It is all about street appeal, inviting entertainment deck, low-maintenance courtyard. Money spent on the design of the outdoors is always a good investment in the long run, say the experts.
Modern gardens should provide ambience and function; with spaces for entertaining, for dining and for quiet reflection. Green still sells a garden, that hasn't changed even in these days of smaller inner city properties.
