Fashion entrepreneur Miranda Cobb has created an outdoor space to entertain guests and watch her children play
About 18 months ago, we bought a bach sitting on a full section, one street back from the beach with sea views.
Both my husband, Bevan, and I love transforming spaces, using theexperience we've gained from setting up seven Evolution Clothing and Harper retail stores around the country.
While we're already transformed much of inside of our house, by swapping rooms to chase the sun, putting in a new kitchen and adding two bedrooms, our focus has been to make the most of the surrounding land.
Most of my working life has been indoors, selecting fabrics, designing clothes and travelling overseas, so spending time outdoors is important to me.
We opted for a huge deck and from a design perspective went for the minimalist look with simple clean lines and white furniture.
Not many mothers of young children would probably go for white, but my children are well trained.
Probably my favourite part of this space is the outdoor couch, it's so comfy and I love having breakfast out here or having a coffee with a girlfriend.
We have loved this summer, sitting outdoors with my newborn baby and watching my two primary school children ride their skate ramp, climb trees or swing on the hammock.
With only six weeks left of summer we are contemplating putting a roof of sorts over the deck, I'm just trying to get my head around how to design it.
