Design Dilemma Gardens

Slide on a slope...

2 years ago

We have a sloped area at the back of our garden and plan to create a seating area on the right side and steps up the middle. On the left, we're thinking of adding a slide and maybe a climbing wall - or anything else to make it seriously fun for our 6 and 3 year olds! Any ideas, any suggestions, any wisdom, very much appreciated on all this...

Thanks so much in advance...

Wow what a great mum you are, my parents didn’t even give us a lawn! The whole garden was an allotment. Anyway enough about me. I remember this picture on Houzz and thought it was fab.

Hi Kerry, have you got any measurements or a floor plan of some sort? The space is tight but looks great to utilise. We are a bespoke furniture making company and I would be more than happy to help you with the design to utilise the space at it's best ability. Drop me an email allcabinets@aol.co.uk with any info you've got!

Have a look at our pro page as we have some designs on there that suit sloped roof rooms - the secret is planning well to eek out as much storage space as you can. Sometimes, you can even access space behind the low walls into eves with drawer storage between the uprights ? (As long as this is done safely and no chopping out essential bits !!! ) so always good to have a professional install ! If you are in south of UK you could maybe look at Lamco ( they are on Houzz if you do a pro search ) As they make beautiful dressing rooms !

Lay out for a loft ensuite?
Q

We are going to have a similar ensuite with shower in the tallest part, sink opposite the door and toilet opposite the shower under the slope. We're limited with the width due to the doorway into the attic bedroom but have enough space for a 900 wide shower tray. Would it be better to fit the shower tray before building the stud wall or do the wall first? It'll be a snug fit! We're wanting underfloor heating (probably electric) if that makes any difference? Appreciate any advice.

There are plants that are 'hay fever sufferer friendly': http://www.goodhousekeeping.co.uk/lifestyle/gardening-advice/best-garden-flowers-for-hay-fever-sufferers#?slide=4 Perhaps you could build raised beds, using the pallets, along the fence where the gaps are. It will be a good workout if you have to do this all by hand, but you could create one or more levels and build a retaining wall and steps with the breeze blocks? https://www.gardendad.co.uk/levelling-a-sloping-garden/
