Bringing your garden to life involves a lot more than simply focusing on the plants, shrubs and trees you want to take centre stage. You’ve also got to consider the potential for garden features throughout the space, which also really help transform your outdoor spaces.
But what to go for?
If you’re not entirely sure what direction you’d like to take your garden in here are just a few ideas to help you get started
Contemporary water features
Modern water features are a great idea, particularly for urban gardens where you want to connect to nature in as many ways as possible.
Options range from reflective pools and wildlife ponds to vertical water walls, water blades and rain curtains, all of which can add sound and visual interest to your garden.
And don’t forget that you can extend these features vertically, as well, with stone columns fitted with a bubbling spout.
Pergolas & arbours
Garden arbours and pergolas are a beautiful way to combine high-end aesthetics with functional practicality, helping to create a focal point outside, provide a space for climbing plants and give you somewhere to relax.
Available in a range of materials and sizes, you’re sure to find something that suits your garden perfectly.
Fire pits
Installing a fire pit or having some other kind of outdoor heating option means you can easily use your outdoor spaces even after the sun has gone down.
And if you don’t want an outdoor kitchen, consider investing in something like a kadai which allows you to both provide a source of heat and an option for al fresco cooking and dining!
Of course, these are just a few ideas and there’s significant scope for other features. If you’d like to find out more, get in touch with the LW Landscapes team today.
