A Softer Edge

In garden design, the softer shaping of the planting areas can be an underappreciated detail. Straighter lines and simpler shapes are often favored due to their ease to design. However, the symmetry these beds provide can sometimes leave the space feeling flat, lacking a more lush and natural vibe.

By opting for a winding walkway, a uniquely shaped garden bed or curved edge, you visually soften the space. This alternative to the formal design style is much more relaxed and spontaneous.

Uniquely shaped garden spaces also allow for broader design creativity. Drifts can be intermingled and areas can be planted and defined by the turns and curves. By softening the edges, the garden space gains a subtle yet distinctive beauty.
