Hardscaping is the foundation of your landscape design. Think of hardscaping and hardscape products as the skeleton that supports your garden design, defines the boundaries of your outdoor living space, and gives form to the function of landscaping.
For truly memorable, multi-use outdoor spaces, whether formal or informal, hardscaping allows you to create texture in the overall design, define the specifics of an outdoor area’s function and provide a seamless connection in theme between gardens, walkways, outdoor entertaining, and pool areas.
Hardscaping uses natural stone, porcelain tile or slabs, textured or smooth brick, wood, formed concrete and paving stone to achieve the look and feel you want for your outdoor living spaces.
It’s the ‘non-living’, or functional, aspect of your landscape design. Although the terms hardscaping and landscaping are often used interchangeably, hardscaping in only one element in an overall property landscaping plan.
Hardscape products can be used anywhere and everywhere in your landscape design – driveways, garden walls and retaining walls, walkways, patios, garden or walkway edging, decks, water features, outdoor kitchens and pool areas.
Adding hardscapes to your landscaping plans, can transform your yard into an outdoor oasis with gentle, flowing transitions between landscape elements or create a dramatic, textured experience with rises or levels throughout the space. It’s all up to you!
When selecting hardscape products for your landscaping project, you are only limited by your imagination and budget!
Hardscaping can bring a garden to life by adding balance and focus to the softscaping, or plant life of the space. Hardscape products provide a focal point for a garden design, can create distinct sections, add dimensionality in height and width, provide boundaries for driveways and walkways with stone edging, or be used to create a standout feature in an outdoor kitchen.
Hardscape materials help to decorate an outdoor living space and give it dimension and texture. A garden or outdoor are without any hardscaping, tends to look flat, uninspiring, haphazard or messy.
Conversely, too much of good thing is just that, too much. A backyard or front yard hardscape design that doesn’t incorporate all manner of plant life, can too often look cold, barren or untouchable.
It’s all about balance when choosing the right hardscape products for your outdoor living space. Modern concrete pavers, polished porcelain slabs, rough hewn stone, silky smooth cobblestones, travertine or slate tiles, and textured brick ranging in earthy blues, greys, greens, reds, creams, nut browns to smooth caramels, are all possibilities. The right combination of hardscape product material, colour and texture can breathe a breath of fresh air into your patios, garden walls or edging, walkways, driveways and outdoor entertaining areas.
And StonePlace stocks a sample of them all for you to touch, see, and feel for yourself.
The sky is the limit when it comes to the variety of colours, materials and textures of hardscape materials. Weather resistant porcelain slabs, richly textured brick, formed concrete, cobblestones, river stone, gravel, stone or interlocking pavers, and travertine and slate tiles are all available to help you create surfaces, walls and structures within the landscape design.
Landscaping elements which typically use hardscape products and materials to create include:
When trying to decided what hardscape materials to use for your outdoor space, dream big! Start by making a list of everything you want in your landscape design. Think hard about the feeling you want to create when you’re in the space, and who will be using the space. A backyard area that’s designed for children or pets is a lot different that one that is designed for entertaining or relaxing.
One way to get a real feel for the space you want to create is by searching for images and designs that are published in magazines and online. You’ll start to gravitate to the style, colors, materials, and design ideas you love.
Consulting with a landscape designer or contractor is a great place to start! StonePlace can help with this too. We have a fantastic list of preferred suppliers we know and respect, who can guide you from start to finish on your project.
Then its all a matter of budget, time and making your dreams a reality.

Landscape edging provides a crisp, clean edge between different areas of outdoor living areas, gardens, driveways and walkways, walls and patios.
The truth is, most well-designed outdoor spaces have several areas that serve different purposes. Gardens, walkways, driveways, patios, outdoor cooking and eating areas, ponds and pools all have defined spaces. Landscape edging and curbs helps articulate where one outdoor space begins and ends. The correct use of landscape edging or curbs, allows for the creation of separate spaces while lending a unifying element to your landscape design.
Modern landscape design uses edging both for function and form.
