A well designed garden is a great asset to any home, and can make for the perfect idyllic retreat where you can relax and get away from it all. If you're thinking of redesigning and breathing new life into your garden, then here we offer some handy hints and tips to help you to transform the look of your garden.

Pick A Style

When attempting to revamp the look of your garden, it's best to start by deciding on an overall theme and style, as this will really help to bring your design together and act as a great starting point. For more information about the different types of garden style, take a look at our previous blog.

Tidy Up

If your garden is looking a little cluttered and untidy, make sure you give it a bit of spruce up and get rid of any junk and unsightly weeds. It's also a good idea to organise your tools and other garden essentials too, so you can make space for your new revamped garden design. You will more than likely be pleasantly surprised by what a difference this can make and how much more spacious your garden will feel.

Function

When designing any garden, it's also important to consider exactly what you are going to use it for. For example, if you're planning on using your garden for entertaining then a well designed patio area, complete with some beautifully designed patio furniture, is a must. Choosing the right style of furniture is also essential, as the right furniture can really enhance the style of your garden and can also make for a great focal feature too. You might also want to consider investing in some exterior lighting, so you can make the most of this extra outdoor space.

Start With A Focal Point

Working around a focal point such as a sculpture or even a particularly spectacular plant that really draws the eye, can really help make things easier when it comes to redesigning the layout of your garden.

Take Your Time

By starting small and taking your time, you can help ensure you are happy with the final result. This will allow you the time to take stock and reflect on whether you are happy or not with the changes you are making. Taking a more relaxed approach can also make the whole process more enjoyable too.
