When it comes to a thoughtful and comprehensive landscape design, each choice should be considered in light of balance and how each element will affect the other. For instance, whether your retaining wall unit is intended to function as protection against erosion, as an enhancement of privacy, or as a seat or low wall, the appearance of the landscape will be affected – in particular the contrast between the construction and the softscape elements of the landscape. Take a look at the diverse range of Unilock products for a complementary retaining wall that will do justice to the greenery of your Cincinnati, OH, landscape.
Brussels Dimensional System
The aesthetic elements of your retaining wall system should naturally complement your home’s architectural style, color choices, and other design features. Adding a retaining wall also requires a consideration of the impact on the aesthetic effect of your softscape design. With Brussels Dimensional System, you can either embrace contrast with a light gray shade or allow the retaining wall to blend into the background, letting greenery become the star of the show. Color options abound and include Coffee Creek, Limestone, River, Sandstone, Sierra, and Brown. All are earthy colors that will provide varying levels of contrast with greenery, allowing for a flexible design and choice of softscape inclusions.
