Owning a garden for the first time can be a
daunting prospect, especially for those not
naturally equipped with green fingers. Interiors
stylist Joanna Thornhill faced such a challenge

she inherited an uninspiring patch of barren
concrete. Her response was to tackle the space
much like any other interiors makeover: tart it
up and style it out!
