How To Maximise Your Outdoor Space

How To Maximise Your Outdoor Space
We’re not all blessed with huge garden spaces or massive outdoor decking areas, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t turn your small space into something charming and beautiful in its own right. The ways to maximise your outdoor space aren’t that difficult, and are really about enhancing what you already have, and using a few handy tricks to make spaces look larger with optical illusions. 

Check out how it’s done:

Plan, plan, plan!
In order to get the best out of what you have to work with, you need to plan your space. This could mean drawing diagrams, playing around with furniture and moving it to see what works where best, because experimenting and planning the final layout is very important. 

Less is more
There is nothing worse than cramming a small space full of ornaments, because before you know it your space will have shrunk down to half the size of what it was to start with. Think less is more, and think small in terms of furniture – streamline and functional are the two aims you should have in mind.  

Use the walls 
If you have walls work with them. A great way to maximise your outdoor space is to wall-mount things and take them away from your floor space, freeing it up. There are some funky wall water features out there available to purchase, you just have to shop around, then there’s bird boxes, or even hanging plants. 

Work upwards, not across
We mentioned before that cluttering up your floor space will just give the illusion of less room, so instead work upwards. This will open up the space and give the illusion of a bigger area. Using stylish ladder style shelves are very popular these days, giving the area you choose to use it in some character. This is one of the best ways to maximise your outdoor space with minimal fuss. 

Make use of colour
Again don’t over-do it, but using brighter colours draws attention away from the size of the space and towards the brightness instead. It’s all about distracting from how much space you do have, and instead creating the illusion of more through shapes and colour. People won’t notice a small space if it’s done smart.

As you can see it’s not particularly difficult to maximise your outdoor space, in fact it’s simply a case of knowing a few tricks of the trade. 

Still to this day, the most effective and most popular way to maximise your outdoor space is to invest in a deck or patio. This allows you to extend your living area, and in the long run, add value to your home! The team at In Style Patios and Decks are the best on the Gold Coast.
