The outdoor kitchen space puts cooking at the heart of the social event – no need to leave your guests alone while preparing food. The design allows for plenty of space for entertaining with decorative surroundings, including attractive planting, quirky details and a fresh colour palette of silver, grey and white.
Grasses feature strongly, both for movement and to mimic the McMaster ornate wooden sculptural lighting. Rosemary forms a fragrant hedge in the planters at the back of the garden, balancing the feature trees at the front.
Alfresco celebrates the joy of outdoor entertaining and demonstrates how hard landscaping can blend with soft planting to create the best of both worlds in a garden designed to be shared and enjoyed.
