Creating Unique Landscape Designs

Landscape design should be unique and reflective of each individual property. The shape of the garden beds, the selection of plants and the layering of the design are all influenced by the the distinctive features of the house and yard. A yard with a steep slope will require the appropriate plantings or hardscape terracing. A modern home with sharp architectural angles lends itself to a modern garden design with sturctural plants and straight lined beds. Everything from the style of the house to the shape of yard and location of the property should be considered when determining the landsape design aesthetic.

A larger home with a long walkway is softened with an expansive side landscape bed. The plantings provide beauty and visual interest as you approach the front of the home.

A cottage style home is perfectly designed with a small front fence and a climbing rose archway that leads to an English garden.

An urban town home may be small on planting space but simple evergreens surrounding the front steps provides privacy and a lovely, simple garden.

Garden spaces are an extension of the home and they should be designed to reflect the notable elements of each property. Creating a landscape plan that incorporates those elements provides personalization and style for a yard that is truly unique.
