Designing with Artificial Grass || Winter Park, FL

Artificial grass is the latest craze in outdoor living trends.  It’s amazing for lawns, garden paths and seating areas…but did you know, you can create captivating designs with artificial grass?

Here are a few fabulous ideas to get you started on your own artificial grass area!

– Pool and patio decks
– Paver stones with artificial grass strips
– Rooftop gardens or decks
– Stepping stone paths
– Concrete pad edges

Imagine a pool deck made of artificial grass.  It’s a softer look (and feel!) that the typical concrete decking or pavers.  It provides a lush feel and it always looks neat and clean, which is certainly not the case for the usual concrete decking!

How visually inspiring would a grouping of concrete pavers and artificial grass strips look in your backyard?  It would be quite a statement piece and soften the hard edges of a plain, boring concrete pool deck.  Not to mention that artificial grass would work much better in strips than live, organic grass.  The live grass could get trampled, tamped down and eventually lose its crisp look, while the artificial grass will look gorgeous, green and picture-perfect for years.

Do you have a rooftop deck?  Do you want to create a gathering spot for sunsets, parties or just a nice, relaxing spot to read and enjoy the outdoors?  Utilizing artificial grass on a rooftop deck takes it from a boring, blank canvas to a gorgeous, green space that is full of warmth.  Artificial grass finishes the space and creates an  inviting gathering area.

No matter what kind of space you have, there are creative ways to utilize artificial grass to create visual interest and intriguing design.  Check back for future artificial grass design ideas.
