The Classic and English Style

No matter how many new trends come up, there will always be styles that never go out of fashion. In fact, those styles are trendsetters. Such styles include the English style landscaping. A well-groomed and precisely thought out style with lightly sloppy edges.

Another trendsetter is the classical style that follows a flawless geometry of paths and flowerbeds as well as mirror symmetry.

The Minimalist Style

In today’s busy life, people prefer maximum comfort with aesthetics while spending a minimum amount. To achieve such a look for your garden, you might want to go for a minimalist style. It’s simple, calm, and fulfills the purpose of functionality within an affordable range.

Minimalism blends exceptionally with modern architecture. It mainly focuses on fusing living spaces with green areas. Nowadays we also have summer kitchens, patios as well as living spaces outdoors. You can also add gazebos, barbecue areas made with simple geometric shapes and interesting functional features.

The Japanese Style

The culture of the east has always been very interesting to Europeans because of its relation and harmony with nature. This is something the urban society lacks nowadays. Even though Japanese architecture has a little in common with European architecture, the Japanese style landscape has taken its form in separate corners in the gardens of Europeans. With each of its key elements; stone, plant, and water representing a certain element and composition, while also being attached to an inner meaning and symbolism. A work of art.

Gravel dumps and rockeries are some of the elements of the modern world that have arrived from the Japanese style landscaping. Another element to implement into your Japanese style garden is an artificial pond. It can be a small pond with a fountain, keeping the water flowing.

It is certainly hard to keep with the everyday trends and changing styles. But, if your site is originally designed in a particular style with harmonious elements, it will give you a clear direction on how to work on your garden. We hope we inspired you to create a wonder out of your rich garden.
