If you haven’t had the time or the creativity to spruce up your yard since the beginning of the year, but you very much would like to, now is the time. With the COVID-19 pandemic, you’re most likely home, social distancing, and self-isolating.
So, take advantage of the free time, and create the perfect landscape for your yard. If the challenge is where to start, don’t you worry. We’ve compiled the top five landscaping trends in 2020 that will help ease the burden of decisions on style, colors, and functionality.
1. Ornate, Geometric Designs Are Still Very Much In Vogue
Some ornate designs can make your home look like a palace from one of those Disney fairytale animations. You can play with designs such as waves, lattices, and basket weaves. For walkways and walls, tiles and natural colored stones are an excellent choice. Ornate decors are easy to maintain and beautiful to behold, and this makes it a great choice.
2. Contemporary and Transitional Designs Are In High Demand
More people are demanding contemporary designs that are sleek, simple, and season-defying. These designs are mostly made up of modern sculptures, native plants, heat lamps, and waterworks that would remain beautiful and functional across all weather seasons.
3. Automated Irrigation System Make Things Easier
Let’s face it; traditional irrigation is stressful, messy, time-consuming, and wasteful. In 2020, automated irrigation systems can supply sufficient water to your yard more efficiently, and what’s more, there are several DIY irrigation systems you can try.
4. Gardens Are Back In Style
In 2020, more homeowners are adding gardens to their landscape. If you do like naturally grown fruit and veggies, you can make your garden one that caters to your food and fruit needs.
5. 2020 Is Blue
Across the board, paint companies declared various shades of blue as top colors for the year. The blue color provides tranquility that is needed for relaxation, so do not be afraid to throw in a little more blue in your yard.
