Yes there are two patio areas, the one nearest the house was meant to be a greenhouse base that never happened so it’s just used for hard standing, tinkering space etc. It’s well supported, 2t whacked type 1 and big council slabs so I’m keen not to touch it!
Back door is in line with the cordyline, lower patio leads to side, car port and front garden. Not overly fussed about areas for adults as we just pull out chairs on the grass or patio banjos and sofa style. Shed is staying 🙂
It would be great without a raised bed, but next spring the boy will be 2 and it’s important to me that he gets his fingers covered in soil and sees how things grow. I know it might get mauled with balls but i can put up something to protect it.
Another thought was whether to curve the rubber matting path toward the patios, but there isn’t an obvious neat way to tie it in together.
I think it’s going to look a bit utilitarian whatever i do!
Muffin man, I mow wet grass almost every day, you just need the right tools!
WCA that’s funky! I like the greenhouse green roof and the potato detail in the raised bed!
