Outdoor room

This very small town garden in north London measured less than 20 square metres. We had to come up with some great design ideas to maximise the space. The landscapers built boundary walls and a focal point feature at the rear of the garden to transform this tiny garden.

This garden design was commissioned by a young professional male who works long hours, has a busy social life and no time for gardening! He requested a very low maintenance outdoor room in which to entertain friends and guests during the evening times and at weekends. The garden measured only 6 x 3.5 metres, so it was essential to maximize the outdoor living space.

Landscaping

We laid limestone outer edging and inset with Ipe hardwood decking to increase the sense of depth. The contemporary theme was continued by building square raised planters and rendering the old brick wall at the rear of the garden. We set a simple stainless steel feature, providing a central focal point and the peaceful sound of water cascading onto the pebbles below.
