If you’re planning a new landscape, here are 5 things to keep in mind before you start:
1. How you’ll use the space�Think beyond how it looks. Do you want an entertaining area, space for the kids, a pool, a garden, or somewhere to unwind? Your lifestyle should shape the design.
2. Sun & shade �Understanding where the sun moves throughout the day can make a huge difference to the comfort and usability of your outdoor spaces and to which plants will thrive.
3. Flow & functionality�Consider how you’ll move between your home, entertaining areas, garden, pool and other zones. A well designed landscape should feel natural and effortless to navigate.
4. Plant selection �Choose plants that suit your climate, soil, available light and the level of maintenance you’re realistically prepared for. The right planting scheme will continue to look beautiful as it matures.
5. The bigger picture�Think about how your landscape will look not just when it’s newly finished, but in 5, 10 or even 20 years. Materials, planting, drainage and construction should all work together for a timeless result.
