From a flat, green expanse to a backyard fairy tale, this renovation features a great alternative to an indoor lunch on a sunny afternoon. This outdoor space, complete with soft pillows, couches and fairy lights is as comfortable as your own indoor living room, with the bonus of breath of fresh air. Consider completing your renovation with a shed to keep your backyard neat and tidy after your transformation.
Outdoor shelter
Adding a bit of extra shade in the backyard is a simple renovation that goes a long way. The addition of a Bali hut, pergola or gazebo is a great way to utilise the space you already have. It offers not only protection for your outdoor furniture and barbeque set from the weather, but can also function as a poolside shelter, allowing you to dry off comfortably without bringing the water indoors.

Playground
This backyard transformed from plain and simple to a kid’s paradise. Adding some play equipment next to your outdoor entertainment area means that both you and your kids will be able to enjoy the outdoors to the fullest. It’s also great for birthday parties and the days when their friends from school are visiting. This way you keep the mess, noise and hyperactive energy outside.
