🌿From Turf to Pavers: How to Create Two Functional Outdoor Spaces Side by Side

Your backyard should be more than just a pretty view — it should be a functional, enjoyable space that reflects how you live. One of the hottest landscape design trends for 2025 is the seamless transition from turf to pavers, giving homeowners the best of both worlds: a lush green area for play or relaxation, and a durable paver surface for dining, entertaining, or gathering.

At IGL Pavers, we specialize in blending softscapes and hardscapes to create flow, purpose, and beauty in every project.

🌿 Why Combine Turf and Pavers?

The perfect outdoor space balances comfort and function. Artificial or natural turf offers a green, low-maintenance surface, while pavers bring structure and usability. Together, they define separate zones — yet visually tie your space together.

Whether you’re working with a coastal property, hillside yard, or compact backyard, a turf-to-paver design helps you maximize every square foot without compromising aesthetics.

🧱 1. Define Your Functional Zones

Start by imagining how you’ll use your space.

  • Turf areas are perfect for kids, pets, or a morning yoga flow.

  • Paver patios create a durable foundation for outdoor furniture, BBQs, or fire pits.

By clearly defining each zone, you create an intentional design that looks polished and feels natural.

☀️ 2. Enhance Flow and Visual Balance

A good landscape doesn’t just look good — it feels right. Transitioning from turf to pavers using curves, borders, or decorative inlays enhances flow and makes your yard feel cohesive. Add lighting, plants, or a retaining wall to bring extra texture and depth.

💧 3. Improve Drainage and Sustainability

Pavers — especially permeable pavers — improve drainage, prevent water pooling, and reduce runoff. Pairing turf with pavers gives your outdoor space a sustainable foundation that looks great year-round.

🌸 4. Boost Curb Appeal and Property Value

Homeowners are increasingly investing in functional outdoor living spaces, and the turf-to-paver trend is one of the best ways to add curb appeal and ROI. It gives your home a clean, modern look while offering flexibility for entertaining, relaxing, or working outdoors.

🛠️ 5. Expert Installation Matters

From grading and base prep to precision cuts and clean transitions, every detail matters. Poor installation can lead to uneven surfaces or drainage issues — that’s why trusting an experienced team like IGL Pavers ensures a flawless, long-lasting finish.
