Need inspiration for the front of my house and driveway!
Comments (43)This is a handsome house. First...symmetry. Can you make the front pillars the same height. I would lower the LH one to match RH. A strong iron railing along the LH side and in the small front piece LH. Keep front door a strong colour....dark green/blue, navy, whatever, and paint the iron railigs the same colout. Avoid lots of small pots...messy and lots to water. You could i) have a narrow raised bed along the RH wall between you and the next property planted with a mix of small evergreen shrubs and trailing plants..small Choysia Ternata, etc., There is a trailing euphorbia (Amagloides ?) which is sculptural but relaxed. ii) Acquire or have built two or three large tree pots. When they are empty, position them in various places, with bamboo canes, to see where they would work best, and how many you want. I would suggest something deciduous with autumn colour and blossom, like a prunus autumnalis; a crab apple; a quince on dwarf stock; a columnar flowering cherry,Prunus Amanogawa....the choice is huge. Avoid cottagey annuals and too much patchy, mixed planting. I would keep pots square, in harmony with the raised bed. This house is formal and urban. Keeo it elegant and with strong lines broken by the foliage and trailers. I needs beauty, not prettiness. cheers...See Moredriveway/gates
Comments (7)Hi Appy Dusad, We would love to help you with your gates! We've huge experience in this area and I'm sure we will be able to help you. One thing to bear in mind is that if you would like your gates automated we might need to run cables, or put loops under your drive way. Similarly if you would like a light at the entrance to your property it would might need cabling. This would have to go underneath what ever landscaping you put in place. We would be very happy to work with what ever landscapers you choose to co-ordinate this. Please do get in contact at info@portcullis-gates.co.uk or take a look at our website. We can work with you to create almost any design but our gate builder app is a good place to start. http://www.portcullis-gates.co.uk/gate-configurator#metalgatequote. Best of Luck with your project!

Comments (4)May be you could bring the Garage forward and excavate the back of the garage. Instead of a Garage it can then be a carport where you drive in one side and out the other. This also has the added benefit of creating a less steep entrance....See MoreDaisy England
