“It’s often the norm in traditional<br />
gardens to paint outdoor details<br />
in harmonious colours to blend in<br />
with their surroundings, we love the<br />
idea of adding vibrancy to highlight<br />
specific features. Pair a piercing<br />
blue colour like ‘Marine Blue’ on<br />
architectural details and pillars with<br />
a hit of bright sunshine yellow using<br />
plant pots painted in ‘Mister David’.<br />
Unique and bright pairings create a<br />
transportive space and a wonderful<br />
narrative with green foliage.”<br />

“Illuminating your outdoor space<br />
is not only practical but is sure to<br />
wow any guests that visit your home.<br />
For a symmetrical, modern style we<br />
recommend spike or bollard lights<br />
as they are ideal for lining down<br />
the sides of the driveway for an<br />
even spread of light. For the best<br />
coverage, you can opt for powerful,<br />
PIR flood lights, which use sensors<br />
to detect motion as your car pulls up<br />
the driveway, automatically triggering<br />
the light to assist you with parking.<br />
You can also consider dusk ‘til dawn<br />
lights, that conveniently provide<br />
light without pressing a button, using<br />
photocell sensors that detect natural<br />
light levels and switch on accordingly.<br />
Overall, Driveway lights and spike<br />
lights are the perfect fit to create an<br />
illuminated pathway that is guaranteed<br />
to wow any visitors to your home.”<br />

“Transforming a front garden with<br />
pots, tubs, or planters can instantly<br />
enhance its appeal. Begin by<br />
selecting a variety of plants suited<br />
to the climate and light conditions.<br />
Arrange them strategically,<br />
incorporating different heights<br />
and textures for visual interest.<br />
Consider adding decorative elements<br />
like trellises or ornamental<br />
statues for added charm. Regular<br />
maintenance, including watering<br />
and pruning, will ensure your<br />
front garden remains vibrant and<br />
inviting. With creativity and care,<br />
pots, tubs, or planters can turn a<br />
mundane space into a captivating<br />
entrance that welcomes guests with<br />
natural beauty.” – Jamie Port,<br />
