New Zealand gardens are as diverse and expressive as the landscapes that inspire them—from coastal courtyards to native bush backdrops. One of the most impactful ways to elevate your outdoor space is with outdoor wall art—especially when it’s crafted in NZ-made steel that’s built to last.
Whether you're styling a fence, patio wall, or exterior façade, here’s how to choose and place outdoor art that brings personality, texture, and timeless appeal to your garden.
Start by identifying the best location for your outdoor wall art NZ:
• Timber fences offer warmth and contrast for corten steel pieces
• Concrete or brick walls provide a bold canvas for minimalist black or white designs
• Exterior house walls can be styled with larger pieces to create a focal point
For inspiration, explore our Outdoor Wall Art collection featuring NZ birds, native flora, and abstract forms—all designed for exterior styling.
Celebrate your connection to Aotearoa by choosing outdoor art NZ that reflects local themes:
• Birds like Tui, Fantail, and Kererū bring movement and meaning
• Floral motifs like Pohutukawa and Koru add softness and symbolism
• Typography pieces like Kia Ora or hello offer a warm greeting
Browse our Kiwiana Wall Art for steel designs that honour NZ culture with clean lines and weatherproof finishes.
Wall art works beautifully when paired with sculptural elements at ground level. Try combining:
• A corten steel Fantail wall piece with matching Garden Stakes
• A bold abstract wall sculpture with low-profile Garden Ornaments
This layered approach adds depth and visual rhythm to your garden design.
All LisaSarah pieces are crafted from corten or powder-coated steel, making them ideal for NZ’s varied climate. Corten steel develops a protective patina over time, while powder-coated finishes resist rust and fading.
If you're placing art in exposed areas, allow for natural runoff during the initial weathering phase. Learn more in our Corten Steel Care Guide.
Use stainless screws or masonry nails depending on your surface. For optimal viewing, hang your artwork at eye level—around 1.5m from the ground. If you're unsure, our installation tips can guide you through the process.
Styling your garden with outdoor wall art is about more than decoration—it’s about creating a space that reflects your values, your landscape, and your love for quality craftsmanship. With LisaSarah’s NZ-made steel art, you can transform any outdoor wall into a statement of style and identity.
