One of the biggest trends in home improvement for 2023 is the focus on outdoor spaces. Recently, homeowners have rediscovered the importance of gardens as places to relax and spend time with friends and family. Spending time at home has become more prevalent than ever so it makes sense to increase investment in outdoor living spaces. Another trend we’re seeing a lot more of in recent years is to create an outdoor space that ties in with the indoors, for a cohesive look and feel throughout the home and garden. Investing in your home’s outdoor areas can increase its value, curb appeal and square footage.
