This Year's Garden Colour Trends - and How to Match Furniture
Garden design is all about creating a space that feels styled, curated, and effortlessly personal. And this year, colour is taking the spotlight.
2025’s garden colour trends are bold, soft, natural, and a little more expressive than seasons past. But no matter which hues you’re drawn to, they need to work with your furniture, not against it. But how do you balance colour confidence with timeless outdoor style?
In this blog, we’ll take a look at the standout garden colour trends of 2025, and how to pair each one with our long-lasting teak furniture that brings them to life.
1. Deep Jewel Tones
This year’s darker hues lean into luxury: deep emerald, inky blue, and plum purples add sophistication and contrast. These colours are ideal for larger patios or shaded gardens, these colours bring richness to space.
How to style it:
Use jewel-toned cushions or planters against the warm, natural grain of a teak patio set. The understated tone of teak beautifully balances bolder accents: try pairing a teak garden table and chairs with sapphire scatter cushions or a plum painted wall.
2. Earthy Terracotta
Terracotta and clay tones are having a real moment. They’re warm, grounded, and instantly inviting, making them perfect for creating a laid-back, Mediterranean-inspired outdoor vibe.
How to style it:
Teak works naturally in this palette. Consider pairing your outdoor teak table with terracotta pots, woven textures, and burnt orange accessories for a look that is cohesive and effortless. This tone-on-tone approach creates harmony without looking flat.
3. Soft Pastels and Neutrals
Soft tones like lavender, dusty rose, pale sage, and sky blue continue to be firm favourites for smaller spaces and light-filled patios. They’re the perfect colours to make everything feel airy and open.
How to style it:
Let your teak chairs act as a warm neutral base, then layer in pastel tones through textiles or accent decor. The beauty of teak is that it never overwhelms, just complements without competing.
4. Natural Texture and Warm Metallics
Texture is colour’s quieter sibling, and it’s everywhere this year. With bronze, brushed gold, rattan, and stone, these loos are more about depth than drama.
How to style it:
A slatted teak garden bench or a smooth outdoor teak table plays right into this trend. Add copper lanterns, woven planters, and linen fabrics to echo the tactile tones around it.
5. Nature-Led Colour
This trend embraces the entire garden as the palette. From wildflowers to lush greens and pollinator planting, your colour scheme can come straight from nature itself.
How to style it:
Let the planting lead the palette. Choose simple teak pieces that won’t distract from nature’s colour – like a teak patio set that grounds the space while letting greenery shine.

The best gardens don’t just follow trends – they adapt them in a way that feels right for the space. And the key to making any garden colour trend work long term? Choosing furniture that doesn’t date.
