You can use side panels or a deck/surround to create what is, in effect, a free standing bath that would work well aesthetically and, optionally, as part of a wetroom-style bathroom. Deep soaking tubs are especially effective for such projects; they have smaller footprint, which affords more room in the shower area, but their greater depth makes them exceptionally comfortable.

Ooh Kate - where to start? You have soo many options but I think first of all you need to define your style. Here's a long table https://www.worm.co.uk/products/romane-tables but it's totally different to https://www.worm.co.uk/products/bellevie-table Most of all though, you need to reduce the clutter and separate out the practical bin area from the entertaining/relaxing space. Decide if you want plants (please do) and personally I think the crazy paving needs to go. Here's your lights https://www.worm.co.uk/categories/outdoor-string-lights-fairy-lights

I want these on my balcony! I think they look great!

I'm considering putting down composite or hardwood deck tiles to cover an ugly concrete path and patio until I can afford to have the concrete removed and the area landscaped. Can anyone recommend any brands available in the UK, please? Ideally they'd need to interlock on slightly uneven concrete. Any other ideas to hiding/ camouflaging the path would be great! thanks
