You’ve probably seen artificial grass in places like golf courses, businesses and resorts. You’ve also probably seen it popping up more frequently in home landscaping throughout North and South Carolina. After all, artificial lawns provide the look and feel of natural grass without the cost or time it takes to maintain a natural lawn. It’s a popular landscaping decision for a reason! The uses of synthetic grass are not limited to lawns, however. As is the case with just about anything, a little imagination goes a long way. From natural transitions to some things you would never think of, here are some creative uses for artificial grass to think about as the summer draws to a close.
A Natural Look
Bring a warm, outdoorsy look and feel to your home’s exterior by installing artificial grass on your deck or patio. Regardless of whether you have a large patio or just a small space, the look and feel of lush green grass makes it easy to venture out for some fresh air without wearing shoes. The green grass perfectly accents wood and stone surface materials, and even provides a solid base for outdoor furniture like hammocks and chairs. Artificial grass on your deck will also help protect its structural integrity and precent scuffs and scratches that would otherwise occur.
You can even use synthetic turf on your roof! Rooftop gardens and lawns are gaining in popularity, but can be expensive and difficult to water and maintain at that height, and not all roofs are able to support the weight of a traditional lawn. Artificial grass is a must for rooftop patios or gardens.
Indoor Uses
You can even use artificial grass indoors in the Carolinas. While you may be thinking of indoor soccer fields, pet boarding facilities and indoor putting courses, there are actually quite a few unique ways to integrate artificial turf into a building’s interior design. Take weight rooms, for example. Many weightlifters enjoy the benefits of turf from SYNLawn Carolina; it provides cushioning for a variety of exercises, is easy to clean, and it creates a pleasant environment for workouts.
Since it is odorless, well-suited to high-traffic areas and easy to clean, many commercial spaces and offices have started to use synthetic grass instead of carpeting. Combined with a visual appeal that is great for day rooms, children’s bedrooms and more, artificial grass carpeting is becoming more popular for home interiors as well.
Visual Appeal
There are also a variety of arts and crafts projects that can make use of synthetic grass. It’s great for dioramas and product displays. It’s also a great material to use in rugs, doormats, wall art, and even garage floors due to its durability, longevity and resistance to stains. It even comes in a variety of colors, including black, white, red, and blue, allowing it to be used for all sorts of artistic designs. The only limit is imagination!
