Fall Projects for Commercial Properties
As the weather starts to cool down, and the summer slowly fades into fall, it’s time to transition into the second half of the year. This means we’re switching gears and beginning to think about projects that are suitable for autumn.
For commercial properties, this is a great time to prepare for the colder seasons ahead. Below are 3 fall projects that will complement your commercial landscaping:
1. Spruce up your entrances
A customer’s first impression of your company begins before they do business with you. Oftentimes, first impressions start when customers walk onto your property. This means that it’s crucial to impress people with an attractive entrance that invites them into your establishment. We recommend installing plantings that reflect autumn-inspired colors or building a seasonal display that serves as an eye-catching focal point for your property. Changing your aesthetic to match the season keeps your property looking fresh and relevant.
2. Install lighting solutions
As the fall approaches, those late summer sunsets start to disappear, and soon enough, we’re back to early dark nights. Autumn is the perfect time to install lighting solutions to help keep your customers safe as they are navigating walkways when the sunlight fades. Lighting solutions can also draw attention to certain areas of your landscape that you want to showcase, such as your company’s entrance, garden beds, and important signage.
3. Warm up with a fire pit
A fire pit is a great idea for commercial properties where groups of people come to gather such as community centers and restaurants. Keeping warm by a fire during the evening hours is a wonderful way to encourage people to stay outside, enjoy the outdoor landscapes you’ve invested in, and create a sense of community for your establishment.
