As outdoor living spaces and trends shift drastically, Unilock Pavers is again at the forefront, championing innovation and sustainability in hardscape design for 2024. With trends ranging from eco-friendly materials to cutting-edge technology, Unilock is redefining how we think about outdoor environments, blending style, functionality, and environmental consciousness.
“2024 is shaping up to be a year of game-changing advancements for outdoor spaces,” says Brad Gesbocker, General Manager at Unilock. “We're seeing a strong movement toward designs that not only look incredible but also serve practical needs, like managing stormwater runoff or reducing energy consumption. Homeowners and designers want more than just beautiful patios—they want pavers that work harder for them, and that’s exactly where Unilock excels.”
With growing environmental awareness, sustainable paving solutions are at the heart of 2024’s most significant trends. Unilock’s permeable pavers have become an increasingly popular choice for homeowners and developers alike. These pavers allow rainwater to filter back into the ground, reducing the strain on local drainage systems and preventing flooding—a crucial factor as more cities adopt stringent environmental regulations.
“Our permeable pavers, which come in a range of styles and finishes, are ideal for eco-conscious projects,” explains Robyn Artem, Senior Marketing Communications Manager. “From large commercial applications to residential driveways, they help manage stormwater naturally while adding to the overall aesthetic of a property. It’s sustainability without compromise.”
In addition to permeable options, Unilock is also expanding its line of recycled and reclaimed materials. More pavers are now crafted from recycled stone and concrete, providing a rustic, natural look while significantly reducing environmental impact. With climate change concerns growing, the demand for these sustainable alternatives has skyrocketed in both residential and commercial markets.
Hardscaping isn’t just about aesthetics anymore—it’s about making outdoor spaces smarter. Unilock is leading this charge with smart paver technology, incorporating features like integrated LED lighting and remote-controlled heating systems. These advancements are not only functional, enhancing safety and convenience, but they also elevate the entire outdoor experience.
“Imagine a patio that lights up automatically when the sun goes down or heating elements that keep your outdoor space usable in the cooler months,” says Brent Turner, Director of IT at Unilock. “We’re bringing the smart home revolution outdoors, giving homeowners the ability to transform their spaces with the push of a button.”
The shift toward smart pavers reflects a broader trend in the market: the desire for multi-functional outdoor areas that offer year-round comfort and versatility. It’s not just about looks—it’s about making spaces that adapt to the way we live today.
As homeowners embrace outdoor living, 2024 is seeing a bold shift toward personalization and unique design. Gone are the days of plain, uniform pavers. Today’s designs feature bold colors and geometric patterns, from deep blues and reds to intricate herringbone and checkerboard layouts. Unilock is capitalizing on this trend with a broad palette of colors and customizable patterns that can turn any patio, driveway, or walkway into a statement piece.
“One of the most exciting things we’re seeing is the use of large-format pavers,” says Brad Gesbocker. “These oversized pavers create a clean, modern look and are perfect for expansive patios or pool decks. They offer fewer joints and a seamless finish that really elevates the space.”
Complementing this trend are textured surfaces—from the rugged appeal of natural stone to wood-look pavers that bring warmth and texture to outdoor environments. These tactile surfaces not only enhance the visual appeal of outdoor spaces but also improve slip resistance, making them an excellent choice for pool decks or walkways.
Customization is key in 2024, and one of the standout trends is the mixing of materials. Homeowners can create unique designs that reflect their personal style by combining natural stone, brick, and concrete pavers. This trend allows for creativity and flexibility, as mixing different textures and finishes results in visually stunning outdoor environments that blend seamlessly with their surroundings.
“People want outdoor spaces that feel just as personalized as their interiors,” Robyn Artem adds. “The ability to mix and match different materials, like pairing rustic stone with sleek, modern concrete pavers, gives homeowners a way to express their creativity while ensuring their space is functional and durable.”
As Unilock looks ahead to 2024 and beyond, its focus on sustainability, smart integration, and customization will continue to shape the hardscaping industry. The company’s commitment to innovation ensures that outdoor spaces are not just beautiful but also environmentally responsible and equipped for modern living.
“Outdoor spaces are more than just an extension of the home—they are places to gather, entertain, and relax,” concludes Brad Gesbocker. “At Unilock, we’re not just following trends; we’re setting them, providing our customers with paving solutions that look amazing, last longer, and work harder.”
