Classic Courtyard














All images Katherine Field & Associates


Katherine Field is a Rhode Island based Landscape Architect doing very inspirational work. The courtyard area of this Newport house offers many different areas to rest and relax, in what really is quite a small, narrow garden space.

I love the use of soft muted tones of grey & taupe in the outdoor furnishings, & then the contrast of the lush green with grey planting used to tie the theme together - very stylish.

  4. I love your blog. This house is a replica, without the bay windows, of our own home. Even the insides are the same, tounge and groove panelling, chair and picture rails, the kitchen alcove and even the ceiling. I think I will head over to the site and have a closer look. I have heaps of ideas for our renos that we have left to do now...ta!
