GARDEN DESIGN the decision was made to keep it . Georgia opted for lots of other complementary wooden details that will also fade in colour over the years . “ Anything too modern here would make the decking look old and tired . The silver bark of the tree and driftwood tones of the decking work well together ,” she says .
The tree is the main focal point of the terrace and provides a beautiful dappled shade , which Georgia has positioned an eight-seater dining table beneath . The table can also be moved as needed depending on the sun or to create more floor space when entertaining .
The owners have a busy social life and wanted the rooftop to become a place they could entertain family and friends in large and small groups . It also had to provide a spot where the couple could enjoy a morning coffee or a drink on their own . To accommodate these different uses Georgia built several distinct zones into the design .
