OUTDOOR LIVING SPACES: DECKS, WATER FEATURES, SCULPTURES & PERGOLAS

Modern garden design is all about integrating indoor and outdoor living areas to suit your lifestyle.

Your garden design has to work for you.

We focus on function, aesthetics and manageability, and will work with you to achieve the best result possible.

Crafting an organised space that is friendly, inviting and personalised is our goal.

DECKS & SEATING

In-built features, such as decks and seating, are used to structure and define areas of your garden, welcoming people outside to use and enjoy these spaces.

Decks provide an extension of your indoor living areas into the garden and provide places to relax and entertain.

In-built seating can provide both a sculptural element in your garden and a place to contemplate and admire your garden.

WATER FEATURES

Relaxing sound, the ripple of light across the surface, continual movement, a place for birds to drink - a water feature in the garden can bring life to an outdoor space.

From simple to the complex, a water feature can enhance your property. Features to consider are flowing water, ponds and pools, fountains and sculptures.

SCULPTURE IN THE GARDEN

Use sculptures in the garden to personalise your outdoor living spaces.

We will work with you to determine sculptural elements that will enhance your garden, providing a focal point that will delight you, your family and your friends.

PERGOLAS & ENTRANCE WAYS

Pergolas are used to shade entertainment areas, provide a structure for climbing plants, and to shield difficult areas of your garden, such as views to neighbouring properties. 

Depending on the style of garden you are after, and the impact you wish to achieve, a carefully designed entrance way is your first opportunity to set the tone for the rest of the garden.

Tom was easy to talk to and a good listener which made the discussion of ideas very easy and exciting.

We received very clear concept plans of a few different options. 

We absolutely love the final concept plan and are very excited about having the work carried out.

We are so happy with Tom's work so far that we feel very confident in having Gunn Design complete the project.
