Turf Wars: A backyard putting green.
It’s Monday. You’ve worked a long, hard day and you are already dreaming of next weekend. Saturday you’ll sleep in a bit, then enjoy a rich coffee, and later go out to hit a bucket of balls and practice your short game on the putting green. Ah, it will be glorious. Sadly, it’s still Monday and you are about as far from the weekend as you could possibly be. You don’t have time to get over to the golf course and you’ve already had a glass of wine anyway. Better stay home and hit a few sinkers on your own putting green. That’s right, this part is not a dream! With the rise in popularity of artificial turf, home owners are naturally taking it up a notch with custom features. Here are just a few of the latest turf innovations:
Putting Greens: Whether large or small, backyard putting greens are a truly unique custom feature.
Custom Colors and Designs: Turf comes in every color you can imagine and can be incorporated into many fun shapes, such as stripes, squares, diagonals, scrolls, swirls, graceful curves for flowerbed borders, and more.
Game Spaces: What a better way to get everyone outside and engaged than with a game? Printed turf as lawn bowling, giant chess & checkers, and hop-scotch designs are the most popular. One imaginative owner opted for a life-sized Monopoly board, where the players themselves move as the game pieces!
Topiary: Animals, garden gnomes, shapes, etc. can be formed out of artificial turf. No trimming!
Paver Designs: Installing artificial grass in the spaces between large pavers gives an instant boost to your look with big impact. Depending on the shape, it can impart either modern minimalism or old-world charm.
Water Features: Incorporating turf into a water feature is beneficial in both look and maintenance, as it is easy to keep clean and algae-free.
Furniture: Couches, chairs, chaise lounges, and even pillows can be made and customized with colored turf coverings. Maybe outdoor movie theater seating? So many options!
Walls: Why not go vertical in your design? Think living wall, dividers, photo booth walls, and more.
Your Brand: Welcome guests to your home with a custom doormat. Have a favorite quote? Feature it on the ground or wall in a sweet garden nook. Big sports fan? Incorporate a team logo into your outdoor space.
The latest innovation in home landscaping and backyard design is artificial turf. With so many custom features it is easier than ever to have your backyard oasis reflect your personal style. True luxury is working to live, not the other way around. So enjoy your putting green, Monopoly board, or garden nook each and every day, weekends also allowed.
