Use comes before features

Begin with the moments the space needs to support.

A successful outdoor area is shaped around movement, shelter, outlook, privacy and connection to the home. Features follow from those decisions, not the other way around.

01

Arrival and movement

Understand how people enter, circulate and move between indoor and outdoor spaces.

02

Places to pause

Consider where dining, gathering, quiet use or everyday family life should naturally happen.

03

Comfort and privacy

Use planting, screening, orientation and spatial structure to support shelter and a sense of enclosure.

04

Material continuity

Relate surfaces, edges and built elements to the home and the character of the wider landscape.

Start with how you want to use the space, not a shopping list.

Show us where outdoor life happens now, what gets in the way and which connections, views or privacy needs matter most.

  1. Photos from the home looking outward and back toward the house
  2. The activities and number of people the area should support

Good to know

Outdoor Living & Landscape Structures questions.

Can this include decks, pergolas or fencing?

These elements can be considered within the landscape response. The appropriate design, construction and specialist responsibilities depend on their scale, attachment, structure and consent requirements.

Do all outdoor structures need consent?

Requirements depend on the specific proposal and site. If professional or consent-related input is needed, it is identified for that part of the project.

Can planting be designed around an outdoor living area?

Yes. Planting can support privacy, shelter, outlook and the transition between built space and garden.

Can an existing terrace or outdoor area be reworked?

Yes. The first step is to understand what is not working now and whether the best response is a focused change or a wider landscape plan.

Where does Stable Group fit?

Stable Group may provide consent-related or other professional input where a project requires it. It is not automatically part of every outdoor-living project.
