team.

DESIGNING A

Designing a garden where the plot is tight

Meydan is known for its racecourse, but around it sit residential neighbourhoods. According to Meydan's real estate website, its portfolio includes villas, townhouses and apartments, among them a townhouse community called Meydan Heights and Meydan Villas, a neighbourhood planned as four-bedroom semi-detached villas. Homes like these share a wall with a neighbour and usually have a garden on one or two sides rather than all the way round. That changes the design question. In a large garden you decide where things go; in a compact one you decide what to leave out.

DESIGN MOVES

Design moves that suit Meydan's townhouse and semi-detached gardens

01

One main outdoor room

Rather than three small zones, one well-shaded seating or dining area sized for the family, with the rest of the garden supporting it.

02

Built-in seating and planters

Benches built into planter walls take up less floor than loose furniture and give the boundary a purpose.

03

Using the side return

On semi-detached and end units the side passage can hold a slim herb bed, a utility area or an outdoor shower instead of becoming a store for bins.

04

Vertical green

Climbers, planted walls and tall narrow trees bring planting to a garden that has little ground to spare.

05

A compact outdoor kitchen

A BBQ counter with cabinets along one wall, made in our own joinery workshop, keeps cooking out of the seating area.

SEEING A

Seeing a small garden in 3D before it is built

Where a few centimetres decide whether it works

In a narrow garden the difference between a comfortable path and an awkward one can be the width of a planter. Visualization, our third work stage, puts the whole scheme in 3D before execution, so you can check the view from the living room doors, how far a pergola projects, and whether a dining table still fits once people pull their chairs out.

The 3D is also where we look at privacy. Semi-detached and terraced homes are overlooked by the neighbours' upper windows, so screens, shade structures and tree positions are placed against those sightlines, not only against the sun.

FROM FIRST

From first visit to finished garden

01

Project Study

A free site visit to measure the garden, note the shared walls, the side passage and the neighbours' windows, and hear how you want to use the space.

02

Plan

We agree the zones and the features that earn their space, and check which approvals your Meydan neighbourhood needs. We apply for them ourselves.

03

Visualization

The garden in 3D, adjusted with you until the layout and materials are right.

04

Execution

Our in-house team builds what you approved, with one project manager as your contact throughout.

Duration depends on the work. You receive a programme after the site visit.

WHO APPROVES

Who approves garden changes in Meydan

Meydan is made up of several neighbourhoods, and garden works are approved by the master developer or the management of your particular community. We confirm who approves the work for your address and apply for the approvals ourselves.

FAQ

Questions and answers

Have you designed gardens in Meydan before?

The projects on this page are from other Dubai communities with comparable townhouse and villa gardens.

Is a townhouse garden in Meydan worth a full design?

Yes, arguably more than a large one. In a small garden every element competes for space, and a 3D design shows what fits before anything is built.

Can the side passage of a semi-detached villa be used?

Often. Depending on its width and access needs, it can take planting, storage or an outdoor shower. We look at it on the site visit.

Who gives approval for garden works in Meydan?

The master developer or the management of your specific community. We check which applies to your home and apply for the approvals ourselves.

Do you build the design as well?

Yes. The same company designs the garden in 3D and builds it, with one project manager as your contact.

Is the site visit free?

Yes. We visit, measure and discuss the brief at no charge.
