Landlocked garden with stepped terrace

Landlocked Stepped Terraced | Architects for West Kilburn 

A mews house in West Kilburn has creatively reclaimed neighboring land to establish a charming garden space. This enclosed urban setting offers an excellent opportunity to create an enjoyable amenity beyond the mews itself. Surrounded by high walls, the garden benefits from a west-facing aspect, making the most of the sun as it passes across the sky. To maximise the space, a series of elevated timber terraced platforms is proposed, mounted to the walls each platform provides different levels of use and perspective. Nestled in the far corner, the terraces acts as a sun-trap, capturing the warmth of the evening sun.
