The existing courtyard consisted of a patio with a sunken pond which was looking tired and dated. We were asked to create a more usable space with a modern feel but also for the area to be lower maintenance.

Slate paving and resin bound gravel were chosen to create a smart low maintenance area combined with a water feature.

The midnight blue slate paving gives the new courtyard a contemporary feel whilst being stylish and hard wearing.

Resin bound gravel provides the perfect attractive low maintenance solution here to provide texture and contrast.

The large water feature and stylish planting provides a stunning centrepiece adding height and interest to the whole area.
