Cobblestone Patio with Seatwall in Lehi

Chopper Landscaping

This lovely, circle patio is perfect for long nights in front of the fire. The customer was looking to add an extra curb appeal to their backyard, featuring stone and gravel. We decided to add a circle patio with a seating area and steps to enclosed the future firepit area. We used Belgard Shelton stone in Victorian color.

This project required a call of attention to the architectural details of the home as the main visual focal point. Additional lighting was added to the trees to visually anchor the home to the landscaping. All of the lights used are low voltage, LED lights.

White Cheshire Herb Garden

Adapt Environment

Following a visit to Sissinghurst, the client asked for a white theme Arts and Crafts herb garden for the courtyard of their barn conversion. An antique pot and reclaimed brick was sourced from a reclamation yard and arranged in formal pattern. Highly scented white Roses, herbs and Lavender were added, as planting.

Brighton Backyard Opportunity

Landforms

Brighton backyard oasis. Our client had a beautiful home in the woods with an expansive deck and much-unused space underneath. They were looking to create an outdoor living room. With an extensive design, we tripled their outdoor-entertaining area. We added a large dining area, a lounge area under the deck, and a fire pit with a seating wall to keep things cozy on crisp fall nights. We tied the new space to the deck and walkout basement using large format pavers with a contrasting border. A pachysandra border kept the transition from hardscape to softscape neat and clean.

Urban English Garden

Beyond Landscaping

We created the dry stack stone walls to look like they’ve always been there, making them reminiscent of stone walls in England. By eliminating the steep front steps and adding a landing, this front entrance feels more welcoming. It is overflowing with shade-loving plants for year-round interest.

Driveway Extension & Entry

CA Yardscape

Issue: Client needed additional parking and more space for entry. Solution: Removed old weathered concrete walk from beside existing driveway. Removed dated and broken light. Used Courtstone from Unilock as accent band while expanding entry and providing additional parking for guests.

Arts and Crafts Garden Design Ideas with Brick Pavers

Get Inspired by Arts and Crafts Gardens on Houzz

A lot of the time when you get home from a long day at work, all you want to do is wind down. Where better to do this than in your very own arts and crafts garden at home? If you do it right, a great garden design can send you right into holiday mode. But where to start? There’s so many styles to choose from when it comes to garden design. Whether you want to create a tropical, modern, contemporary, beach style or country garden - or something else entirely - the large garden image gallery on Houzz has got you covered. Get inspired and collect your ideas to narrow down your desired garden style and features.

How to Create an Arts and Crafts Garden for Your Home

Depending on which style you’re going for, be sure to know what makes an arts and crafts garden and if it’s appropriate for your climate. You may want to consider adding a deck or other landscaping features, but the plants you choose will mostly dictate your style and what kind of ongoing maintenance is required. Don’t worry if your backyard isn’t very spacious - there are many plants that can thrive even in a small space and allow you to turn your space into a little paradise of your own, regardless of size.

Decide which plants to use

The greenery you choose is critical to your look. For example, if you’re trying to create a tropical garden palm trees and bamboo are your go-to options. Other popular options are golden cane palm trees and fern for ground cover. From there you can add some colour with bright flowers like frangipani, hibiscus or bromeliads. All these are actually quite hardy plants, so once established, your tropical garden is actually quite easy to maintain. Use this structure and apply it to your style. Research which plants you need to set your base for an arts and crafts garden and go from there.

Add some decor

If the plants don’t quite do it for you yet, or if you want to add some extra wow-factor, consider adding some extra features. Even if you can’t accommodate a swimming pool, hot tub or pond, you could look at smaller water features. Simple rocks can also have a great effect, while statues and gnomes will add some extra character. Don’t forget to add some furniture so you have a nice place to sit and enjoy your garden!

Need some help?

Once you know what you want your garden to look like, it may be hard to make it a reality on your own. If that is the case for you, consider consulting a professional to help you with your arts and crafts garden design. Every photo you find on Houzz will lead you to the local pro that did the job, so you won’t have a problem picking the perfect person to help! Whether you need a gardener in Brisbane, a landscape architect in Melbourne or a fireplace installer in Sydney, you can be sure to find one on Houzz.
