Bringing the Indoors Outside

While the idea of combining the interiors and outside has been discussed for years, we now see it gaining increasing support as homeowners design for flexibility and usability. When they spend more time outside, homeowners are choosing shade structures like pergolas and decorative screen panels for increased privacy, additional decoration, and heat protection. Along with standard and unconventional fire pit designs, fully functional kitchens are becoming more and more popular as a way to enhance outdoor living. The backyard becomes the ideal hideaway when outdoor recreation facilities and activities are added, such as outdoor pool tables, mini-golf, or life-size chess pieces.

OUTDOOR DESIGN'S TOP 5 TRENDS 

Sustainability

In several industries, including outdoor living, sustainability is rising in importance. Homeowners now place a higher value on their outdoor living areas and wish to protect the natural and artificial components that go into making these spaces. We've been using permeable pavers for a while, but more people are asking for them these days, along with other recycled goods that are more durable and have an environmental benefit. The balanced, healthy lifestyle that homeowners desire is also reflected in the products they choose.

Discovering Color and Texture

When you play around with texture and color, designs become more elaborate and enjoyable. Homeowners are more willing to mix elements like pavers, wood, glass, metal, and composite materials to improve the appearance and feel of their outdoor spaces than they were in the past. Modular design naturally expands to include color and texture, which adds still another level of depth and dimension. To create elaborate patterns or add flashes of color throughout, paver designs might incorporate a variety of or complementary color palettes. The popularity of textured paver types is growing, so we'll be concentrating on that sector in 2023. Any outdoor design style will look lovely with pavers that have a polish or texture that resembles genuine stone.

Adding More Room

Homeowners have the chance to create an oasis with a variety of Room designs and biophilic architecture in the backyard (or front yard, porch, or anywhere in between). Although in more unconventional ways, gardening is making a comeback. Consider vertical or raised gardens that grow gorgeous flowers as well as fruits, vegetables, and herbs to help homeowners supplement their diets. For increased utility, these sections can be improved with built-in seating or with the addition of fire pit Rooms. Additionally, formal gardens with intricate patterns like Zen gardens and labyrinths complete with gazebos and other seating places are becoming more and more popular (perfect for an afternoon tea party).

Giving Technology Priority in Design

Outdoor living design is becoming simpler thanks to technology, both for homeowners and for professionals. The use of augmented reality (AR) in outdoor design is accelerating the procedure and enabling homeowners to see accurate renderings of their possible outdoor living space. More quickly and effectively than ever, quality AR enables clients to visually walk around their design and observe even the minute details, enabling them to make smarter judgments. In order to better serve all parties and the goal to design usable outdoor places for daily life, the industry continues to use and develop technologies like AR.
