Keith Dawson's house and garden for Modern Rustic magazine, No 22

Photography and words Claire Bingham.

There aren’t many people you come across with such a unique and singular aesthetic but Keith Dawson is one. Featured in the No. 22 edition of Country Living Modern Rustic magazine, his home and garden manages to combine all the best juxtapositions: modern with rustic, simplicity with ornate, dark with light. His garden is just as interesting and rich in ideas. Here, he favours structural forms and an evergreen palette over cottage garden blossomy blooms. It’s a lesson in consideration and restraint - something he carries over into his landscape design business Growen.
