Any ideas to design u'r garden?


Tropical Garden


Contemporary Garden


Functional Design


Some tips:
  1. Don't concentrate solely only flower plants. Vegetable plants normally used in cooking such as Lemon Grass, Coriander, Chili, and Tomato can spice up the environment. Interestingly, you can plant them in vase or planters and arrange in a corner.
  2. Other limited spaces are the internal and external courtyard with a balcony. The main objective for this landscape is to maximize every inch of the space. However, before starting to make the landscape, consider how you want each of the space function, lighting and the facade outlook. The landscape must not make the space narrower, not blocking any sunlight and not obstructing the front view.
  3. Landscape design is not only for outdoors. A good garden design must have a relationship between inside and outside of a house then an optimal landscape design can be established and the combination of building elements and natural elements are achieved. Ensure the plants near the window are not too high that maintain the penetration of the sunlight and good air circulation. In fact, the usage of fragrance and short plant is encouraged.
  4. Selection of suitable landscape elements is very important as to avoid the garden looking unorganized and unmanageable. Actually house with limited garden space has an advantage in term of maintenance and chance to make the design more detail and effective. For hardscape, elements such as shades, water, pathway and lighting should be considered.
