Guides & Ideas

The front door of a house sets the stage for visitors, shaping their initial perception of its style and atmosphere. It equally offers a sense of welcome to residents, and a cheerful return to a space proudly named home.

There's plenty of design potential for the surrounds of your pool; you can choose to focus on greenery and have your poolside feature various plants, trees and shrubs that extend your outdoor area and garden. Or you can concentrate on more functional design elements, such as choosing plants and materials that promote privacy and seclusion, or strip everything back and create a more welcoming and open environment.

There are endless ways to style a front garden, and every homeowner has their own style and design preferences. But sometimes, it pays to sink your teeth into a few ideas others have used to inspire your creativity.
