Garden Design
When visiting gardens we admire, we usually draw inspiration from it. But what is it about these gardens that grabs our attention? Is it the style of the garden, it’s function, or layout, the colors perhaps, are the plants having an impact to this, or how the paths, patios, walls and plants blend in together? For me it always raises the question, “how did they do that?”. In this section we take a deep dive in the Garden Design to enable you the best advice and guidance on your design your private sanctuary before you put the first spade in in the ground.
The great challenge for a garden designer is not to make the garden look natural, but to make the garden so that people in it feel natural. (Lawrence Halprin)
Mission to become a Garden Designer
Garden design is a meticulous and creative process that involves planning and organizing outdoor spaces to achieve aesthetic appeal, functionality, and harmony with the surrounding environment. Several key elements contribute to successful garden design.
Firstly, understanding the site conditions, including soil quality, sunlight exposure, and climate, is essential for selecting suitable plants and determining layout. The choice of plants, their placement, and the overall color scheme play a pivotal role in creating a visually appealing garden.
Additionally, incorporating hardscape elements such as pathways, patios, and focal points adds structure and functionality to the space. Striking a balance between softscape (plants) and hardscape elements ensures a harmonious and inviting atmosphere.
Practical considerations like irrigation, maintenance, and sustainability practices further contribute to a well-designed garden that not only pleases the eye but also stands the test of time.
