This courtyard was tiny and certainly the smallest project we have taken on!   The client was keen to have a cosy outdoor seating space with bike storage so we couldn’t resist the challenge.

The space was 6m by less than 3m deep so every feature had to justify it’s worth!

The design centred around a beautiful hardwood fitted curved corner seating for the afternoon sun (with storage below) which incorporated the house steps as part of the seating.  A raised planted bed, beautiful limestone stone paver floor in a herringbone pattern, and ground level corner planted bed with s small water feature, some bespoke powder coated steel beams as a contemporary pergola, and a bespoke hardwood bike and log store with a planted green roof.
