An area of the home that is often left till last (or sometimes forgotten about altogether) is landscaping. In Australia, we have an amazing climate, meaning we can enjoy our outdoor spaces year round. With a bit of clever planning, some prep and a touch of regular maintenance, it can become like another room of the home.

If you’re chasing some landscaping tips, ideas, inspiration or help, then Style Curator has you covered. We love our gardens, but we’re no experts… so we bring them in to help! Bringing you the best, most helpful and most professional advice, ideas, tips and pro-tricks to make your outdoor space an extension of your home.

We have an article about the 10 most common landscaping mistakes and how to avoid them. From lighting advice, tips on plant crowding, overloading on colour and planning for just one season. Our experts share their best and most helpful tips to make sure your outdoor area is a stunner, year round.

We talk mulch with the professionals in the know. What type, how much and where to place it. Gardening advice to have your outdoor area in tip top shape.

We also take you inside (or outside, really!) all the gardens and outdoor spaces from The Block. The perfect way to get ideas and inspiration on what to do at your place with loads of pics to peak your interest.

There’s also plenty of landscaping articles and real home tours to inspire you. See what you love, see what others have done and then create your own outdoor paradise.
