Thai Garden Design recently designed and constructed a large, modern style garden sala at the home of an expat residing in Bangkok. Amongst other garden changes, the sala represented possibly the most important aspect of the build, being that the owner wanted to change the character of his garden, from one that used the lawn for play, to a garden that could use this area for relaxing.
(pic above: notice the white house in the background, which becomes covered by the sala roof, in the picture below). The sala design consisted of an adjacent pond, with waterfall, built in seating around x2 sides, crazy paved steps, a large cupboard for the BBQ, a tiled floor, guttering (linked to the pond) and fitted electrics for lights, fans, and the pond pump.
More on this garden sala to follow in the next post. If you want to transform your garden landscape, email ben@thaigardendesign.com.
Not only has this tract of land been used for aesthetic purposes and as a playground for children, it’s also become the perfect spot for R & R. It now looks like a cottage resort!
Thanks Jamie, the owner wanted to make the garden into a place he could relax outside with his family (now the kids have all grown up!) – With thanks, The Thai Garden Design Team
