BLUE Renovation & Landscape
Design ideas for a contemporary backyard garden in Austin with a container garden.
Courtney Thomas Design
We planned a thoughtful redesign of this beautiful home while retaining many of the existing features. We wanted this house to feel the immediacy of its environment. So we carried the exterior front entry style into the interiors, too, as a way to bring the beautiful outdoors in. In addition, we added patios to all the bedrooms to make them feel much bigger. Luckily for us, our temperate California climate makes it possible for the patios to be used consistently throughout the year.
The original kitchen design did not have exposed beams, but we decided to replicate the motif of the 30" living room beams in the kitchen as well, making it one of our favorite details of the house. To make the kitchen more functional, we added a second island allowing us to separate kitchen tasks. The sink island works as a food prep area, and the bar island is for mail, crafts, and quick snacks.
We designed the primary bedroom as a relaxation sanctuary – something we highly recommend to all parents. It features some of our favorite things: a cognac leather reading chair next to a fireplace, Scottish plaid fabrics, a vegetable dye rug, art from our favorite cities, and goofy portraits of the kids.

HYBRE ARCHITECTE
Pour la rénovation de cette maison de 350 m2, nous avons conservé le caractère historique du lieu tout en intégrant des éléments modernes.
A l’extérieur, nous avons choisi de recouvrir les murs de la terrasse de briquettes fines posées à l’ancienne avec la technique de la corde, afin de faire de la terrasse un espace chaleureux et de créer un contraste avec la pierre blonde d’Aquitaine.
Le cœur de la maison se situe à l’étage. Dans la partie séjour, entièrement refaite, une succession de menuiseries en acier donne un esprit atelier à la pièce baignée de lumière. La cheminée y est parfaitement intégrée dans un coffrage en bois qui occupe tout un mur.

Check out the spectacular views on this Brooklyn rooftop garden! Our design included a total makeover of a previously barren space, including replacing the dingy looking concrete pavers with ipe wood deck tiles. We also designed a custom L-shaped ipe bench with seats that lift up for storage and planters filled with soft grasses built into the back of the bench. The lush looking plantings in this garden are in a mix of ipe and fiberglass pots and include Tardiva hydrangeas, white multi-stem birch trees, Mexican feather grasses, boxwoods, angelonia, purple coneflower, and a weeping redbud tree. The planters are illuminated with LED low-voltage up-lights for a dramatic nighttime effect.

Small courtyards and outdoor spaces can be just as homely as large gardens and should be seen as an extension of the interior. By picking out the planting with a couple of spiked garden lights and highlighting the brick wall texture with wall downlights, you can draw focus to the elements you want to see.
