Modern terrace with simple planting
The terrace of this penthouse flat impresses with its unique lake view. The discreet design allows a view of the lake at all times, creating a harmonious balance with the view. The containers with the evergreen shrubs serve as a natural boundary to the neighbouring house and a small container with a flowering hydrangea further lightens the mood. In order not to restrict the view of the lake, shallow bowls planted with lavender were placed in the gravel in front of the glass railing. The brown colour of the pots harmonises with the warm tone of the porcelain stoneware tiles on the terrace. A small staircase leads to the garden on the north side, which also has a modern and simple design.
