“Winter often leaves us longing for the warmth and vibrancy of spring. There is a current trend sweeping the world by incorporating bold and vivid colours into your backyard. This creates an environment that lifts your spirits and invigorates your senses.”
“You only need to look at the global Barbiecore explosion where everything in bright Barbie pink was being embraced across every facet of the home,” said Robert Fuller, Managing Director, Hideaway Covers.
“Colour has the power to evoke emotions and positively impact our mood, making it a perfect tool to embrace the arrival of spring and leave behind the dreary winter days; and even if you don’t want to embrace Barbie pink, there’s a number of ways you can tastefully incorporate splashes of colour into your backyard or entertainment areas,” Robert added.
To help you embark on your colourful journey and bid farewell to winter, many landscape architects are now incorporating Hideaway Covers’ products into their landscape designs together with the following inspiring ideas to revitalise your backyard.
Here’s Hideaway’s top 10 tips to add pizzaz, colour, and personality to your backyard or outdoor entertainment area:
Bursting Blooms: Welcome the season of renewal by planting an abundance of colourful flowers. Choose a mix of spring bloomers such as tulips, daffodils, playful pansies, roses and hyacinths to create a breathtaking display of hues. Arrange them in vibrant clusters or mix different varieties for a diverse and eye-catching flowerbed.
Radiant Outdoor Furniture: Give your outdoor furniture a fresh makeover by repainting or adding colourful cushions and pillows. Opt for shades that reflect the energy of spring, such as sunny yellows, refreshing greens, or vibrant blues. Not only will this instantly brighten up your backyard, but it will also create a welcoming space for outdoor and backyard gatherings and relaxation.
Conceal the Unsightly: pool pumps, air conditioning motors, gas and water tanks, are all essential services but detract from the ambience of your entertaining space. Hideaway Covers specializes in concealing these with innovative covers that add a splash of vibrant colour to your backyard. Their concealment solutions are available in 26 Colorbond® colours, allowing you to seamlessly integrate them into your outdoor space. By hiding these functional but often unsightly elements, you can maintain the visual appeal of your backyard while adding a feature pop of colour.
Playful Pathways: Transform your garden pathways into whimsical journeys with the help of vibrant colours. Consider using mosaic tiles, decorative pavers in different shades to create a mosaic effect, or pre-finished timber look concrete sleepers. These pathways will not only guide you through your garden but also add an artistic touch that complements the surrounding greenery.
Captivating Containers: Infuse your backyard with colour by utilizing an assortment of vibrant pots and planters. Experiment with various shapes, sizes, and shades, and mix and match them to create a visually appealing composition. Fill them with an assortment of flowers, succulents, or even herbs to add an element of liveliness to your backyard space. Consider lavenders to add purple hues, lovely scents, and helps to keep those pesky mosquitoes at bay.
Artistic Accents: Spruce up your backyard with artistic accents that celebrate the arrival of spring. Hang colourful wind chimes, place vibrant outdoor sculptures, or install colourful banners or flags. These artistic touches will not only add visual interest but also create a festive atmosphere that welcomes the new season.
Cheerful Outdoor Lighting: Extend the enjoyment of your backyard into the evening hours with the help of vibrant outdoor lighting. Consider LED string lights in various colours, lanterns with colourful shades, or LED spotlights that can be adjusted to different hues. The warm glow of colourful lights will create an enchanting ambiance and allow you to appreciate your backyard long after the sun sets.
Mesmerising Water Feature: whether adding a prominent water feature or a semi-hidden one amongst your garden, the background calming sounds of gentle running water creates an ambience of being at one with nature. The inclusion of an in-pond, low voltage, spot light delivers a night-time, resort style, mood to your new colourful outdoor entertaining area and makes your water feature an evening centrepiece.
Enhance the Visual Appeal: in addition to concealing unsightly elements, Hideaway Covers’ products, like their outdoor storage toy box, can actually enhance the visual appeal of your backyard and provide functional storage, as well as seating. The vibrant colours they offer can serve as focal points or complement other colourful elements in your outdoor space. By strategically placing Hideaway’s concealment and storage solutions, you can create a harmonious and visually stunning backyard oasis with multi-purpose functionality.
Streetscape Statement: house-proud owners know that their home needs to have a strong welcoming presence for family and friends. This means having a stand-out statement such as a sculpture or carefully curated landscaping that sets the welcoming tone and provides continuity to the backyard entertaining area for your visitors. It also means using Hideaway’s products to conceal water, gas and hot water tanks that detract from your home’s streetscape appeal.
