Big Ideas For Small Gardens

March 30, 2015


When it comes to garden design you don't need acres of space in order to create your dream relaxing garden space. So if you're short on space in your garden, then here we give a guide to some top tips and inspirational ideas to help you make the most of your outdoor space.

Plan Carefully

When it comes to making the most of the space in your garden, good planning is essential; make sure you take the time to think about exactly what you are going to be using your garden for. For example if you’re thinking of using your garden for entertaining then planning a good seating area and entertaining space is essential.

 

Furniture

Good quality garden furniture can instantly transform the look of any garden. Try choosing varieties that can be folded away when you are not using them to increase the flexibility of the space in your garden. If you don't have the space for a large table and chairs then benches can make a great alternative in smaller gardens, and make for beautiful design features too.

Keep It Simple

Whilst plants and flowers can be a great addition to any garden, adding a welcome splash of colour, make sure you place a limit on the number of plants you put in, as too many can leave your garden feeling cluttered, and as a general rule it’s best to keep things simple. 

Height

Make the most of the walls and fences in your garden, after all these are valuable areas of space too. For example hanging baskets, window boxes, and trellises can draw the eye upwards and increase the feeling of space in your garden. Planting trees is also a great way to add height to your garden, without taking up too much ground space, and these can add some valuable extra privacy to your garden too.
