Does your garden currently contain a variety of barren corners that are just waiting to be brought to life with a touch of innovative garden design?
At first glance, garden corners can seem like rather challenging areas to fill, but this is far from the case. Framing beautifully secluded and hidden garden retreats, nifty nooks and corners found within your gardenscape are incredibly valuable areas that can be crafted to perform a variety of functions. Enhancing your landscape with greater privacy and spots for serenity, come with us as we share a few techniques that our garden designers use to create cosy and tranquil garden corners.
Secluded seating areas
Sheltered and shaded, our designers adore transforming empty garden spaces into cosy seating areas. Covered by glorious garden structures such as pergolas or gazebos, these versatile structures can easily be slotted into any corner of your garden and can even be attached to the exterior of your home. Settled over expansive natural stone terraces, seating areas are the perfect way to make the most of your garden throughout the seasons.
Winter is a magical time of year in the garden and with a helping hand from our landscaping team, you can frame a series of cosy garden retreats for the colder months ahead. Including crackling firepits, snug soft furnishings and twinkling outdoor lighting, frame a heavenly seating area that you can use all year round.
Garden rooms
Functional spaces that can be shaped and furnished to perform a variety of different functions, garden rooms are fabulous garden structures that can be seamlessly slotted into any corner or empty area in your garden. Framing a private retreat and increasing the value of your home, garden rooms bring a number of benefits to your home and lifestyle. From idyllic garden offices to your very own garden gym, garden rooms are wonderfully multipurpose and make a fabulous addition to any section of your garden.
Vertical gardens
Perfect for townhouse, balcony and courtyard gardens, vertical gardens are a wonderful way to enhance your garden design. Beautifully enclosing your seating or dining area, trellis can be used to both enhance privacy and to grow glorious climbers such as Clematis and Honeysuckle. Softening your garden with bursts of floral colour and texture, creating living walls in your vertical garden is another fantastic way to boost visual interest within this space.
Requiring little space, vertical gardens are also a fabulous place to grow kitchen herbs. Boosting your homemade meals with glorious garden flavours, herbs can easily be slotted into your vertical garden using a variety of different pots, containers and hanging shelves.
Decking areas
Creating snug and cosy garden corners, establishing decking into your garden is a simple and easy way to create a blissful outdoor living feature that slots seamlessly into your garden’s natural landscape. The perfect place to frame an outdoor cinema, an inviting seating area or to enjoy a dip in a bubbling hot tub, decking is a must have garden feature that looks beautiful during every season.
Once your decking area is complete, don’t forget to dress your seating areas and outdoor furniture with a collection of stylish soft furnishings to magnify the cosy factor of your garden corner.
