Trends Alert 2022: 5 items to integrate into your landscape plans

A contemporary yard is warm, comfortable and functional, all at once. This style uses open spaces, clean lines and neutral tones to create a special atmosphere. Large concrete slabs are the ideal surfacing for this type of décor. Supra Citadin M60 slabs, with their smooth finish and seven hues are perfect candidates to give your yard a contemporary feel. Installing them in a runner pattern brings out their best features and opens up the space.

Friends and family congregating around the pool on hot summer days never gets old in Quebec as installing pools is as popular as ever in 2022. While their function remains the same, their style keeps evolving! The traditional light blue hues are now giving way to whites, greys and beiges, which blend with elegant decors and add to our enjoyment of life.

• White: A timeless color, white gives the pool a chic, clean look. In addition, the water scintillates under the sun’s rays and darkens under cloudy weather.
• Beige: This sand-colored hue gives a seaside effect. The water assumes a nice natural blue that can tend toward green depending on depth and luminosity.
• Grey: Opting for lighter or darker grey makes it easy to harmonize the pool color with the existing installations, while conferring a contemporary, relaxing, even a tad industrial, touch to your space.

Whatever color you choose, Bolduc slabs, pavers and copings are the perfect complement to enliven your pool area.

Pavilions, pergolas, and covered patios are all ways to extend your outdoor pleasure. Rain, cool evenings and the blazing sun won’t stop you from enjoying your yard! In fact, when these installations are equipped with patio heaters and retractable awnings, they will protect you from the elements and offer you a nice cozy area. It is a must that allows you to extend your enjoyment of the outdoors from the nascent warmth of spring to the ebbing beauty of fall.

Incorporating vegetation into your décor is a wonderful way to breathe life into your landscaping project. You can achieve this by opting for bordered flower beds for structure, flower boxes and walls for depth, or clay pots to brighten up nooks. Here too, you’ll be grateful for Bolduc products, notably their wallstones and curbs, in creating permanent decorative elements.

Climbing plants, grasses and palm trees are very trendy these days. They add color to your décor while providing a nice cover for privacy. Succulents, cacti and ferns provide pattern and texture, while trees and shrubs can hide certain less appealing items and provide shade. Also, consider integrating a vegetable garden, fruit-bearing plants and herbs into your outdoor space. Planted or potted, they are a colorful, creative, delicious addition. And finally, don’t forget how abundantly blooming perennials can add character!
