PRINCIPLES OF GARDEN DESIGN
2
GARDEN DESIGN

• The art and practice of planning and making plans
  for the layout and planting of gardens and
  landscapes is known as garden design.
• The arrangement of hard landscape, such as
  walkways, walls, water features, sitting spaces,
  and decking, as well as the plants themselves,
  are all important aspects of garden design.
• Our team of talented designers puts their
  creative talents to work and adds the finishing
  touches to the atmosphere.

ELEMENTS

• Whether created by a professional or an amateur,
  good garden design is based on specific
  principles, resulting in gardens that satisfy the
  objectives, aims, and aspirations of the users or
  owners of the gardens.
• The layout of hardscape, such as paths, walls,
  water features, sitting areas, and decking, as
  well as the softscape, or plants themselves, with
  consideration for their horticultural
  requirements, season-to-season appearance,
  lifespan, growth habit, size, speed of growth,
  and combinations with other plants and landscape
  features, are all elements of garden design.
• How the garden will be utilized, the intended
  aesthetic genre (formal or casual, modern or
  traditional, etc. ), and how the garden space
  will link to the home or other structures in the
  surrounding regions are all important factors to
  consider when designing a garden. All of these
  issues are constrained by the budgetary
  constraints.

LOCATION

• The location of a garden may have a significant
  impact on its design. Topographical landscape
  characteristics like steep slopes, views, hills,
  and outcrops can propose or decide design
  elements like layout, and they can be exploited
  and supplemented to produce a certain impression.
• The site's soils, as well as the garden's
  climatic zone and numerous microclimates, will
  influence the sorts of plants that may be
  cultivated. The garden's locational environment
  might also have an impact on its design. In
  contrast to a rural environment, an urban
  situation may need a distinct design approach.
• A windy seaside area, for example, may need a
  different approach than a protected interior
  position.

SOIL

• The soil quality of a garden may have a major
  impact on the design and subsequent success of
  the garden. Soil affects the availability of
  water and nutrients, the activity of soil
  microorganisms, and the temperature inside the
  root zone, and so can impact the types of plants
  that will thrive in the garden.
• Soils, on the other hand, may be replaced or
  modified in order to make them more appropriate.
• The site's soils, as well as the garden's
  climatic zone and numerous microclimates, will
  influence the sorts of plants that may be
  cultivated. The garden's locational environment
  might also have an impact on its design. In
  contrast to a rural environment, an urban
  situation may need a distinct design approach.
• A windy seaside area, for example, may need a
  different approach than a protected interior
  position. However, while many plants enjoy poor
  soil, not all gardens are or should be modified
  in this way. In this scenario, a poor soil that
  has been artificially enriched is preferable to a
  rich soil that has been artificially enriched.

GARDEN FURNITURE

• From a patio set with a table, four or six seats,
  and a parasol to benches, swings, different
  lighting, and magnificent antiques in harsh
  concrete or aged oak, garden furniture may be
  anything.
• Patio heaters, which operate on bottled butane or
  propane, are frequently used to allow people to
  sit outside at night or in the winter. A picnic
  table is a table that is used to have a meal
  outside, such as in a garden. Stones, metals,
  vinyl, polymers, resins, glass, and treated woods
  are among the materials used to make modern patio
  furniture.

LIGHTING

• Garden lighting is an essential consideration
  when planning a garden. In most situations,
  heights may be used to classify and identify
  several sorts of lighting techniques safety
  lighting, up lighting, and downlighting.
• The most practical application is safety lights.
  However, determining the kind of lights and
  fixtures required to achieve the desired effects
  is more essential.
• Photosynthesis, phototropism, and photoperiodism
  are three key plant activities that are regulated
  by light.
• Photosynthesis generates the energy necessary for
  plants to manufacture their energy source. The
  impact of light on plant development that leads
  the plant to grow toward or away from the light
  is known as phototropism.
• A plant's reaction or capacity to respond to
  photoperiod, a recurrent cycle of light and dark
  intervals of consistent length, is known as
  photoperiodism.

8
SURFACES

• A smooth stretch of lawn is generally considered
  necessary to a garden in temperate western
  settings. Other surfaces, such as those composed
  of loose gravel, tiny pebbles, or wood chips, may
  be used by landscape designers to give a
  different look and feel.
• Designers may also employ the texture and colour
  contrast between different surfaces to create a
  design pattern. Path and access point surfaces
  are chosen for both functional and aesthetic
  purposes. The designer may need to think about
  things like safety, upkeep, and durability.

SUNLIGHT

• While the gardener may not always be able to
  regulate sunlight, it is a crucial aspect of
  garden design. The quantity of light available
  has an important role in deciding which plants
  may be cultivated. As a result, sunlight will
  have a significant impact on the garden's
  appearance.
• A rose garden, for example, will not grow in
  complete shadow, while a host garden will not
  flourish in full sun.
• A vegetable garden, for example, may require
  placement in a sunny position, and if that
  location does not meet the overall garden design
  goals, the designer may need to alter other parts
  of the garden.
• The amount of accessible sunlight can be
  controlled by the gardener in some circumstances.
  The placement of trees, other shade plants,
  garden structures, or even buildings, when
  planning a whole property, may be chosen or
  altered based on their impact on the quantity of
  sunshine supplied to various sections of the
  property.
• In other situations, the gardener has no control
  over the amount of sunshine. The amount of
  sunshine accessible may be limited by nearby
  structures, vegetation on neighbouring
  properties, or simply the climate of the region.
  Alternatively, the gardener may not be able to
  make significant modifications to the garden's
  lighting circumstances.
• In this case, it is important to plan a garden
  that is compatible with the existing light
  conditions.
