Balance In Garden Design

If you ve designed your yard with all or most of the planting space on one side of the yard and nothing but lawn on the other then you simply won t be able to bring balance to your landscape composition.

Balance in garden design. Ensuring proper balance in an asymmetrical design means planning your garden spaces in such a way that you can in fact create balanced plantings. It looks awkward and at a fundamental aesthetic level it just doesn t work. Balance is layers of voids and masses light and shade enclosure and exposure colour movement and character as well as many other aspects.

The decision to keep balanced garden design small means that naomi continues to deliver unparalleled personalised service to her clients. Balance in the garden is achieved when the space is harmonious and it makes visitors feel at ease yet has enough interest and provides them with choices. When there is balance the overall picture of the garden when viewed from a particular view point appears to have the same visual weight on the left and right of the view point and so is pleasing to the eye.

This also enables naomi to work directly with a handful of trusted contractors ensuring that exceptional customer experience is achieved in conjunction with exceptional gardens. Investing a lot of money in hard and soft landscaping products and choosing the most beautiful combinations of plants is not enough the overall effect can still fail to work as a whole.
