The rear garden is designed for entertaining, with outdoor dining, a built-in barbecue and an outdoor fireplace creating a series of spaces for gathering throughout the year.

This luxury rooftop garden in London showcases contemporary outdoor living at its finest. The design centres around a bespoke Grillo outdoor kitchen, generous dining and lounge spaces, architectural planting, premium porcelain paving and carefully integrated lighting. Created to maximise entertaining and relaxation while framing spectacular skyline views, the garden combines exceptional craftsmanship, elegant materials and timeless contemporary design

The landscape of Provence provides much of the sensory and textural inspiration for this project: from the earthy terracotta hills to the blue-gold flashes of lavender on a beautiful ceramic piece, this project was designed to create a sense of refuge and tranquility.

The beautiful and modern holiday home near Dorchester features our pergola to the rooftop terrace that provides stunning views. The bespoke pergola was designed and engineered to span to the full width over the outdoor kitchen and provide shelter from rain, wind and the sun. It features rotating louvres along with perimeter LED lighting, vertical tension blinds and external heaters, all of which are manually operated via remote.

Under a fully automated bio-climatic pergola, a dining area and outdoor kitchen have been created on a raised composite deck. The kitchen is fully equipped with SubZero Wolf appliances, outdoor pizza oven, warming drawer, barbecue and sink, with a granite worktop. Heaters and screens help to keep the party going into the evening, as well as lights incorporated into the pergola, whose slats can open and close electronically. A decorative screen creates an enhanced backdrop and ties into the pattern on the 'decorative rug' around the firebowl.

Samuel Moore, owner of Consilium Hortus, is renowned for creating beautiful, bespoke outdoor spaces which are designed specifically to meet his client’s tastes. Taking inspiration from landscapes, architecture, art, design and nature, Samuel meets briefs and creates stunning projects in gardens and spaces of all sizes. This recent project in Colchester, Essex, had a brief to create a fully equipped outdoor entertaining area. With a desire for an extension of their home, Samuel has created a space that can be enjoyed throughout the seasons. A louvered pergola covers the full length of the back of the house. Despite being a permanent structural cover, the roof, which can turn 160 degrees, enables the sun to be chased as it moves throughout the day. Heaters and lights have been incorporated for those colder months, so those chillier days and evenings can still be spent outdoors. The slatted feature wall, not only matches the extended outdoor table but also provides a backdrop for the Outdoor Kitchen drawing out its Iroko Hardwood details. For a couple who love to entertain, it was obvious that a trio of cooking appliances needed to be incorporated into the outdoor kitchen design. Featuring our Gusto, the Bull BBQ and the Deli Vita Pizza Oven, the pair and their guests are spoilt for choice when it comes to alfresco dining. The addition of our single outdoor fridge also ensures that glasses are never empty, whatever the tipple.
