Top landscaping Design trends

With lockdown making us crave nature and more green spaces, it’s no surprise that gardening and landscaping has been enjoyed by many people.  Similar to the biggest interior design trends we’re expecting to see in the coming year,  many landscaping trends have inspired us to go for low-maintenance and eco-friendly spaces that can be used as an alternative to our normal “indoor” activities. Here are 3  of the biggest landscaping trends that will become even more prominent in 2021. 

Hotel-like Relaxation Area

Why go on a costly vacation when you can treat your garden as any seaside hotel? Landscape designers are leaning towards the use of plants and materials that gives a garden its uniqueness and takes it apart from the vulgarity of basic outdoor spaces.  

Enhance your recreation area with the following:

  • Speaker system that is properly protected from all kinds of weather
  • Good lighting to add a sense of splendor
  • Barbecue area for open-air dinner with friends or family

Engaging Garden Entryway

Whether you have a small garden or a balcony garden, a spectacular entrance to your outdoor area is a big trend in 2021. It should be welcoming, interesting, and most of all reflects who you are. 

Here are simple ways on how to make your walkway a good first impression: 

  • Decorate the path with fragrant and beautiful plants 
  • Make an interesting coverage
  • Pattern the color of the plants to complement the house or building's paint color

A Delightful and Safe Space

If you're a type of homeowner who likes a little bit more privacy and individual relaxation, an outdoor space closed from intrusion is what you need. You can build a platform for meditation, an outdoor jacuzzi, a pond or swimming pool, and even a corner hammock. 

Professional landscaping companies recommend having the following: 

  • Secluded area with a tiny body of water
  • Decorative plants with lush crowns
  • Putting a pergola or even a wall of tall plants
  • Creating a neutral color scheme/design 

Good Outdoor Furniture 

Choosing aesthetically pleasing outdoor furniture is important to create an inviting space. Whether it’s store-bought or custom-made furniture,  it should have a pleasing ambiance that is great for both lively and calm moments. 

Determining the look or theme of the space will guide in making the decision on what furniture to buy. To further help you with this, here are additional tips to give you direction when choosing outdoor furniture:

  • If you plan to dine outdoors, place tables and chairs near a door or window to transport food and beverages easily.
  • If you plan to have an outdoor chimney or fireplace, you should create a cozy seating area.
  • If you plan to have a relaxation area, create a nook by placing daybeds and lounge chairs.
  • If you plan to maximize the desirability of your outdoor space, add textiles and splashes of color that complement your landscape elements like stone and marbles
