In Saudi Arabia, luxury villas and large estates no longer have a boring concrete or block outline. Homeowners and contractors are looking into innovative, long term solutions which are a blend of beauty and performance. Of these, a modern and stylish alternative has come in the form of the gabion rock wall.
Gabion walls are not only functional but also aesthetical because they are made of baskets of galvanized or PVC-coated nets that are filled with stones. They bring about a rough, natural appearance which fits in well both in desert and urban settings. Gabion rock walls are now a favorite with architects and landscapers, whether in the gardens of villas in Riyadh, walls at the boundary of an estate in Jeddah or Dammam.
Why Gabion Rock Walls
Gabion rock walls provide the combination of strength, flexible design and environmental friendliness. Gabions in contrast to conventional walls that need to be plastered and painted or maintained on a regular basis offer durability with long-lasting time and require minimal maintenance.
Key benefits include:
- Luxury Aesthetics - Natural stone walls provide a rustic and elegant appearance, ideal in the high end villas and estates.
- Durability- When installed correctly, gabions have a lifespan of more than 50 years even in the severest Saudi weather.
- Sustainability - They can be stuffed with local rocks or recycled rocks, and hence environmentally friendly.
- Design Versatility - Could be in either curved or straight versions, they may be adapted to the creative landscape requirements.
- Inexpensive in the Long-term- The minimum of maintenance saves on the lifetime expenditure when compared to plastering.
Gabion Rock Wall is used in Villas and Estates
Gabion walls are not restricted to hold soil. They are used in luxury landscapes in a variety of ways:
Perimeter Walls & Boundaries
Offer safe estate boundaries and do not sacrifice beauty. A different appearance is achieved with Gabions as compared to plain concrete walls.
Garden Landscaping
Gabion walls may also be used to form terraced gardens, retaining walls to hold plants, or curved features that provide depth to the landscape of villas.
Outdoor Living Features
Gabion walls may be circular and used as sitting platforms, fireplaces or ponds to integrate nature with the architecture.
Noise Barriers
Natural sound barriers are used to provide privacy and tranquility within estates by thick gabion rock walls.
Slope Stabilization
Gabions can be used in villas constructed on a hilly piece of land to provide structure but also beautify the area.
