Already partially enclosed by an ipe fence and concrete wall, our client had a vision of an outdoor courtyard for entertaining on warm summer evenings since the space would be shaded by the house in the afternoon. He imagined the space with a water feature, lighting and paving surrounded by plants.
With our marching orders in place, we drew up a schematic plan quickly and met to review two options for the space. These options quickly coalesced and combined into a single vision for the space. A thick, 60” tall concrete wall would enclose the opening to the street – creating privacy and security, and making a bold statement. We knew the gate had to be interesting enough to stand up to the large concrete walls on either side, so we designed and had custom fabricated by Dennis Schleder (www.dennisschleder.com) a beautiful, visually dynamic metal gate.
Other touches include drought tolerant planting, bluestone paving with pebble accents, crushed granite paving, LED accent lighting, and outdoor furniture. Both existing trees were retained and are thriving with their new soil.

A sunny, Mediterranean style garden with colourful features.
With a grey porcelain tile patio, laid in stretcher pattern across the width of the garden directly outside the back door and to the right of this area, a wide raised bed constructed from treated softwood railway sleepers.
A painted aluminium storage box at the end of the side return allows waterproof storage for kids toys and other garden items.
The middle section of the garden features a wide yellow Balau hardwood deck stretching across the width of the garden, enclosed by a simple yellow Balau timber pergola at one end. This pergola will include a decorative panel along the back comprising horizontal slats of yellow balau decking.
The rear of the space hosts a second grey porcelain patio with an L-shaped railway sleeper raised bed in the bottom left corner.
The left hand boundary is clad with 150mm wide tongue and groove ‘Shou-Sugi-Ban’ Japanese charred timber wall cladding, installed vertically to create an eye-catching backdrop.
The middle section of the left boundary is clad with yellow balau boards to match the decorative panel on the pergola. The left boundary wall at the rear is rendered and painted a vibrant turquoise shade.
The rear right boundary beyond the pergola structure is clad with panels of Perspex ‘Naturals’. The rest of the boundary fences/walls are painted with Cuprinol Garden Shades garden paint.
Two tall evergreen standard trees will provide screening along the back of the garden. Several GRP fibreglass planters will add an extra dash of colour to the design.

The overall goal of this property is to increase curb appeal and privacy in the front yard and create a tropical entertaining space in the backyard. An Areca Palm hedge is proposed along the roadway for privacy in the front yard. This type of treatment creates a visual buffer with the desired tropical aesthetic. Planter beds are proposed at the driveway along the street as well as in the corner near the intersection. Specimen palms and colorful shrubs are proposed in these beds. A paver patio is proposed off the sunroom double doors with a modern aluminum pergola. A screen wall along the backside of the pergola will block views to the shed while enjoying the outdoor lounge area. A built-in grill area with a bar counter and outdoor dining table is proposed to the right of the lounge area. A paver patio wraps the perimeter of the pool with the opportunity for lounge areas. Plants such as Traveller’s Palm, Foxtail Palm, Blue Capewort, and Coontie have been proposed throughout the yard to achieve a tropical modern aesthetic.
