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.
