A ramped sandstone patio with a sleeper bed
An outdoor space built to be reached easily by wheelchair. Two slopes run from the main entrance so any part of the garden can be got to, and the paving was chosen for grip.
We were asked for a garden that could be used from a wheelchair. All of it, not only the part by the door.
What we built
Two slopes run from the main entrance into the garden, so every area can be reached without a step. The paving tiles were chosen carefully for maximum grip while still keeping with the design. Sleepers run right through the garden, giving plenty of easily reached beds for the owner to add colour and texture to.
