A series of workshops to stimulate participants to think about the function and design of a courtyard/ small garden space/outdoor room. This course will provide tools and information with which to consider the future design for their own space.

Participants will need to provide a plan or rough ‘mud map’ of the space they are considering, as well as photos. They need to bring coloured pencils or textas, paper and a scale rule (if possible).

Workshops will cover:
  • Site inventory
  • Site analysis
  • Examining the function of the space
  • Learning about aspect – views – light – shade
  • Privacy issues
  • Future requirements
  • Ambience and character
  • Elements of design
  • Relationship between indoor and outdoor
  • Materials and plant selection
 

Maximum number: 12 

Venue: Walter Burley Griffin Incinerator, Glebe
