Coastal Modern Farmhouse (Industrial, comfortable and budget friendly)

Brittany Stiles Design

A 1940's bungalow was renovated and transformed for a small family. This is a small space - 800 sqft (2 bed, 2 bath) full of charm and character. Custom and vintage furnishings, art, and accessories give the space character and a layered and lived-in vibe. This is a small space so there are several clever storage solutions throughout. Vinyl wood flooring layered with wool and natural fiber rugs. Wall sconces and industrial pendants add to the farmhouse aesthetic. A simple and modern space for a fairly minimalist family. Located in Costa Mesa, California. Photos: Ryan Garvin

Patricia's Garden

Aralia: Innovation in Landscape Design

Patricia’s garden is an eclectic mix of both traditional & contemporary surrounding her 18th Century Thatched Cottage. She is passionate about edible gardening and so proudly sites 4 raised vegetable beds in her front garden, together with a large pottage border for productive planting, edged with a crisp low Buxus hedge. Central to the front garden is an established Willow which sets off the cottage beautifully. Access to the side of the house is through a decorative metal gate, through to a contemporary Courtyard garden which is minimalist in style and made private with a tall Taxus (Yew) hedge and contains a Balau hardwood deck for early morning breakfast and tea. A contemporary border with Miscanthus and Phlomis, mulched with slate, links the contemporary courtyard garden through to the rear garden. Patricia’s rear garden is very much about entertaining and she was fortunate enough to reinstall her RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2009 Garden (Outdoor Kitchen ‘Freshly Prepped’) into her own garden, so this nests in a corner, and is bordered by buttery yellow Bamboos (Phyllostachys aurea). The outdoor kitchen includes a Green Wall, massive hardwood chopping board, breakfast bar, sofa area, wine chiller and even a kitchen sink! There are 3 seating areas in total here, a powdery blue pergola adjacent to the cottage, covered with Wisteria, Clematis and a Vine, and a further raised hardwood deck (Ipe) which houses an elegant chocolate brown rattan dining table and chairs. There are elements of sculpture/ornaments dotted around, including 2 Iron Cats decorating a wall, and a pair of coppery Herons.

Lighthouse Outdoor Lighting of Indianapolis

This project features many different materials in the landscape. Most notable was the boardwalk under the deck and the timber framed deck and patio cover. Accent lighting was added around the property to highlight trees, shrubs, fountains and walkways to add visual interest and extend the usability of the outdoor space long into the night for parties and gatherings.

Contemporary Landscape Design for a Narrow Back Yard in Napa, CA

Dig Your Garden Landscape Design

Napa, CA Residence. I designed a triangular-shaped pergola with decorative panels from "Parasoleil" that serves as an artful focal point while providing interesting shade patterns that cast a shadow along the fence and the built-in bench below it as the position of the sun changes throughout the day. I designed a contemporary redwood horizontal fence to also help screen the view of the hillside with arbors for vines and to break up the long narrow space. The landscape design includes angular planting beds, concrete pavers surrounded by gravel and a small lower-water lawn for the family to enjoy. Low-water plants, vines and olive trees are planted throughout the space. Drawings, Design and Photos © Eileen Kelly, Dig Your Garden Landscape Design

Garden Design Ideas with a Vertical Garden and Decking

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.
