Luxury Retaining Walls

Retaining walls are a common lawn feature that is often overlooked. However, these provide a great opportunity to level-up the look of your outdoor space to take it from basic to luxurious.  They keep soil on one side of the structure, allowing for a lower floor level on the other side of the wall. Though they serve a very practical purpose, there’s no reason retaining walls shouldn’t look good at the same time.

Many retaining walls are constructed with cement.

This look can be elevated by using decorative block work to create visually interesting patterns. This is more labor intensive than a simple block wall, but the result is a functional and unique feature.

Another option is to add in some steps!

Again, the luxury is brought in here through the labor and additional stone required to construct the steps. But this creates a more detailed look which conveys a well-appointed feel. Wide, smooth steps are also  a functional choice so you, and your guests, don’t have to hike up your retaining wall.

Lastly, play with the materials.

This is a great way to customize your retaining wall and take it from basic to luxurious. This can range from using a more expensive or unique stone to cladding the retaining wall in a wood panel. Both these options keep the retaining wall feeling more natural in your landscape, but in an elevated way.
