2020 for many was a year thatsaw some impressive transformations of homes, gardens, and yards. Lockdown turned us into our own DIY geniuses with anuntamable need to rip, strip, sand, and pot everything, but is the same verve still on the cards for 2021?
Certainly for landscaping there are no signs ofslowing down, with designs and trends already in mind for what we are going to see this year. So, with that being said, let us take a look at the styles we are set to see in the garden this year!
Emphasis on Relaxation
While we are well on
our way to seeing the light at the end of the COVID tunnel, there is a high
probability that staycations will be the most popular (and allowed) choice this
summer, which means having our own oasis in our back yard is a very worthwhile
investment. If you did not manage to hop on the renovation trend last year, there
is still time to transform our yards from a home for broken wheelbarrows or the
shed that has been usable for at least 5 years – it is the perfect time to have
a clear out and create a wonderful haven from the stress of the World.
Once you have a blank canvas to work with, you can choose to do as little or as much as you want to, while creating your new idyllic space. Think big ‘garden cushions’, swinging chairs, day beds, cozy blankets, and anything else that can make you feel as comfortable as possible.
Split Level Yards
While split level yards are not anything new, it is suggested that they will be taking the center stage when it comes to outside renovations this year. Split level yards are great, because not only do they give garden lovers the option to create different platforms for different activities, such as growing a vegetable patch or having a seating area, but they also give you the chance to play with separate materials and dynamics while making the whole space look put together. If you are going to opt for a drastic change, but want to do it yourself, then make sure you get professional landscape materials and some advice!
