Extension de maison des années 60 - surélevée

HU-30188382

D’un point de vue esthétique, il apporte de la chaleur et fait ressortir l’environnement naturel dans lequel se trouve l’habitation. Pour profiter de ce magnifique paysage, 2 baies-vitrées coulissantes ont été installées. Il s’agit d’une baie-vitrée 3 ventaux et d’une 4 ventaux. Pour être en accord avec l’ensemble de la maison, les fenêtres sont en alucobond noir sablé à l’extérieur comme à l’intérieur. Les ouvertures des baies coulissantes s’effectuent à l’aide d’une poignée intérieure pour plus de simplicité. Cette pièce de vie dessert un sas qui permet d’avoir accès à la suite parentale.

The previous state of the client's backyard did not function as they needed it to, nor did it reflect their taste. They wanted enough space for entertaining company, but also somewhere comfortable to relax just the two of them. They wanted to display some of their unique sculptures, which we needed to consider throughout the design. A pergola off the house created an intimate space for them to unwind with a cup of coffee in the morning. A few steps away is a second lounge area with a fire feature, this was designed to accommodate for the grade change of the yard. Walls and steps frame the space and tie into the built vegetable beds. From any angle of the property you are able to look onto green garden beds, which create a soft division in front of the new fencing and is the perfect way to add colour back into the landscape.

Rénovation complète d'une Terrasse à Morainvilliers

Atelier Concept

Il s'agissait de rénover entièrement la terrasse de cette maison en pierre en coeur de village , tout en lui redonnant du cachet et en valorisant la maison. Les travaux consistaient donc à déposer la terrasse en bois , conserver la glycine en changeant la pergola , ajouter un jardinet , conserver le barbecue Weber ,créer l’ éclairage et réaliser un aménagement paysager moderne . J’ai donc choisi de faire la terrasse en pavés colorés dans les tons pierre avec le joint créme , ce qui apporte une grande luminosité à la terrasse .La nouvelle pergola fait toute la longueur et permet maintenant à la glycine de courir sur toute la surface . Elle comprends 2 espaces détente , une zone avec des fauteuils en rotin suspendus et de l’autre le coin canapés .Les canapés sont en bois sur mesure avec coffres sous les coussins . Et il ya des jardinières bois sur toute la longueur avec des plantes de mi-ombre. D’autres jardinières bois sont crées et installées sur le côté opposé pour apporter une finition de qualité. Un petit jardinet à été installé au fond de la terrasse . Les plates-bandes et le jardinet sont délimités par une bordure bois. Seuls la Glycine et deux grands arbres ont étés conservés pour compléter l’amènagement paysagé coloré . Le coin barbecue est composé de jardinières bois a différentes hauteurs contenant entre autre des bacs contenant des aromatiques et des fraisiers.Et il y a une tablette rabatable servant de desserte au barbecue . Pour l’éclairage , des guirlandes guingettes viennent parfaire le style campagne chic de cette terrasse conviviale qui apporte une vrai plus-value à cette maison de charme .

Patio Design Ideas with a Vegetable Garden

A patio is a paved outdoor area that adjoins a house, and is a popular addition to Australian and New Zealand homes. Not only is it yet another place to enjoy the great outdoors, but it can also save you time and money on landscaping. Often seen as an extension of the indoor living space, patios and courtyards can serve multiple functions. If you add outdoor furniture such as lounge chairs and a sofa, a barbecue or outdoor kitchen and a dining table and chairs, you can use them for entertaining, cooking, dining, and relaxing. Browse the Photos on Houzz for courtyard and patio designs to see how you can best utilise your existing outdoor area.

What materials should I use to construct my patio?

Stone pavers and bricks are the most common surface materials used for patios, while concrete, tiles and gravel are also popular. Stone paving is usually at the top end of the price bracket, but is highly durable and the most natural-looking of the surface materials available. Brick patios, on the other hand, are relatively easy to lay, and provide a warm, rich colour that can complement traditional homes. Concrete patios are one of the least expensive to build and are also very durable, while gravel is quick and easy to install. You will also need to decide whether you want your patio covered or left uncovered. You can add roofing if you plan on using the space regularly, or opt for a pergola, trellis or umbrella for shade instead. Patio enclosures, usually made from glass or mesh screens, can also transform your space into an outdoor room.

What outdoor patio furniture and decor should I include?

A patio can be so much more than just a paved slab, if you add the right additions. An outdoor kitchen and bar will help make the space the life of the party, while high-quality, low-slung chairs will make you want to stay outside for longer. If you have the budget, you may even consider adding a spa or pool. To make it the ideal al fresco area even when temperatures drop, a fire pit or fireplace will be able to keep you and your company toasty warm. To entice you and your guests into the space, make some room for greenery, even if you just a place a pot plant atop a table. It will help tie in the area to the surrounding garden. Fairy lights, garden torches and citronella candles will also help set the mood and keep the mozzies at bay, while soft furnishings such as waterproof rugs, pillows and chair cushions will add personality. For something striking, consider adding a water feature or wall garden. If you're ready to hire a landscape professional to help you with the job, browse our directory here!
