Don't save your best ideas for the back garden - the front garden can be just as imaginatively transformed
Turn your garden into a lounge... A large bed cum table is a great focal point for a funky contemporary courtyard
Large space to fill? Go for a range of materials to cover the ground - from decking to gravel to paving - and to break up the garden into zones.
Make your garden steps a feature in themselves by combining materials, such as decking and slate.
Break up a large surface of lawn with low lying beds, divided neatly and planted identically.
Combine grasses of different sizes and colours - and colour the background to show them off.
Disguise an ugly view with a free-standing feature - you needn't even grow plants up it.
Paint masonry brilliant white, woodwork blue and grow colourful climbers for a Mediterranean look.
For a smaller space, this is a great variation on the crazy paving scheme - and much easier to do with pebbles.
