Dining Al Fresco

Perfect for al fresco dining, this garden combines an abundance of fresh, edible plants with a kitchen and dining area.

Designer Martin says:
"This show garden — filled with herbs, vines and salads, and with its own kitchen — was designed to encourage the use of fresh produce and outdoor living."

"To create a relaxing atmosphere, I used a subtle color scheme for both hard and soft materials. The pool, complete with carp, is calming too, and positioned at the same level as the cantilevered table."

"The garden is typical of my approach to design, which is to create sharp and smart spaces that are user-friendly and easy to maintain."
