The contemporary style and simple planting in this design gives an illusion of space.<br />
The soft, fi ne foliage creates a pleasing contrast against the hard lines of the Stevenson<br />
DryBlock Architectural Masonry and the walls. The planters are kept as narrow as<br />
possible to maximise the paved area, which can be used as a private relaxing space.<br />
All but the feature wall are in the same colour as the house to make it feel like an<br />
extension of the interior – literally an outdoor room. The red tile insets create visual<br />
interest when viewing the garden from the townhouse’s second fl oor. The water<br />
feature uses copper piping and enhances the overall asymmetry of the courtyard.<br />
