We have a small sloped garden with a splash pool (level on one corner, above ground everywhere else). It is in the corner of our yard, but about 2m from the wall, i.e. in between there is a little space for perhaps a little entertainment area or benches. The paving of the pool is terrible, and way too big. I would like to keep the look of the small pool, and have the surroundings be functional, either for lounging or entertaining. Little steps to access the pool, etc. When we installed it, we just looked at where there is space, but it is not functional right now. Difficult to access, the sides of the paving is slanted, takes up unnecessary space. I am attaching looks that I like, as well as a current picture of the pool area.
I am wanting a deck, boxed trees behind and ideas for a high wall . Sloping lawns to lift the Indigenous plants high to afford a view over distant mountains. An extension from my patio to give an indoor/ outdoor living area.....an optical illusion of space? I'm looking for someone with experience, who can draw a plan and execute it for us?
We have an area under a tree where grass does not want to grow. It throws it leaves off in winter. Now my husband leaves those leaves there to cover the ground. I think to cover the area with little klippies or immitation grass can be a solution. It is just this area where I would like advice. It is difficult to give dimensions

The project involves the redevelopment of the former Amogela Mall, located on Mooi Street in the Welkom CBD, Free State, into the Welkom Luxury Mall — a modern, high-end commercial centre aimed at revitalising the surrounding urban area. Current Situation: The existing mall structure is partly deteriorated and surrounded by hard-paved and neglected open areas. There is minimal existing greenery, poor drainage, and limited pedestrian-friendly features. The site requires both rehabilitation and new landscaping to enhance its visual appeal, improve stormwater management, and create a welcoming atmosphere for shoppers. Design Vision and Style Preferences: The landscaping design should complement the mall’s modern luxury architectural style, using low-maintenance, drought-tolerant plants suitable for the Free State climate. The client prefers a clean, contemporary aesthetic that includes: Paved pedestrian walkways with integrated seating. Green pockets and planters near entrances and parking areas. Shaded areas with trees or pergolas to enhance comfort. Energy-efficient outdoor lighting for safety and ambience. Feature landscaping around the main entrances and signage zones. Integration of stormwater-friendly features, such as grassed channels or permeable paving, to reduce flooding risks. Project Scale: Approximate total site area: ±16, m² of building footprint with surrounding parking and open spaces. Basement and surface parking with landscaped islands. Landscaping expected mainly in external open areas, pedestrian zones, and mall frontage. Objective: To create an attractive, safe, and environmentally sustainable outdoor environment that enhances the luxury image of the new Welkom Luxury Mall while improving pedestrian flow and user experience.
