August 2025

Get inspired by our contemporary ideas - featuring outdoor kitchens, chic lighting solutions, stylish sheds, and more

Are you on the lookout for some modern garden ideas? Whether you're ready for a complete outdoor overhaul or just after a few quick tricks to make your space more welcoming, there are plenty of ways to begin your garden's contemporary transformation right here.

Whether you want to create an outdoor living room or kitchen, add ambient lighting and stylish colour schemes, or even try your movie night outdoors, it's easy to make a few simple changes to your space.

Contemporary gardens are often a great choice for busy families, who want to enjoy their garden without hours of maintenance involved. Think sleek, pared-back designs, natural materials, minimal colour schemes, even minimal planting. Work with straight lines, and if in doubt, take it out!

It's not an all-seasons solution, but an outdoor cinema can be a real luxury in the warmer months, while the evenings are still balmy (or at least bearable).

Portable indooroutdoor projectors are available at all price points, so investing in one-along with a screen - is a great idea if you enjoy film nights with family or friends.

Add some picnic blankets and a cushion or two and you've got yourself a free evening out just get your popcorn at the ready!

Your patio floor makes all the difference to your garden, so invest in a sleek design. These gorgeous tiles have a pared-back, minimalist feel for instant cool.

Patterned tiles work equally well - they lend a Moroccan feel to a garden and have the added benefit of creating an 'outdoor room' feel to a space.
