Side Storage Wrapped Around Bay Window for up to 4 Bikes and Cargo Bike

Problem

  • Daily bike access was obstructed by bins and tight manoeuvring around the bay window.
  • Storage needed to suit two e-bikes now and potentially a cargo bike later.
  • Hedge removal reduced privacy and required a new planting strategy.

Solution

  • A wrap-around side store with a double-hinged door for a clear, direct exit.
  • A 2.5 m structure accommodating most cargo bikes, with future flexibility for more storage.
  • Discreet bin integration, a low-maintenance green roof and a 1.4 m privacy planting bed.

Approach

  • Prioritise clean access and efficient layout before detailing.
  • Coordinate base, paving and drainage to create a seamless entrance.
  • Specify resilient planting and green-roof design, with provision for irrigation and charging.
