Upper Valley Renovation

GO Designs Inc.

Refined Outdoor Living...our clients were looking to upgrade their outdoor spaces. The existing pool just wasn't the great space they thought it should have been. But bringing it together was harder than it looked. Destination spaces was one idea for gathering family and friends. Smores, coffee and night caps around the firepit. Cozy nights in front of the fireplace was a must & with a shade structure attached, cooling off was easy. Seating areas for lounge chairs, chaises around the pool made entertaining easy. 3 fountain jets creates that just right sound and a fun place for swimming under! The icing on the cake was the perimeter landscape & lighting. Memories will be created for years to come. Cozy, yet festive is always the best of both worlds!

Courtyard Landscape Garden Sydney

Vogue & Vine - Landscape Designers Sydney

Our inner-city client in Redfern had a small outdoor courtyard which was impractical and he never used it for entertaining. Vogue and Vine were called in to create a liveable outdoor room and maximise space for seating and entertaining. We put down a new concrete floor and created built in bench seating and garden beds. We broke the space up using different materials and a modern colour palette. We used outdoor sofas and built in cushions to add a touch of glamour and warmth.

This outdoor kitchen and paved area in Sossaman Estates, AZ, shows how your exterior walls can add even more distinction to the installation. Here, the stucco wall's rough finish brings the outdoor kitchen into sharp focus. The pale tones of the outdoor kitchen, coupled with the darker browns of the kitchen's paved area, help to make this the focal point.

Barbecue Pits and Outdoor Kitchens, AZ, The Yard Sylist

The Yard Stylist

This installation at Cadence at Gateway, AZ, showcases three installations, outdoor kitchen, artificial grass, and landscape lighting. Each installation compliments the other to create a completely functional and beautiful design. The owners have chosen a kitchen island design in pale grays and whites, which compliments the house's exterior. The area of artificial grass provides a space for guests to congregate after a meal. The landscape lighting has been installed to highlight both the plants and the trellis. It is very subtle but will provide a soft, illuminated effect to both the kitchen and the artificial grass.

Garden Design Ideas with a Stone Fence

Get Inspired by Gardens on Houzz

A lot of the time when you get home from a long day at work, all you want to do is wind down. Where better to do this than in your very own garden at home? If you do it right, a great garden design can send you right into holiday mode. But where to start? There’s so many styles to choose from when it comes to garden design. Whether you want to create a tropical, modern, contemporary, beach style or country garden - or something else entirely - the large garden image gallery on Houzz has got you covered. Get inspired and collect your ideas to narrow down your desired garden style and features.

How to Create a Garden for Your Home

Depending on which style you’re going for, be sure to know what makes a garden and if it’s appropriate for your climate. You may want to consider adding a deck or other landscaping features, but the plants you choose will mostly dictate your style and what kind of ongoing maintenance is required. Don’t worry if your backyard isn’t very spacious - there are many plants that can thrive even in a small space and allow you to turn your space into a little paradise of your own, regardless of size.

Decide which plants to use

The greenery you choose is critical to your look. For example, if you’re trying to create a tropical garden palm trees and bamboo are your go-to options. Other popular options are golden cane palm trees and fern for ground cover. From there you can add some colour with bright flowers like frangipani, hibiscus or bromeliads. All these are actually quite hardy plants, so once established, your tropical garden is actually quite easy to maintain. Use this structure and apply it to your style. Research which plants you need to set your base for a garden and go from there.

Add some decor

If the plants don’t quite do it for you yet, or if you want to add some extra wow-factor, consider adding some extra features. Even if you can’t accommodate a swimming pool, hot tub or pond, you could look at smaller water features. Simple rocks can also have a great effect, while statues and gnomes will add some extra character. Don’t forget to add some furniture so you have a nice place to sit and enjoy your garden!

Need some help?

Once you know what you want your garden to look like, it may be hard to make it a reality on your own. If that is the case for you, consider consulting a professional to help you with your garden design. Every photo you find on Houzz will lead you to the local pro that did the job, so you won’t have a problem picking the perfect person to help! Whether you need a gardener in Brisbane, a landscape architect in Melbourne or a fireplace installer in Sydney, you can be sure to find one on Houzz.
