Hardscape for Large Lots in Parkland: Planning Guide
· By Leonardo Ferreira
Parkland is known for large lots and gated communities such as Heron Bay, MiraLago and Parkland Golf & Country Club. With more space come bigger hardscape projects, and bigger projects need more planning.
Big decks need a drainage plan
A wide pool deck can move a lot of water. Slope, drain locations and joints are planned so storms do not leave puddles in the middle of the stone.
Break up large surfaces
Borders, bands or slab and turf patterns keep long driveways and large decks from looking flat and monotonous.
Transitions
Where stone meets turf, landscaping and the house, clean transitions make the project look designed, not pieced together.
Community review
Gated communities usually review exterior projects. Plan for submissions and approval time.
