The client’s brief for this garden was to make a low-maintenance outdoor space the family could truly enjoy. So our design for it focused on how it would be actually used, rather than on a traditional lawn.

At the back, a pergola creates a secluded corner that feels private without being confined, while the deck below it has become one of the garden’s most loved spots – romantic in the evening light, perfect for morning coffee, and just as good for winding down after dark.

The patio adjacent to the house is finished in porcelain tiles and clay pavers for a warm and grounded feel, and features a built-in outdoor kitchen where the family can gather with friends, cook together, and share long summer evenings.

Overall, it’s proof that a family garden doesn't need a lawn to be inviting, convivial, and ideal for everyday use.
