Long, light evenings and warmer weekends mean one thing: it’s time to bring your garden to life and host the ultimate gathering. Whether it’s a relaxed barbecue with friends, a sunset dinner party, or a spontaneous family get-together, your outdoor space deserves to shine and we are here to help you set the scene.
From statement planters to stylish decorative screens, here’s everything you need to create a garden that feels as welcoming and elegant as your home.
Set the Stage with Stylish Structure
Start by creating a layout that feels intentional. Use composite fencing or decorative panels to zone your garden - separating dining, lounging, and planting areas. Not only does this make your space feel more luxurious, it also offers privacy and creates an intimate atmosphere, perfect for entertaining.
Dress It Up with Planters
Nothing transforms a space like greenery. Our statement planters are perfect for framing your seating area, or adding seasonal colour to your patio. Choose between a variety of styles, colours and sizes - all providing durability with their weatherproof properties.
Go for the cottage look and opt for nature inspired designs such as Blossom. Or choose the more contemporary look with grey undertones and modern designs such as Zenith.
Create Comfort with Seating and Shade
The best garden gatherings are those where guests enjoy the atmosphere. Invest in quality seating, pile on cushions, and don’t forget the shade - whether it’s a parasol, pergola or a vine-covered trellis. Add throws or outdoor blankets for a touch of softness as the sun sets.
Complement your soft furnishings with the tones and textures of your fencing and screening for a cohesive, designer look.
Light It Right
When the sun goes down, the party begins. Add ambiance to your garden with our new outdoor lighting, which are compatible with both walls and our fencing collection.
For added atmosphere, why not add some flickering flameless candles to your outdoor table to bring an element of cosiness to the outdoors.
The Finishing Touches
It’s the little details that elevate your gathering. Add warm blankets as the cold breeze kicks in, or a portable speaker with a mellow playlist, and you’re ready to entertain in style.
