Small terrace garden with foun­tain

Romantic atmo­sphere by the water

This small patio garden has been trans­formed into a cosy garden para­dise. The previously little-used garden has given way to a versa­tile outdoor living area. A simple wooden floor, a natural stone wall and green plan­ting convey a sense of closeness to nature. Addi­tional flowe­ring shrubs in deco­ra­tive plan­ters set indi­vi­dual accents and further empha­sise the romantic garden style. At the centre of the clearly laid out patio garden is the natural stone foun­tain, which is also ideal for cooling off on hot summer days. The garden owners can enjoy a refres­hing dip through a seating step in the foun­tain basin. An addi­tional high­light is the water­fall spout, which creates a gentle ripple and empha­sises the romantic atmo­sphere in this patio area.

Cosy spaces with plenty of privacy

Follo­wing the garden rede­sign, the small entrance area has been trans­formed into a cosy patio garden with two sepa­rate retreats. Upon ente­ring the property, you imme­dia­tely find yourself in an idyllic lounge area by the water. An ever­green hedge frames the garden in a natural way and ensures undis­turbed tran­quil­lity and a dense privacy screen. Large stones and a simple plan­ting strip of grasses break up this border and harmo­nise perfectly with the natural stone foun­tain, which attracts everyone’s atten­tion. The wooden floor has freed up a lot of space and the patio garden appears more spacious and struc­tured. This outdoor area is a real oasis of well-being in the open air and offers its owners undis­turbed rela­xa­tion in their own garden para­dise.

The covered terrace is acces­sible through the living room and extends the inte­rior to the outside. At the back of the terrace is a cosy dining area with a table and chairs for eating in green surroun­dings. Oppo­site, the lounge furni­ture creates a relaxed atmo­sphere. The covered loca­tion also makes the terrace a wonderful retreat in bad weather. The simple and modern wooden floo­ring is picked up again here and ensures a harmo­nious design concept.
