The National Association of Landscape Professionals has released its official list of the top 2019 landscape trends.
Drawing upon the expertise of the industry’s 1 million landscape, lawn care, irrigation and tree care professionals, NALP annually predicts trends that will influence the design and maintenance of backyards across America in the year ahead. NALP develops its trends reports based on a survey of its members. It also draws from the expertise of landscape professionals from across the U.S. who are at the outdoor trends forefront.
“Homeowners yearn for beautiful outdoor spaces without the hassle of upkeep. With the rise of multifunctional landscape design and automated processes, consumers can spend more time enjoying their landscapes than ever before,” says Missy Henriksen, the NALP vice president of public affairs. “This year’s trends reflect current lifestyle preferences as well as innovations happening in the industry that are transforming landscapes across the country.”
NALP listed the following five trends to influence outdoor spaces in 2019:
Two-in-one landscape design
Functional elements are becoming a necessity in today’s landscapes. Consumers desire stunning outdoor features that have been cleverly designed to serve a dual tactical purpose. An edible vertical garden on a trellis that acts as a privacy fence, a retaining wall that includes built-in seating for entertaining, and colorful garden beds that divide properties all combine function and style. Take any of these options and add in functional water features, and your outdoor living space will be the talk of the neighborhood or business district!
Automated lawn and landscape maintenance
The latest technology and equipment allow tasks to be more streamlined and environmentally efficient than ever before. Allowing a landscape professional to automate and take care of all outdoor needs is a top priority and trend for many homeowners and businesses in 2019. Also, programmable irrigation systems and advanced lighting and electrical systems help outdoor spaces become extensions of today’s smart homes. Homeowners relish knowing that these technological advancements give them more time to relax and enjoy their outdoor spaces. Keep in mind that All Around Town Services offer everything you need in home automation, outdoor security, irrigation, maintenance, and more!
Pergolas
A staple of landscape design for years, pergolas constructed of wood or composite material are now becoming more sophisticated. They can now come with major upgrades, including rolldown windows, space heaters, lighting and sound systems. When paired with a luxury outdoor kitchen, seating area or fire feature, pergolas can become the iconic structure for outdoor sanctuaries. Here at All Around Town we offer both types of pergolas, as well as full design and installation of outdoor kitchens and bars. We use only the top suppliers and manufactures to provide the most amazing outdoor living spaces in the mid-west.
Pretty in Pink
Pops of coral and blush are anticipated to add a more feminine touch to landscapes this year. With Living Coral named the Color of the Year by Pantone, a leading provider of color systems and an influencer on interior and exterior design, landscape professionals predict that this rich shade of pink could bring fresh blooms of roses, petunias, zinnias and hibiscus to flower beds. Experts also anticipate light blush tones to become “the new neutral” and another option for hardscapes and stone selections. Stop in to our garden and pool center to meet with one of our design experts today. Or give us a call and we will come to you!
Mesmerizing Metals
Whether homeowners want a bold statement or whimsical touch, incorporating metals can bring new dimensions to landscape design. Used for decorative art, water features or furniture and accessories, creative uses of metals including steel and iron can make for lovely accents or entire focal points. Our designers can help you figure out what features will best accent your home or business design. Creating a layout that flows and fits right in with the structures around it.
