There are many ways to help your garden look more modern, but adding furniture is one of the most effective. Whether you prefer a minimalist or bohemian style, there’s something here for you. But how can you make your garden feel more modern? Well, one way is by introducing modern outdoor furniture and accessories that won’t clash with the rest of your design. In this blog post, we explore some of the best ways to achieve this in your own garden.

Our Top Tips to make your Garden Look Modern

Mix Neutral Colours with Light Wood

Neutral tones are a popular choice for modern interiors, and they’re also the perfect choice for your garden furniture. Combining them with light wood such as teak will create a subtle yet stylish look. For example, our Tanso outdoor sofas are constructed from grade-A teak, to give an elegant and detailed aesthetic. You can also use weathered wood, which will give your furniture a more rustic feel. If you’d prefer a bolder colour, then consider adding a colourful cushion or rug. Alternatively, you could use bold plants in your garden to tie everything together.

Add Colourful Furniture and Accessories

Bright colours are an obvious choice for a more bohemian garden. You can choose anything from bold blues to vibrant oranges and reds, and there are many different options for you to choose from. Our Eos outdoor sofa armchair comes in a variety of colours to really brighten up your garden space. Alternatively, a wooden table and chairs would be perfect for a more traditional garden. If you’re planning on adding flowers, make sure you choose ones with bold colours. Tulips and lilies are particularly good choices. You can also add colourful cushions or rugs to help tie everything together.

Add Metal Touches

Just as wood is a popular choice for furniture, so is metal. It’s an incredibly versatile material that can be used in a number of different ways, making it a great choice for modern gardens. When it comes to outdoor furniture, you’ll often find that it’s made from metal. Our Eos Side Chairs and Eos Coffee Table are crafted from weather resistant powder-coated aluminium, making them perfect for outdoor use. When it comes to other furniture, you can choose to use metal in various ways. For example, you could use metal buckets in your garden to hold soil or water, or you could use it to create a bold feature wall.

Light up your Garden at Night

If you have a more modern-themed garden, then you might want to consider adding some bold lights to your space. They’re an ideal choice if you want to transform your garden at night. There are a number of different ways you can do this. You could use something like a string of fairy lights to create a more subtle effect or you could use a bolder piece of lighting like a neon sign. As long as your lighting matches your modern-themed garden, it will look great. If you prefer a more subtle approach, you could choose to use something like solar lights. They’re cheap to buy and don’t require any wiring, making them a great choice for those who aren’t particularly handy.
