colour for my patio garden

I made a big decision during the summer to get rid of all the grass in my back garden and make it into a patio, with paving, bricks, stones etc. I had lots of images for my gardener to work with designing the garden, and he was excited to be working on it too. But the finished result is somewhat flat and dull I feel. Since the picture was taken we have powerhosed the fence and it actually looks really nice, it's a kind of weathered oak colour.

I would love to 'lift' the garden, had thought of painting the fence a pale sage green or light blue/grey - I live beside the sea - but would prefer not to as that would need maintenance.

What suggestions would you have for providing colour, interest, etc?

Many thanks in advance
