Landscaping
… make the space all about the dining set-up and choose a bold design that will make a contemporary statement in the centre of your courtyard.
Side garden
Rock it Well-placed boulders can visually lift your garden. Rocks placed at ascending heights coupled with carefully arranged trees and planting give the impression of rising ground and can also add a lot of depth. Here, broad steps positioned as a man-made element within the rocks add to the effect, so the overall look is anything but flat.
Be a minimalist For a very pared-down look, all of the focus here is on one tree. Its multi-stem trunk is very sculptural and its crown acts as the roof and frame of the space. Living walls and hedges create a subtle green backdrop. Green is one of the calmest colours and, coupled with the grey paving and simple, but beautiful furniture that both echo the lines of the house, the whole space is in harmony.
