Any small courtyard with limited space has to be an aesthetic blend of form and function. It is in many ways a harder task designing a small, intimate space than a sprawling garden, as there is much less room for artistic excess or error.
If you are on the hunt for courtyard garden ideas, then this year’s WOW!house at Chelsea Harbour offers fodder for the imagination in bucket loads. The award-winning, interior design studio, Goddard Littlefair, has partnered with outdoor luxury furniture and performance fabrics specialists, Perennials and Sutherland, to create an Andalusian-style central courtyard at WOW!house 2025 where Andalusian gardens, Moorish architecture, and North African influence have culminated in a courtyard design that is a lesson in carefully managed reduction.
