An angular contemporary garden

This water feature is to create the main focus within the courtyard and from the house. Water flows from a back pool over a fall into a lower pool which is surrounded by a timber seat. Natural stone or concrete slabs will be used to surface this courtyard. A large BBQ provides another focus to the area. These two walls provide a division within the garden. They hide a gate which prevents the dog from entering the lower area of the garden. The beds within this area are to be raised to prevent damage to the plants by dog. Blue tiles form a sculptural shape which leads you through the garden spaces. Existing evergreen tree to remain. If desired could be replaced by more ornamental variety. Existing garage is to be converted into summer house and storage building.
A clean natural stone or concrete slab will be used to surface this area. It is softened by breaking into the planting. This area will provide a seating space for the summerhouse. The planting within this area is to be soft and colourful to contrast with all of the simple lines in this half of the garden. Sketch showing the main features in the top half of the garden.
