While we may be in the "dead of winter” there is still no time like the present to start thinking about your landscape. You don't have to be buying or
selling luxury real estate at the Lake of the Ozarks to be interested in the curb appeal of your home (but if you're selling your million dollar lake home, take notes!). Here are a few fun trends that you'll see hitting the ground this year. Take a look, and start making plans! Before you know it, the days will be 70 degrees and sunny again.
Practical Pergolas
These have been a staple for years, but whether you choose one made from wood or composite materials, you’ll find the sophisticated upgrades are making them grand. This can include roll down windows, space heaters, lighting and sound systems, and more! Pair this with a luxury outdoor kitchen, cozy seating area, a fire feature, and of course a large
pool overlooking the Lake of the Ozarks and you’ll find this to be a wonderful structure for your outdoor sanctuary.
Two-In-One Design
Homeowners are loving the ease of a piece that can double up on practicality and function. This could include a retaining wall that includes built-in seeing for your guests, or colorful garden beds that divide properties. If you are an avid gardener, it may even include a vertical garden on a trellis that also acts as a privacy fence. The possibilities are endless, and you’ll be seeing more of these doubled up pieces trending in landscapes.
Pretty Pinks
Pops of coral and blush are anticipated as a more feminine touch is coming to landscapes this year. Living Coral was named the Color of the Year by Pantone, and blush has been a trending color for several months now. These are the perfect shades to mimic those spring or summer blooms. Coral is also a very tropic shade, which can pair perfection with your outdoor oasis by the pool.
Technology at Its Finest
We’re sure you’ve seen this rise in popularity indoors as people are including robotic vacuums and mops into their homes. The same applies to the outdoors as well, as the latest technology and equipment allows for these outdoor tasks to be streamlined and efficient. Robotic lawnmowers continue to rise in popularity, not only among homeowners but also landscape professionals as well. Programmable irrigation systems and advanced lighting and electrical system are also a few other ways outdoor spaces are ramping up these smart homes.
Stunning Metal
Metal is very popular right now, both indoors and out. It can create a bold statement or romantic touch but can be a perfectly wonderful statement in your luxury landscape design. From decorative art, water features, or even furniture and accessories, creative uses for metal are becoming incredibly popular in luxury homes.
