MODERN GARDEN 001

Modern home garden. Geometry and minimalism in a pure form

Good landscaping does not need excess ornamentation. The project “Modern Garden 001” is the quintessence of minimalist style. The main role here is played by proportions and precise line. This realization proves that geometry brings order and tranquility to the space. It provides an ideal background for the modern body of the building. This is a proposal for investors who are looking for harmony and timeless elegance.

Concept and spatial layout. The power of geometry

The basis of the garden’s composition is a clear division of space. We based it on right angles. We designed the layout of paths and terraces so that they naturally direct the eye to the key viewpoints. At the same time, they organize the functional zones.

Viewing axis

Consciously routed lines of lawn and paving lengthen the perspective. Thanks to this procedure, the garden gains depth, and the space appears optically larger.

Functional zoning

Despite the open nature of the garden, we have separated intimate rest zones in it. We used landscaping elements that provide privacy for householders. However, they do not close off the space, which allows us to maintain compositional breath.

Materials and vegetation. Noble contrast

In the project we focused on the play of textures. The cool elegance of architectural concrete dominates here, visible in the paving slabs and elements of small architecture. However, we break it with the warmth of natural wood and juicy greenery.

• Structural greenery: The vegetation here has an architectural function. Formed shrubs, such as boxwoods and yews, create a year-round framework for the entire composition.
• Ornamental grasses: the introduction of grasses (miscanthus, rosemary) adds lightness to the arrangement. Their airy habit provides a dynamic counterbalance to the static concrete.
• Monochromatism: We limited the color palette to green, white and purple. This treatment enhances the impression of elegance and promotes tranquility.

Lighting scenery and details

The design takes into account the complex play of light. After dark, the garden gains a second dimension. We used linear illumination of the edges of the paths and spot illuminations of the trees. They bring the geometry of the establishment out of the darkness. They create a safe and atmospheric space for evening relaxation.
