When designing a garden, no matter how small, I always try to include a second seating area. This provides the opportunity to view the garden from a different angle and take advantage of a sunny or shady spot.
Whether you want to be immersed in planting, take a break from work, or relax at the end of the day, there is a seating style for you.
This may include cover in the form of a pergola or parasol trees, built in seating, or a simple step or low wall on which to perch.
A second seating area will help you create your own little space for reflection and meditation.
