White stones make up the ground surface beyond the timber decking. The internal courtyard off the dining area provides light and air from outside also helping to regulate the temperature of the house.

Pasillo lateral reconvertido en salón exterior

UN JARDIN PARA MI

UN PASILLO LATERAL RECONVERTIDO EN SALÓN EXTERIOR En este proyecto de salón exterior, la parcela presentaba una configuración clásica en ELE de chalet pareado. Las calidades son bonitas y el aplacado en piedra junto con el hormigón de los forjados nos daban la posibilidad de contrastar con la calidez de la madera, el acero corten y el tono oscuro de las gravas que nos gustan. El corredor lateral no invitaba al uso, pero tenía dimensión suficiente para crear una habitación exterior resguardada del calor intenso de la tarde, disfrutando de una orientación casi norte. En España en general, pero en las zonas continentales aún más, es crucial disponer de varias orientaciones en el jardín para maximizar el uso durante el año. La zona principal del jardín, a la salida del salón, está más expuesta al sol de la tarde, con lo que la hemos reservado más para la vida nocturna y los días invernales. Para competir con la valla de simple torsión hemos plantado un seto de photinia que crece a una velocidad considerable y no presenta enfermedades, aportando además variedad de colores verdes y rojizos que nos encantan en la paleta de color del jardín. Hemos conseguido desviar la atención desde los tres metros de altura de la valla al suelo, gracias a los parterres y la celosía lateral, con lo que la espera hasta que los setos alcancen la altura de la valla se hace más agradable.

We increased the sense of space by hanging a cast iron window frame cleverly backed by mirror. A neat trick we often use.

White Courtyard Garden Design Ideas

Get Inspired by 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 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 a Garden for Your Home

Depending on which style you’re going for, be sure to know what makes a 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 a 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 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.
