Hallmarks of Palm Springs Design
Drought-friendly plants: With its dry climate and little rainfall, water conservation is key in Palm Springs landscaping. That’s why drought-resistant plants like succulents, cacti, and ornamental grasses are a staple. These plants aren’t just built for the heat—they’re also super low-maintenance, perfect for busy homeowners.
Muted, natural colors: Palm Springs design draws from the desert’s palette, using soft earth tones, greens, and sandy browns for a seamless look. Want to spice it up? Add pops of color like pink or turquoise in outdoor furniture, decor, or flowers to give your outdoor space a bit of personality.
Geometric vibes: Inspired by Palm Springs’ iconic mid-century modern architecture, use geometric shapes like squares, rectangles, or triangles. You’ll see these shapes in pathways, garden beds, and even pools. They keep things organized while adding a cool, polished look.
Outdoor living, elevated: With sunshine all year, Palm Springs is made for outdoor living. This style brings comforts outside with swimming pools, lounge chairs, shaded patios, fire pits, and outdoor kitchens. It’s all about blending your home with the outdoors for the ultimate hangout spot.
Benefits of a Palm Springs Garden Design
