Ce petit jardin de campagne entouré de murs en pierre se devait d’accueillir une grande famille : Une grande terrasse en bois a été créée surélevée d’une marche pour se différencier des circulations. L’allée pour signifier la porte d’entrée de la maison a été réalisée en pavés. Un espace salon détente s’est invité naturellement. Quelques massifs aux abords de ces espaces de vie, un peu de pelouse vers la dépendance et nous voici dans un jardin accueillant et convivial.

Like no other planter you've ever seen, this three-tiered structure allows you to create a unique piece of living architecture anywhere in your garden or outdoor-living area. As well made as it is attractive, this innovative planter is constructed of 100% Western Red Cedar that's naturally decay resistant. The corner joints are reinforced for increased durability. The Cascadia Planter comes with multiple installation options, which allows you to get the exact look you're wanting. It's perfect for creating a unique focal point, even in the off-season when it isn't overflowing with blooms. Proudly crafted in the USA, this decorative and fully functional planter holds approximately 4 cu. ft. of soil. If it is going to be displayed on a deck or other non-porous surface, it is recommended that a plastic liner (not included) be placed under the base tier. Assembly and care instructions included. Overall dimensions: 28" W x 28" D x 15" H. Tier dimensions: Large - 28" x 28"; Medium - 20" x 20"; Small - 12" x 12".

The extension of this handsome Edwardian House, located in the Royal Tunbridge Wells Boyne Park Conservation Area, includes a large open-plan kitchen and living area overlooking the garden, a new utility area and a new master bedroom. This is combined with a general program of refurbishment and re-configuration throughout. With the extension acting as a modern services ‘plug-in’ for the house, the sustainable credentials of the property are improved by increasing the distribution of natural light, upgrading the fabric of the building and providing a completely new heating and services strategy. This project was shortlisted for an RIBA award in 2014.

The major objective of this home was to craft something entirely unique; based on our client’s international travels, and tailored to their ideal lifestyle. Every detail, selection and method was individual to this project. The design included personal touches like a dog shower for their Great Dane, a bar downstairs to entertain, and a TV tucked away in the den instead of on display in the living room. Great design doesn’t just happen. It’s a product of work, thought and exploration. For our clients, they looked to hotels they love in New York and Croatia, Danish design, and buildings that are architecturally artistic and ideal for displaying art. Our part was to take these ideas and actually build them. Every door knob, hinge, material, color, etc. was meticulously researched and crafted. Most of the selections are custom built either by us, or by hired craftsman.

Black Patio with Decking Ideas and Designs

Patios are the go-to solution for turning your garden, or part of it, into an outdoor living area. A well-laid patio will integrate your home seamlessly into your garden, providing a solid and level surface for garden furniture and potted plants. Well designed patios are about more than just paving slabs – its positioning and layout are crucial to how much you enjoy this space. Before you start picking out patio ideas for materials and laying your patio, ask yourself important questions such as what will you use it for? How many people should it accommodate? Which part of your garden has the best aspect and sunlight? Will the patio have enough privacy?

How should I position my patio?

If you are designing your patio as a space for entertaining then make sure it’s wide enough for the garden furniture you want so you haven’t got guests tipping over into the flowerbeds. Don’t be wedded to the idea of having your patio attached to the house; think about positioning yours elsewhere in the garden if that space doesn’t offer the best aspect or lighting position. Consider the position of the sun through the course of the day and depending on whether you are most likely to want to dine outside at breakfast, have lunch on your patio or host dinner outside, you may want to position your patio differently. You can connect patios to your house with a footpath or stepping stones to allow easy transportation of food and drink.

How should I design and lay my patio?

Rectangles are the classic shape for patios, not least because they make the most efficient use of space and can be softened with garden edging. However, a rounded patio or a paving circle can perfectly complement a garden which isn’t linear in design. Paving slabs come in an extensive range of materials and are the most practical surface for patios. Yorkstone has the most traditional appeal, whereas concrete blocks, granite and slate patio slabs have a great texture and colour for modern gardens. Natural stones such as limestone, travertine and Indian sandstone vary in colour and finish and are a great way to add shade and texture to your patio. For some patio ideas that offer an alternative to block paving, loose material such as crushed stone and wood chippings have a rustic and more casual feel; if there are specific materials that re-occur elsewhere in the garden, you could repeat this in your choice of patio materials for consistency. Finally, it’s not a British summer without the great British barbeque, so look at patio ideas that incorporate barbeques and think about how you could accommodate one on your patio.

What garden furniture does my patio need?

Rattan garden furniture is a patio favourite, offering a durable, attractive finish that blends well into natural surroundings. Metal garden furniture and wooden garden furniture are sturdy alternatives available in many styles. Weight is a good feature in garden furniture to stop it from being blown away, but if you want to be able to move your furniture around the patio and garden to follow the sun you won’t want to go too heavy. Browse the various patio ideas that include garden furniture to see what styles of furniture go with different types of patios. If you find a particular patio set you like, you may be able to ask the designer where the furniture is from so you can look at buying the same set for your patio. Good, outdoor patio furniture crafted in high-quality materials should withstand bad weather, but cold, wet British winters followed by strong sun in the summer will be enough to weather even the best furniture, so it’s important to have somewhere, such as a shed, to store it when not in use for long periods of time. If you don’t have the space to store patio furniture, make sure that at least the cushions and umbrellas are stowed away out of the elements, and consider investing in a waterproof cover. One piece of furniture that might be able to stay out for a bit longer is a patio heater; it will warm any brave patio users and most modern designs are built to survive the cold weather. If you prefer something a bit more rustic than a patio heater, look at fire pits instead which will add warmth and an attractive centrepiece to your patio. If privacy or shade is an issue, then covering patio furniture with a parasol or sheltering patios with a gazebo or pergola are both smart patio ideas – these can be covered in climbing flowers or even wound with outdoor fairy lights for romantic evening lighting.
