We always keep our finger on the pulse of the latest trends in outdoor design, ensuring that every Creekside Outdoor Living project not only reflect contemporary tastes but also stands the test of time. As we look towards 2024, several exciting landscaping and patio trends are emerging, promising to redefine our outdoor spaces. Here’s a glimpse into the future of outdoor living, showcasing the trends that will shape our gardens and patios in the coming year.

Embracing Sustainability in Design

Eco-Friendly Materials and Practices

Sustainability continues to be a major trend, with more homeowners opting for eco-friendly materials and landscaping practices. From recycled decking materials to native plant gardens that require less water and care, 2024 will see a continued shift towards environmentally responsible outdoor spaces.

The Rise of Outdoor Rooms

Blurring the Lines Between Indoors and Out

Outdoor rooms are set to become even more popular, with designs that seamlessly transition from the indoors to the outdoors. Think fully equipped outdoor kitchens, cozy living areas with fireplaces, and even outdoor offices, all designed to make the backyard an extension of the home’s living space.

Smart Technology Integration

Innovative Outdoor Living

Technology will play a bigger role in outdoor spaces, with smart irrigation systems, lighting, and even entertainment systems becoming standard. These technologies not only offer convenience but also enhance the enjoyment and functionality of outdoor areas.

Bold Colors and Textures

Making a Statement with Design Elements

While natural tones will always have their place in outdoor design, bold colors and textures are making a comeback. From vibrant outdoor furniture cushions to textured hardscapes, expect to see more homeowners making statement pieces out of their outdoor features.

Year-Round Enjoyment

Extending the Outdoor Season

With the right features, the outdoor season doesn’t have to end with summer. Heated patios, weatherproof enclosures, and cozy fire pits are just a few ways we’re helping clients enjoy their outdoor spaces year-round, regardless of the climate.

Low-Maintenance Landscapes

Simplifying Outdoor Care

Time is precious, and low-maintenance landscaping continues to rise in popularity. Drought-resistant plantings, perennial gardens, and automated maintenance systems allow homeowners to enjoy beautiful outdoor spaces without the constant upkeep.

Edible Gardens

From Garden to Table

The farm-to-table movement is growing, literally, right in our backyards. Edible gardens, including vegetable patches, herb gardens, and even fruit trees, are becoming a staple in landscape design, offering both beauty and bounty.

Multipurpose Garden Features

Functional and Aesthetic Design

Garden features that serve multiple purposes are in demand. Rainwater collection systems that double as decorative water features, seating walls that provide both structure and a place to gather, and garden beds that enhance privacy are all part of this trend.

Biophilic Design Elements

Connecting with Nature

Biophilic design, which seeks to connect homeowners with nature, will influence outdoor spaces significantly. Incorporating elements like water features, green walls, and ample greenery, these designs aim to enhance well-being by fostering a closer connection to the natural world.
