This year, we have learned to pause and appreciate our outdoor spaces as lockdown brought the opportunity to spend more time at home. So, what are the garden design trends going into 2022?<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

All year round gardens\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Can\u00a0you achieve an outdoor space which can be used\u00a0year round\u00a0even with a cold climate? Absolutely.\u00a0With tactful design and by adding\u00a0key features, your home can easily accommodate an outdoor space to be used during all four seasons. Below are just a few ways you can achieve this:<\/p>\n

1. Weather resistant seating<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Create\u00a0a\u00a0seating\u00a0area\u00a0using walling products such as\u00a0<\/span>Garden\u00a0Stone<\/span><\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0<\/span>Secura\u00a0Lite<\/span><\/a>\u00a0meaning you won\u2019t have to drag heavy patio furniture in and out in wet weather.\u00a0Add outdoor cushions for\u00a0a pop of colour and comfort.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Fire\u00a0Pits<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Fire pits make a great social feature to any garden space. See below how Townhill Landscape Company used our <\/span>Country Stone<\/span><\/a>\u00a0walling to create a curved seating area with firepit feature. Perfect for inviting family and friends around for a social gathering!\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition to hard landscaping. Pip Proberts from BBC\u2019s \u2018Your Garden Made Perfect\u2019 suggests adding “<\/span>plants with interesting bark, berries, seed heads and foliage whether evergreen or simply leaves that remain over winter” <\/span>to ensure a\u00a0year-round\u00a0flourishing garden.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Porcelain Paving \u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Along with the rise in popularity of Porcelain paving came the shortage of materials and long delivery times. Tobermore\u2019s Beaufort<\/a>\u00a0range\u00a0offers the natural, contoured\u00a0look\u00a0of porcelain paving\u00a0with\u00a0a clean and modern finish.\u00a0<\/span>Beaufort<\/span><\/a>\u00a0is available in a range of contemporary, muted\u00a0colours making it the ideal choice for modern homes as a porcelain alternative.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Herringbone\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Herringbone is a classic laying pattern popular in interior design. This timeless and chic aesthetic can be recreated outdoors using paving blocks. With a wide range of colours and lengths of paving blocks suitable for herringbone, an array of patterns and versatile looks can be created to invigorate any patio or driveway. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Contrasting borders, linear paving and\u00a0a mix of colours can also be used to add interest to any space.\u00a0Why not try our clay\u00a0paver\u00a0alternative range\u00a0<\/span>Artro<\/span><\/a>\u00a0with\u00a0seven striking colours available to suit any\u00a0project.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
