UN ANGOLO OUTDOOR DA CONDIVIDERE 60 MQ

Polygona

Per realizzare questo spazio esterno abbiamo sfruttato ogni singolo centimetro a disposizione, ovviamente sempre con particolare attenzione alla fruibilità e funzionalità. Punto cardine del progetto è la pergola bioclimatica posizionata al centro del giardino in posizione rialzata rispetto ai marciapiedi a bordo casa. Questa differenza di altezza ci ha permesso di creare delle sedute sul bordo che abbiamo rivestito con teak della Birmania per una minor manutenzione. Per le scale, la pavimentazione e la fiorera abbiamo optato per un ceppo di gres che ben si armonizza con i colore degli arredi. Un piccolo salottino da esterno crea una zona di relax per la lettura di un libro durante le sere d’estate. La siepe perimetrale oltre a donare un tocco di colore allo spazio circostante, crea privacy all’interno del giardino. Abbiamo scelto di utilizzare il rattan come materiale per le sedie del tavolo da pranzo che ben si fondono con l’alluminio verniciato di bianco del ta volo da pranzo e della pergola. Un progetto outdoor di questo tipo, vi permetterà di evitare problemi e sopratutto di valutare diversi tipi di materialie e finiture.

Nuove idee per un vecchio giardino

Alberto Gualla

Riqualifica di un vecchio giardino. I nostri clienti hanno deciso di voler modificare il vecchio progetto. Abbiamo ingrandito la zona pavimentata con autobloccanti perchè hanno realizzato che necessitavano di una zona living più ampia dove poter inserire un barbeque ed un tavolo più grande che potesse ospitare più commensali. In più abbiamo aggiunto un gazebo in ferro battuto che verrà adibito a zona relax con divano e tavolino. Per garantire il relax, due gelsomini rampicanti che oltre alla bellezza e all'eleganza dei loro fiori, sprigioneranno un profumo che pervaderà l'intero giardino. Abbiamo realizzato delle fioriere in cemento che faranno da contorno a tutta la zona living e doneranno la giusta privacy per godere del giardino in tutti i momenti della giornata. Colorano di lilla invece, tutto il perimetro della casa, una lunga fila di lavande alternate ad hermerocallis. Completano la cornice i loropetalum e le azalee.

Major rear drainage problems prompted our client to call us. They wanted a whole new back yard with space for an outdoor kitchen, spa and a sitting area with a large gas fire pit area. Our main focus, however, was ensuring to get the drainage courses fixed and working properly. From there we could design & build to satisfy their wishes!

A Formal Welcome

Ian Moore Design

The stepped board-formed concrete retaining walls, strong lines of the metal work and the organic character of the native plantings make a strong architectural statement while responding to the original slope. The board-formed concrete is colored with Davis Gray 860 and all of the metal work is painted Anthracite Gray in order to accentuate the strong lines while maintaining a muted color palette. The stairs and railings are capped with Cumaru wood for color warmth and material longevity. The plant palette is composed of predominantly California sun-loving natives - including Manzanita, California Buckwheat, California Poppy, and others - in order to capitalize on the southern exposure and provide a drought resistant landscape into the future.

Modern Garden Design Ideas with a Metal Fence

Get Inspired by Modern 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 modern 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 Modern Garden for Your Home

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