Ensuring You Want It Enough
On one side of our eat in kitchen, we have a large 3x3m opening that looks out into the rear garden. Our plan is to transform this gap into a key “money shot” moment in our design. But how?
Looking around for inspiration, we found the pavilion at the Kampong Gardens in Coconut Grove, Florida.
Between brick columns, the architect has decided to erect wooden frames with no glass or screens. It’s purely ornamental and fantastic.
The frames transform an otherwise typical line of columns into a series of windows that outline the garden beyond. By creating this false barrier, the garden feels like it sits apart, heightening your sense of longing. As they say, distance makes the heart grow fonder.
