Walkways

Make a Path Through Your Outdoor Space with Gorgeous New Walkways

An essential part of your landscaping is your walkways. You don’t want to trample over plants or wear bald spots into your grass by repeatedly walking the same path every time you step outside. Walkways are a great way to eliminate this problem and break up the monotony of a plain-looking yard. For a one-on-one consultation to plan the perfect landscape design that includes walkways for your Peoria home, contact Mark Hoerr Landscaping today.

Options for Your Walkway’s Design

Walkways provide more than just a way to get around. They can have a dramatic effect on the overall atmosphere of your landscaping. Choosing the right materials and layout will ensure your walkways are not just functional but another interesting element of your landscape design. A few options for materials include:

• Natural Stone – A great option if you want your paths to feel like they were made naturally. You can add to this look by adding some small plants between gaps in the stones.
• Brick – This classic landscape design looks great with just about any home, especially with a more traditional house.
• Mixed – You don’t have to choose just one option. For unique paths through your property, you can mix and match various materials to give your home the perfect eclectic look that matches your style.

What Functional Roles Does Your Walkway Play?

Whether you choose natural stone, concrete, or some combination of materials for your walkways, they must be functional. Walkways serve many different purposes, depending on where they are used and how they are laid out. Mark Hoerr Landscaping can help you select the best walkway designs and materials based on your property’s functional needs. A few examples of the roles of your walkway include:

• Creating an inviting path into your home or out to different areas of your yard.
• Helping guests to safely navigate from one place to another, such as a patio to a garden.
• Controlling the flow of walking. A short, straight path from your patio to your fire pit may get you there quickly, but a long, winding path through your garden will cause you to slow down and enjoy nature’s beauty.
