TUNBRIDGE WELLS

Contemporary Garden for Entertaining with Kitchen, Bar, Jacuzzi and Gym

Project Summary

This outdoor entertainment space reflects the unapologetically grand, contemporary style of the client and links the garden to the house. A substantial extension to the house featuring a large glazed rear façade, was planned at the same time.

We specified a porcelain tile that was used inside and out to connect the two areas visually.

Our design included the wellness area with a jacuzzi, an outbuilding for a gym, and another for a changing room. The wellness complex was recessed to reduce the visual impact of the buildings and create a sheltered zone for sunbathing and a ping pong table.

The large outdoor kitchen holds a range of cooking equipment and includes a bar with an illuminated 3D bar front, which serves as a visual centrepiece.

Black fluted cladding carries through from the house to the outbuildings and the large planters. The planters repeat along the axis that runs from the front of the house, via a glass walkway, to the sculpture at the very rear of the garden. The sculpture represents the five members of the family, and its position and visibility symbolises the priorities of the clients who are active and sociable, and enjoy each other’s company. Planting throughout has been strategically located to counterbalance the minimalist line of the architecture and landscaping and to maintain a view with a garden feel from the house year-round.

Lighting transforms the garden at night creating interest and depth beyond the glass.

Design to Completion: Entertainment garden with bar and kitchen, garden gym and hot tub
