It seems like the outside season is never long enough. Homeowners are constantly looking for creative ways to design outdoor areas that are comfortable, distinctive, and enable them to make the most of their warm days and evenings. Check out the top 5 trends that are reshaping outdoor spaces, from outdoor kitchens and living areas to retro-shape pavers making a comeback to new ecologically responsible choices.

Decked-out living areas — By relocating indoor rooms outside, homeowners are increasing the usage of their outdoor space. The equipment in outdoor kitchens is comprehensive and includes preparation counters, pizza ovens, and grill islands. The outside living space has a fireplace, comfortable furniture, an area rug, and a large screen TV. Your attractive meeting spaces will be defined by a creative use of pavers, such as a variety of types and colors, contrasting borders, and vertical components like steps, low walls, and pillars.

Mix & match - Experiment with a variety of pavers in various sizes, colors, styles, and textures to give your outdoor patio a distinctive look and feel. Combine them to make unique designs or a pixelated effect that are not only eye-catching but also conceal stains and blemishes.

Give it a hex - The hexagon form is making a resurgence everywhere, especially in backsplashes for kitchens and bathrooms and in wallpaper designs. Today, patios and paths outside can be seen with pavers in a six-sided configuration. Respect the geometric design by leaving the pavers whole on the project's edges for an unusual appearance.

Permeability - Use permeable paving materials to assist limit the quantity of water that drains into public pipes, which can become overworked after a severe storm. In the gravel base below, where it is organically absorbed back into the ecosystem, water runs through the joints in the pavers. Permeable pavers make sense for a big patio, pool deck, or driveway as more towns are limiting the amount of impermeable surface space you are allowed to have on your property.

Take a seat on a wall - Adding additional seating around a fire pit, water feature, small patio, flower bed, or raised garden is an easy and beautiful solution to make gardening easier and more comfortable. Construct your own seat wall using a flexible method for an outdoor project that not only serves a practical purpose but also adds visual appeal.
