How to bring the outside in & inside out

Urban gardens can be that extra room you are looking for, adding value in more ways than one.

An architect or designer should inspire their clients to make the most of their indoor-outdoor space, however big or small, so that they can relax enjoy space, eat and entertain, inside or out.”

The featured project is a complete house refurbishment and extension for a private developer client in Bayswater, London, W2. The garden was opened up to the open-plan living-kitchen-dining room to the full width of the property with large sliding glass doors and a level threshold. The canopy incorporated in the design leads you gently to the outside room while giving some additional shading to the living area in the warmer months.

The building was carefully designed to ensure that, as well as the curtains, the sliding folding doors can be neatly tucked out of the way and lie flush with the side wall when fully opened. The threshold of the sliding doors is flush with the floor finish and the same floor levels continue throughout, visually merging the two spaces into one, making both inside and outside appear larger. This is accentuated by having the same or a similar surface finish to both living room and garden. In this case a ceramic tile with under-floor heating was used internally, which closely matches the stone in the garden, where you are able to see the depth of the finish.

Tips for discussions with your architect when extending into your garden or remodelling your home.

 When using glazed doors which slide back and give a large clear opening at any time of year, consider how they will look when fully or partially open and if you want to include any screening or curtains.

 Consider similar materials on both sides of the threshold.

 Drainage can detract from your look, so make sure your architect has this feature integrated into the design.

 Get your architect to suggest or consider a landscape designer, who will be able to suggest plants that will keep your garden looking good all year round.

 Consider the view to your garden at different times of the day and extending its use by incorporating lighting.

 Be sure to discuss furniture, fittings, lighting, sound, heating and irrigation, all of which need to be integrated to keep lines clean.

 Consider the colour and texture of your garden walls to accentuate architectural planting, maximising the light reflected back into the garden and making it look bigger.

‘ A well considered extension and garden layout can make your garden into an extension of your living room and a space you can use all year round’

So, the shoots of spring are beginning to creep out of the cold winter earth, and finally thoughts of summer cross your mind. You realize that you’ve been head down for the long winter months and it’s high time that you and yours had a break. Maybe it’s a short city break, perhaps a week in a remote stunning landscape, but wherever you choose to recharge your batteries, the accommodation is a key part to a successful time out.

The traditional choices of hotel or bed and breakfast are now joined by a flourishing industry of  holiday let accommodation, which offers some distinct advantages.  Freedom and privacy are two important features of renting an apartment or cottage of your own for the duration of your stay. True, there will be no concierge or room service (although some holiday lets will deliver a delicious breakfast basket on request), but the care you receive from having a space dedicated to you with no interruptions from maids or front desk reception staff means that you can for a short time live with the heady idea that you are actually free! You come and go anytime you wish. If you get the munchies at 4am you can saunter into your own fully equipped kitchen and make a midnight snack, without the inconvenience of calling up room service, waiting for the intrusion of delivery and then having to pay extra on your bill for it.

Many holiday lets now provide the highest possible standards, including free wi-fi internet access, cable or satellite television and your own laundry facilities – all things that would cost extra in a hotel.

The phrase home from home does not do justice to holiday lets, as they are much more than that. You have every home comfort, but with the sole purpose of giving you space to relax and enjoy, without the daily lists that accompany each of us in our own home. A hotel room can be a pretty lonely, confined space at times, whereas your own apartment or cottage can provide the welcome warmth and space you need. There can also be the advantage of outdoor space, or a pool/Jacuzzi that you don’t have to share with 100 others.

And last but definitely not least – the cost. Holiday lets can be the very best choice if you want to have more spending money while you’re away, or if you are on a tight budget. When you are holidaying with friends or family, it can work out at a fraction of the cost, per head, of a hotel.

So go on, get online and enjoy the riches of beautiful affordable accommodation wherever your heart takes you.
