We would all love a nice big house and huge garden, but the reality is that for most of us we have to settle with what we’ve got. As a landscape gardener I visit many properties and I often get asked to design a garden that helps create more living space. This is something that I love to do because the results are always so pleasing.
Creating the Illusion
How can I make your garden appear to be a natural extension to your home? The clever trick is to continue space from inside to out. What I could do is, directly outside your French or patio doors, build a lovely decking area so that when the doors are opened there is immediately space where you can put a BBQ or table and chairs, meaning it will look and feel like a conservatory or extension, just without the roof and hefty price tag attached.
To complement this I’d add a lighting scheme so that an intimate feel can be created once the sun goes down. It really will look like you have an extra room to your home, except it’ll be nice and cool and perfect for relaxing on those warm summer evenings.
If you need some expert help with a landscaping project this year, don’t delay in asking us for a free, no obligation consultation on just what we can do for you and your garden.
