Outdoor living areas have become so much more than additions to
the home, and the traditional backyard has been transformed into a multi
season extension of the home’s interior. The essentials of interior design--
-space planning, scale and proportion, color, and texture---integrate fur-
niture, lighting, flooring, textiles and accessories. A similar mix of artful
elements plays out in an outdoor living environment. Landscaping is no
longer considered an afterthought, but can be pivotal to the overall design.
The concept of outdoor living has been becoming broader since the 1970s,
and has encompassed an orchestration of landscapes, hardscapes and an
evolving view of approaches to exterior design. Outdoor kitchens mirror
the attention given to their interior counterparts. Living areas are no longer
a hodgepodge of serviceable but undistinguished furniture and sturdy, if
predictable fabrics. Pots of flowers, a couple of benches and a trellis have long given way to
lush landscapes, multi faceted hardscapes and sophisticated outdoor light-
ing. Landscaping can be over the top or understated. But creatively con-
ceived and executed landscaping is crucial to an outdoor living space that
gets high marks for aesthetics and functionality.
Few professional landscapers would dissuade homeowners from don-
ning gardening gloves and getting to work planting and pruning in the
yard. But a lack of knowledge and experience can cost time and money,
leading many homeowners to admit they wish they had sought profes-
sional advice. “Too often people invest a lot of money in plants but want to cut back
on reconditioning the soil as a way to save money. My biggest challenge
is to convince them to condition the soil before they begin any extensive
landscaping. Another problem is inattention to irrigation, drainage and
fertilization. If landscaping fails, contributing reasons usually are improper
watering and weed control,” says Tony Karimi, president of My Pool and
Patio and of Cardinal Nursery and Landscaping. “And, in most cases, a
lawn needs to be seeded at least once a year because of droughts.
“Too often people invest a lot of money in plants but
want to cut back on reconditioning the soil as a way to
save money. My biggest challenge is to convince them
to condition the soil before they begin any extensive
landscaping."- Tony Karimi
Most pros think in terms of a combination of landscaping goals. “The
idea is to have the landscape change throughout the year, with something
blooming all the time. We make sure you’ll have flowers from spring un-
til November. We build height differences and variations in color into gar-
den design. Of course, we design landscaping to complement an individual
home. People find it very helpful when we show them a 3D design. We visu-
ally walk them through the landscape, showing what the plants will look like
in five years with the hardscape and house in the background,” says Karimi.
He and his team interweave different types of stone paving into the
landscape design, using natural stone such as cobblestone, limestone or
slate as frequently as possible. He sees a trend toward man made products
for hardscapes. “We look at the lines of the house, the layout of the yard and how
it flows, then create a patio and outdoor living area to complement the
house. Each house demands its own application of products. For exam-
