LANDSCAPE PLAN
LANDSCAPE PLAN
Today more people want their home landscape to meet physical and social needs. Partly as a result of the environmental movement, which fostered a greater appreciation for nature we tend to be more interested in informal or naturalistic design.
The geometric forms of building and natural landscape characteristic both suggest design patterns. As a result a home landscape that blends geometric and naturalistic pattern is often successful. Today's landscape styles can be divided into categories in which varying proportions of geometric and naturalistic pattern are combined.
As you go through the planning and design steps that follow you should have in mind which of these general design style you want to achieve.
- geometric structural is primary and plants play a minir role.
B. Geometric Natural
- structure dominates important perhaps nearly equal role.
C. Natural Structural
- plants rocks water and earth form dominate but there is a clear sense of geometric arrangement.
D. Natural
- natural elements and materials dominate and there is no obvious determined form or structure.
