PERSONALISATION IS KEY: Nearly half of homeowners who are renovating their outdoor spaces are motivated by recently having purchased a home and wanting to make it their own (44%). Other top motivations include that the space deteriorated (24%) and finally having the time to undertake an upgrade (23%).
EXTENSION OF LIVING SPACES: Renovating homeowners are relaxing and spending time with their families in their outdoor spaces (63% and 40%, respectively), creating comfortable spaces with purchases such as outdoor dining and lounge furniture (43% and 33%, respectively). Nearly one in 10 is investing in outdoor kitchen equipment, such as a grill and built-in cabinetry, a sink, and/or a refrigerator (8%).
A GOOD NEIGHBOUR: Nearly one in five homeowners reports interacting more with neighbours post-landscaping update. Top interactions range from small talk (73%) and exchanging courtesy greetings (67%), to helping when needed (45%) and sharing drinks or meals with each other (32% and 17%, respectively).
LIGHTING GOES SMART: Nearly two-thirds of homeowners are updating lighting during their outdoor projects (62%). Of those making this upgrade, one in ten is installing “smart” lighting that can be controlled from a mobile device (15%). Other top types are LEDs, solar, and low-voltage lighting.
