What Is Hardscaping, and Why Does It Matter?
Functional
Many hardscaping structures guide people through the property and between its buildings and features. Our experienced landscape architects know how to design walkways with clear routes and logical connections, keeping the property easy to move through.
Durable
Our landscape architects can recommend the use of quality hardscaping materials and engineering techniques to create low-maintenance, long-lasting structures suited for the local climate. For example, we may suggest reinforced concrete for high-traffic areas or expansion joints to withstand freeze-thaw cycles.
Safe and accessible
Our landscape architecture specialists prioritize safety and accessibility in every hardscape design. They incorporate features like anti-slip surfaces for pathways and playgrounds and ADA-compliant elements to ensure inclusive access for all.
Sustainable
Evergreen Design Group can recommend sustainable materials to help combat the heat island effect, integrate permeable concrete pavers for stormwater management, and design projects to minimize land disturbance. We also ensure that they comply with all applicable sustainability and environmental laws and meet or exceed local standards.
Types of Hardscape Elements We Design
Evergreen Design Group has extensive experience in hardscaping design for all types of projects. Here are some of the elements we can design for your next landscaping project:
Entry Monuments
Signs, structures, or decorative features with your property’s name, logo, or emblem make a strong first impression. We design entryways with pillars, arches, lighting, and landscaping to highlight the main entrance and reflect the site’s character.
Perimeter Structures
Walls, fences, gates, and bollards help define your property’s boundaries, control access, and shape its overall look. We also design sturdy bases for greenery, like concrete planters or hedges on raised platforms, blending structure with natural elements.
Retaining Walls
Walls built from natural stones like fieldstone, granite, or limestone help manage slopes, support terraces and planters, and prevent erosion while adding a natural, durable touch to the landscape.
Shade Structures
Pergolas, gazebos, and pavilions provide shelter from the sun and rain while elevating the aesthetic appeal of outdoor spaces. To make them more functional, we can incorporate features like built-in seating, railings, partial walls, or decorative accents for added style and comfort.
Walkways
Sidewalks, paths, and trails make it easy for visitors and residents to stroll around your property. We design patios, walkways, and driveways that naturally connect key areas like central plazas, creating intuitive routes that guide people where they need to go.
Outdoor Living Spaces
We design inviting outdoor spaces with fire pits, outdoor kitchens, pool decks, seating areas, and custom features tailored to your project’s needs.
