01 / THE COMPOSITION
How the spaces
come together.
A poolscape with architectural paving, an outdoor kitchen and separate dining and lounging areas.
Cooking, dining and lounging are given distinct places within a connected poolscape. Architectural paving ties those activities together without requiring every area to have the same furniture or atmosphere.
02 / THE SPATIAL BRIEF
Room for the way
you want to live.
The spatial brief is straightforward: make it easy to prepare food, sit down for a meal and move toward the water or lounge. The success of that arrangement depends on the relationships between the zones.
Sizing the layout
Place the intended dining table, lounge seating and any cooking area on a measured plan before fixing the terrace boundaries. Allow for movement around occupied furniture, planting and service access. The gallery does not establish the property size.
03 / A CLOSER LOOK
Material. Detail. Perspective.
THE MATERIAL DIRECTION
Read the details
as a whole.
Study the colour, texture and scale of the surfaces together with the architecture. The gallery shows the visual relationship; final product, finish and installation choices belong in the property-specific specification.
Bring preferred views from this collection to a consultation. We can discuss which elements matter most to you and review them alongside the architecture, existing features and intended budget.
THE PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS
Resolve the site.
Then refine the details.
For a similar backyard, start with the dining table and seating sizes, then review the route from the house to the kitchen. Appliance selections, utility requirements and the position of the pool should be coordinated before paving is finalized.
For an existing property, the starting information should include a survey if available, current photographs and the features you want to retain. Boundaries, access, existing trees and changes in level need to be understood before the layout becomes a construction scope.
QUESTIONS FOR YOUR OWN PROPERTY
From a favourite view
to a useful brief.
What should we put on our wish list?
Use The art of outdoor entertaining to identify what matters most: the arrangement of the spaces, the material character or a particular detail. Separate essential functions from optional features and describe how you expect to use the area on an ordinary day.
Can this arrangement work on a different-sized property?
Place the intended dining table, lounge seating and any cooking area on a measured plan before fixing the terrace boundaries. Allow for movement around occupied furniture, planting and service access. The gallery does not establish the property size.
