If you're anything like us, every home project, no matter how big or small, starts the same way with an innocent scroll on Pinterest. One minute you’re looking for garden ideas, and next thing you know, you’ve pinned a full exterior renovation, five paint colour palettes, and convinced yourself to create a Mediterranean courtyard in your back garden.
We get it. We’ve been deep in the Pinterest trenches too (purely professional, of course) and we’re here to share the latest trends we’re loving when it comes to home exteriors and that all-important garage door.
Exterior Trends We’re Loving
Now that the sun’s out and gardens are having their moment, Pinterest is buzzing with earthy tones, soft greens, and modern greys. Whether you’re working with a classic Victorian terrace or a crisp new-build semi, people are paying close attention to their exteriors.
And rightly so! Your garage isn’t just a storage space, it’s part of your home’s personality.
Say you’ve got a Victorian terrace with a garage tucked at the back of your yard, why not bring natural, green tones to your outdoor space with a Chartwell Green Garolla garage door?
Match it with your front door, throw in a few coordinated plant pots, and your terrace row just became “Pinterest-worthy”.
Or maybe you're going full countryside aesthetic (we see you, Country Living fans). A cream Garolla garage door is charming, timeless, and blends beautifully with everything from stone paths to wildflower borders.
Less Grey in 2025?
We’re seeing a major shift toward warm, welcoming tones. After years of crisp whites and cool greys, homeowners are craving colour with character. Shades like Fir Green, Walnut, and even Purple Red are gaining serious traction, and it’s not hard to see why. They ooze sophistication whilst still feeling cosy and modern.
Or maybe you’ve chosen Walnut for a more grounded, earthy vibe.
Contemporary or Traditional?
If sleek and modern is your thing, Anthracite never misses. Pair it with similar window frames and contemporary cladding, and your home will look effortlessly put together.
And for those who prefer a more traditional look, our woodgrain finishes, like Walnut, Irish Oak, Golden Oak and Blackcherry, offer all the charm of timber without the risk of weathering.
Don’t Forget the Details
Your garage door takes up a fair bit of visual space. Don’t let it be the one thing holding your exterior back. Whether you're going bold or keeping it classic, upgrading your garage door is a simple way to totally transform your home's look, and add security and value while you're at it.
