Like many homes, the interior kitchen area is set towards the back of the house, and has easy access to the yard. While this might be convenient for getting to the grill, it does not necessary make it an outdoor 'destination place'. Ecoscape's designer re-imagined the space so that a new outdoor kitchen has room for meal preparation and places to sit. Colorful plantings replaced the tired old turf, with a Bloodgood Japanese maple as focal point in the sea of 'golden moneywort'. (The tree is young yet, but sports burgundy red leaves that will turn brilliant scarlet in fall. This maple is the perfect size for this application and will mature to 15-20 feet.)

We placed this sitting area to be in a beautiful view of the upper deck space as the homeowners wished to be able to look out and down on this when not in use. We crafted the outdoor fireplace with granite wood boxes and framed the sitting area with the two small sitting walls.

Sited on the shores of Lake Minnetonka, this backyard was full of potential. Although there was plenty of space, the entertainment area was limited to the deck or the space below. The feeling was disjointed and the homeowners came to Southview looking for a cohesive entertainment space with a sense of flow. Photography by John Wiese

This multipurpose space now gives the homeowners plenty of room to cook, entertain, and relax. The patio space was completed using Sandstone colored Banas Stones pavers. The fireplace and counter space were built using Cultured Stone in Chardonnay Limestone. To make this project come to life we had to remove the existing backyard landscaping, install a concrete base, connect gas lines, and run electric out to the kitchen. Before the backyard just housed a plain concrete slab where the homeowner kept their patio set. Now, the space has character as well as function. The pavers used in the patio create an artful design and play off the stone used in the counter and fireplace.

Traditional Garden with a Fireplace Ideas and Designs

A beautifully designed traditional garden is as important as the emphasis we place on the designs of our interiors. After all, our grounds (however modest) frame our homes and contribute to first impressions not only of our houses, but also of the households within. Options for garden designs can be as elaborate or low maintenance as your lifestyle and preferences permit – consider both your aspirations for how it should look and how much time you can invest in garden maintenance. Consulting a gardener or landscape designer will ensure you have a garden that suits your lifestyle, the local climate and soil conditions. But don’t forget that with Houzz your first stop can be collecting images of garden ideas and designs you love in order to inspire your garden plans and potentially share them with a landscape gardening professional.

How do I come up with a traditional front garden design?

The priority for a front garden is kerb appeal. Begin by considering the area immediately around and leading up to your front door. You may want to opt for front garden designs that blend well with the style of your home – for example, abundant foliage and flowerbeds will perfectly complement a period property, whereas man-made materials, geometric shapes and contrasting textures are great ideas for a contemporary garden design. Even if your front garden is a small space, keep it tidy – if you have more space, make the most of it with garden ideas and features such as a manicured lawn, gravel driveway, water feature or garden fencing. If you don’t have the time or commitment to devote to gardening, then neatly pruned hedges, statement paving, hanging baskets, garden benches and outdoor lighting are all decorative, low maintenance garden ideas for your traditional front garden design.

How should I design my traditional back garden?

Back gardens typically offer more space than front garden designs and serve a more recreational purpose, so it’s important to know how you want to spend time in your garden before you design it in order to build in the features that you will enjoy. If you love relaxing in the garden and dining al fresco, think about patios, decking, garden furniture and BBQs. For the more horticulturally-inclined, incorporate flower beds, greenhouses or vegetable garden designs. Your landscape gardening professional can help you install structures such as sheds, pergolas and gazebos that complement your garden design, and artfully-placed garden ideas such as lawn edging and lighting will add definition to your chosen design.

How do I create a low maintenance garden?

The great news is, gardens aren’t exclusively for the green-fingered. Whether you’re not horticulturally-inclined or simply don’t have the time for a bit of landscape gardening, you can still have a traditional garden design that looks the way you want by making some smart design choices. While many of us favour low maintenance gardens like urban gardens, roof terraces and patio gardens, lovers of greenery don’t need to sacrifice grass for paving slabs. Whatever you want from your garden, there are a variety of gardening solutions that can be built in to make life easier. For example, labour intensive features such as vegetable patches, greenhouses and flower beds can be optimised with an automatic irrigation system. These can be offset with fuss-free garden ideas such as hard landscaping, including gravel, paving or decking, and hard-wearing evergreens that require minimal upkeep. You might even consider replacing your garden fencing with slow growing hedging, which can be maintained less regularly than wooden fence panels. If having a lawn is important, there are different types of grasses in varying degrees of durability and maintenance. You may choose to take a more relaxed approach to your lawn – “wild” garden designs can have great charm if the grasses and flowers are chosen carefully. If you prefer a manicured lawn, it’s a good idea to invest in a “mulching” lawn mower that will recycle clippings and remove the need for cleaning up. Finally, there isn’t a more low maintenance garden lawn than artificial grass which can look highly realistic and keep your garden looking green. Garden ornaments are a great way to add interest to your low maintenance garden design – go for smart garden ideas such as solar garden lights which are both decorative and functional.
