Ci siamo recati sulle colline della provincia di Biella per effettuare il sopralluogo in questo bellissimo casale con fienile completamente da ristrutturare. Nelle prime foto si può notare lo stato in cui si trova in questo momento la proprietà. La famiglia che ha deciso di acquistarla si è innamorata subito, come anche noi, del paesaggio, della vista e della natura silenziosa che lo circonda. La bellezza del rustico richiama ai tempi in cui le famiglie erano numerose e questo ci ha ispirato a creare un luogo che farà rivivere quei momenti in cui tutto era pieno di vita. Abbiamo utilizzato materiali quanto più possibile naturali che richiamassero lo stile country, come il legno, i mattoni a vista, il rame e abbiamo sfruttato tutti quegli oggetti di recupero che un tempo venivano utilizzati nelle cascine come vecchie carriole di legno, paioli in rame e botti di vetro. Le persone che hanno acquistato il rustico desideravano una proprietà dove passare il tempo vivere e divertirsi con familiari ed amici quindi abbiamo pensato a diverse zone, ognuna delle quali dedicata ad un'attività da svolgere appunto in famiglia. Un'enorme piscina imponente corre lungo tutto il muro laterale di cinta, mentre dal lato opposto una pergola di legno ricoperta di cannucciato sarà la zona living con il tavolo da pranzo e un'amaca per i momenti di relax. A dividere queste due zone avremo la parte verde del giardino: due grandi aiuole laterali e un'aiuola centrale ospiteranno perenni, graminacee, arbusti da fiore e ortensie. Abbiamo deciso di mantenere una bellissima pianta di vite che era già presente per utilizzarla come frangivista per la zona più divertente del giardino: una pista da ballo!

Country Front Garden Ideas and Designs

A beautifully designed country garden is as important as the emphasis we place on the designs of our interiors. After all, our grounds (however modest) frame our homes and contribute to first impressions not only of our houses, but also of the households within. Options for garden designs can be as elaborate or low maintenance as your lifestyle and preferences permit – consider both your aspirations for how it should look and how much time you can invest in garden maintenance. Consulting a gardener or landscape designer will ensure you have a garden that suits your lifestyle, the local climate and soil conditions. But don’t forget that with Houzz your first stop can be collecting images of garden ideas and designs you love in order to inspire your garden plans and potentially share them with a landscape gardening professional.

How do I come up with a country front garden design?

The priority for a front garden is kerb appeal. Begin by considering the area immediately around and leading up to your front door. You may want to opt for front garden designs that blend well with the style of your home – for example, abundant foliage and flowerbeds will perfectly complement a period property, whereas man-made materials, geometric shapes and contrasting textures are great ideas for a contemporary garden design. Even if your front garden is a small space, keep it tidy – if you have more space, make the most of it with garden ideas and features such as a manicured lawn, gravel driveway, water feature or garden fencing. If you don’t have the time or commitment to devote to gardening, then neatly pruned hedges, statement paving, hanging baskets, garden benches and outdoor lighting are all decorative, low maintenance garden ideas for your country front garden design.

How should I design my country back garden?

Back gardens typically offer more space than front garden designs and serve a more recreational purpose, so it’s important to know how you want to spend time in your garden before you design it in order to build in the features that you will enjoy. If you love relaxing in the garden and dining al fresco, think about patios, decking, garden furniture and BBQs. For the more horticulturally-inclined, incorporate flower beds, greenhouses or vegetable garden designs. Your landscape gardening professional can help you install structures such as sheds, pergolas and gazebos that complement your garden design, and artfully-placed garden ideas such as lawn edging and lighting will add definition to your chosen design.

How do I create a low maintenance garden?

The great news is, gardens aren’t exclusively for the green-fingered. Whether you’re not horticulturally-inclined or simply don’t have the time for a bit of landscape gardening, you can still have a country garden design that looks the way you want by making some smart design choices. While many of us favour low maintenance gardens like urban gardens, roof terraces and patio gardens, lovers of greenery don’t need to sacrifice grass for paving slabs. Whatever you want from your garden, there are a variety of gardening solutions that can be built in to make life easier. For example, labour intensive features such as vegetable patches, greenhouses and flower beds can be optimised with an automatic irrigation system. These can be offset with fuss-free garden ideas such as hard landscaping, including gravel, paving or decking, and hard-wearing evergreens that require minimal upkeep. You might even consider replacing your garden fencing with slow growing hedging, which can be maintained less regularly than wooden fence panels. If having a lawn is important, there are different types of grasses in varying degrees of durability and maintenance. You may choose to take a more relaxed approach to your lawn – “wild” garden designs can have great charm if the grasses and flowers are chosen carefully. If you prefer a manicured lawn, it’s a good idea to invest in a “mulching” lawn mower that will recycle clippings and remove the need for cleaning up. Finally, there isn’t a more low maintenance garden lawn than artificial grass which can look highly realistic and keep your garden looking green. Garden ornaments are a great way to add interest to your low maintenance garden design – go for smart garden ideas such as solar garden lights which are both decorative and functional.
