The Stonhouse is off the beaten track, tucked away from the hustle and bustle of Clapham High Street.

When Three Cheers approached us to update The Stonhouse courtyard the brief was to create a cosy, covered area which would provide shade and protection from the rain, and to make some new outdoor furniture.

We used oak throughout the build – the pergola is constructed of West Dorset green oak, and the furniture is kiln dried wide oak boards with scorched edges.

We also re-purposed some cleft chestnut fencing to give dappled shade under the pergola and to provide a trelliswork for the vines planted in the back of the banquette seating.

We used industrial heaters and lighting to compliment the steel hairpin table legs and bases.
