The Internet and magazines like Architectural Digest, have made it possible for common people to get a glimpse into the luxurious residences and gardens of celebrities. Whether it is luxurious swimming pools, outdoor fireplaces, beautifully decorated gardens, or roof gardens, we cannot help but notice how every flower, tree, or piece of furniture has its role, regardless of whether it is functional or simply aesthetic.
While some keep their yard from the public eye, many celebrities have sports fields, riding fields, and mini botanical gardens in their yards; they also tend to change them according to the season, which they very often post on their social media profiles. So every season we look forward to seeing how famous people will rearrange their yards, just like Kim Kardashian brought a winter wonderland to her yards in California this Christmas. In all this, we cannot fail to notice the refinement and luxury of the Hagemøbler, which completes the whole picture. But for all this not to be a story from a magazine, in this article we bring you the secrets behind A-list gardens and give you ideas on how you can bring a touch of Hollywood luxury into your yards.
Celebrity Garden Insight
The gardens and yards of celebrities are most often the product of the carefully worked out ideas of great designers and botanists, and often include luxurious swimming pools, endless green areas, paved terraces with comfortable Hagegrupper and other garden furniture. Although they usually have many more outdoor spaces, the goal is that each space has its function, according to which specific outdoor furniture is chosen, and we can draw inspiration from the pictures we see in magazines and videos.
Design and Furniture
Trends and needs change, and so does the contemporary garden, which is in an ever-increasing dialogue between architecture, landscape and context. When you plan to create a garden, you must first take into account that, as far as the external environment is concerned, the garden has the same value as the other rooms of the house, and A-list gardens are actually not an element themselves, but represent an architectural, stylistic and aesthetic extension to houses, and include a mixture of textures, colours, shapes and focal points. Also, a quality outdoor space should be a habitable and functional part of the home that can be enjoyed in all seasons.
It may seem obvious, but the first thing to consider when choosing garden furniture is quality; garden furniture must be resistant to weather conditions, above all be a desirable combination of comfort and aesthetics, and not require a lot of maintenance. Another element to consider is colour. If bright colours are used in the garden, it is better to choose neutral-coloured furniture, however, a lot depends on the style you want to give the garden. Many celebrities opt for a Zen style that gives them peace and tranquillity, which they only have within their own space, while some will still opt for a more formal Italian style, and some for an English garden. This decision will actually guide you in the coordinated selection of furniture, materials, finishes, lighting, decorative elements, and vegetation.
DIY Tips
Thanks to TikTok and Instagram reels, these days we have the chance to witness that turning a garden into something you only see in magazines, does not have to be expensive, and if you take matters into your own hands, it can be even fun. However, before you start the work, it is best to determine the style, make a mood board, and then the budget. Start with small changes, test the soil and amend it, and only then start planting suitable plants. During that time, you can start with furniture conversion projects, reupholstering of existing furniture, and making a porch. All these changes will allow you to be creative and create something unique in your space.
Seasonal Issues and Maintenance
Plants and garden furniture require routine because just as everything else, the garden experiences four seasons of the year. If you do not want to change garden furniture every year, consider investing in quality furniture that can withstand the weather conditions of different seasons, or simply store it in the garage until the new season. Protect the plants properly from the winter, and regularly amend the grass and soil with organic matter so that it always looks like the one from the magazine. Trim trees regularly, and perform pest control so that your garden exudes health and beauty.
Practical Advice
Inspired by the most beautiful gardens of celebrities, you have decided to take matters into your own hands and arrange your garden, but you are not sure where to start. As mentioned earlier, the most important thing is to determine the budget priorities and available resources. If you feel that you do not understand plants and their annual cycles, consult an expert, who will certainly give you some good alternative ideas. You are thinking about the long term, buy quality furniture that will have a purpose in the space, but still suit your style. Most importantly, take the initiative, but do not rush decisions.
After all, we can say that a garden is a personal expression of human creativity and style preferences, and the gardens of famous people prove to us that creativity has no limits. However, in the past, luxurious gardens were a matter of prestige, and not everyone could have them, but today everyone takes the initiative into their own hands and turns their small gardens into magical oases. Choosing garden furniture, flowers, paving stones or materials for the patio can be very interesting, and DIY activities will help you build the garden of your dreams on a budget. The idea is a handful, all you have to do is pick up the hammer and start.
