BRING THE OUTSIDE INSIDE
AND VICE-VERSA...
John’s garden with the Tongue- and Groove-effect panels with Premier Trellis topper panels
Here’s a great project that was
inspired by the need to make better
use of the garden space, after
extending the house. It looks
amazing, and the sensitive
approach to the use of materials
has made it even more successful.
Choosing Tongue- and Grooveeffect panels, with the boards
running horizontally to match the
timber cladding on the house,
encourages a feeling of cohesion
to the look of the entire outdoor
space; it blurs the lines between
house and garden, and brings the
outside inside and vice-versa.
John Horswill sent these lovely
photos of the completed project
(thanks very much John), and here’s
what he told us about it:
"The project was initiated by our
need to provide more living space
on the ground floor of our town
house. The garden area is very
small (only 50 square metres), so
we were limited in the size of the
extension that the available space
could support. Our solution was to
build a very simple, fully glazed bay
window extension, at the same time
redesigning the garden to
complement the additional area
created within the house.
Win a Jacksons' wheelie bin store
"We raised the terrace up to
ground-floor level, providing more
apparent space, particularly when
the bi-fold doors are fully open.
Most of the existing shrubs were
retained, and new raised beds
added. One of the most important
aspects of the design was the
fencing, and we were attracted to
the simple lines of Jacksons'
products. We faced the external
walls of the house with cladding to
match the upper floors, and needed
to extend that theme into the
boundary treatment.

"We are very pleased with the
results, in particular the balance
between trellis and panelling. And
as a bonus, we had ordered
enough components to build a new
shed and garden gate, integrated
into the fencing.
"The contractor made an excellent
job of it and used more or less all
the components. Note the shed,
which was built into the fencing
and works well – I'm hoping to add
a 'green' roof at a later date. All in
all, I am really pleased. It’s a very
successful project."
