Inspiration
Yardtopia is attainable on any budget. Start small with projects such as DIY seating, a simple bistro set, or outdoor rugs to define spaces.
Take the next step with weather-resistant furniture, shade structures, or a grill station. Go all out with a sleek firepit, an outdoor theater, or a full outdoor kitchen.
Create the exact Yardtopia you and your loved ones will spend time in.
Consider play areas and soft ground cover if you have kids. Plan pet-friendly running areas for your four-legged friends. Unwind with the addition of a yoga deck or outdoor workout space for yourself.
For entertaining, think about comfortable yet durable outdoor seating areas and movable furniture.
Top it all off with California native plants that thrive in our area and are low-maintenance and drought-tolerant.
Adding pathways through your yard creates a refined sense of visual cohesion while increasing functionality.
Pavers come in natural stone, brick and concrete, with hundreds of styles and colors to fit your vision. For natural paths, use stepping stones or log slices to create a seamless look with your garden. Gravel is ideal near garden beds and areas that need water.
There’s nothing more magical than adding homegrown food to your palate.
Grow food at home with raised garden beds and container gardens. These not only enhance the beauty of your outdoor oasis but deepen your connection to your yard. Use efficient watering techniques to keep costs low and your yard thriving.
