A rooftop garden designed for the 2012 RHS Chelsea Flower Show. Pleached trees ‘edge’ and frame the view whilst a modern awning covers the main workspace. Contemporary furniture and sculpture are merged with box hedging and living walls to ensure a relaxing environment. A large multi-stem tree in a huge contemporary planter creates a central focus.

Сад «Пять уровней комфорта» - победитель премии «Лучшее для жизни» в области архитектуры, строительства и дизайна в категории Ландшафтная архитектура в 2016 году и обладатель бронзового диплома VII Национальной российской премии по ландшафтной архитектуре в категории лучший реализованный сад. Вилла в стиле Райта возвышалась над крутым оврагом на лесном участке с вековыми лиственными деревьями. Уникальность нашей концепции сада продиктована сложными природными условиями и умением использовать все индивидуальные особенности местности, создавая органичный ансамбль архитектуры и ландшафта, словно рожденный исключительно для этого конкретного места. Не случайно автор дома, именитый архитектор Нина Прудникова, обладающая безупречным вкусом, приглашает нас для работы над садами. Начальный перепад рельефа в 7 м мы восприняли как возможность воплощения сценария перетекания пространства сада на разные уровни, визуального разделения тематических зон и приватных частей на созданных террасах. При этом самую нижнюю и удаленную от глаз точку участка мы удачно отвели для спортивной площадки, засыпав овраг на 2,5 метра. Задавая новые очертания холмам, мы бережно отнеслись к наличию высоких деревьев, создающих благоприятный микроклимат, чувство защищенности. Идея свободной планировки и безграничности, так близкой этому стилю нашла у нас отражение в создании больших террас- площадок, частично обрамленных растениями с высокоподнятыми кронами, позволяющими создавать ажурные кулисы-ширмы, не перекрывая широких видов на перспективу участка. Ни что не препятствует удобному перемещению по участку по широким лестницам и природным площадкам-ступеням, живописно встроенным в склоны рельефа. Каждая терраса-площадка оставляет хозяевам свободу размещения садовой мебели, арт-объектов, переносного очага. Архитектуру дома, вдохновленную принципами Фрэнка Ллойда Райта, с горизонтальной протяженностью крыш и панорамного остекления, перетеканием объемов мы поддержали распростертой геометрией поверхностей стриженных кустарников, разновысотных бордюров, плоско формованных массивов, словно «стекающих» с холмов зарослей можжевельников и многолетников. В качестве акцентов- раскидистый орех, душистые сирени, великолепная ирга, обладающая изысканным ветвлением кроны. Целостность архитектуры и ландшафта достигается использованием лаконичного ассортимента и нейтральной цветовой гаммы. Белый цвет, столь необходимый в тенистых садах, привносит торжественность и светлое сияние в каждую зону, будь то яркая кайма хосты, цветы лесной земляники и фиалки, пышные соцветия гортензий, душистые кисти сирени или белая пена на кронах ирги и спиреи серой. Осенний сад щедро переливается всеми оттенками меди и пурпура, отражаясь на гортензиях легких румянцем. Желание чувства защищенности и приватности обитателей участка для нас всегда на первом месте, поэтому самые крупные хвойные мы посадили продуманно, закрывая с важных ракурсов нежелательные виды на соседние дома. Подлинная природная гармония созданного пространства, естественная привлекательность и практичность дарит его обитателям чувство желанного комфорта, душевного мира и равновесия.

Rock garden above pool area gives change throughout the seasons with the changing weather. Gravel keeps weeds down and reflects light, easy to clean leaf drop with a blower. Local fieldstone boulders combine well with drought tolerant plants here.

Modern Garden with a Living Wall Ideas and Designs

A beautifully designed modern garden is as important as the emphasis we place on the designs of our interiors. After all, our grounds (however modest) frame our homes and contribute to first impressions not only of our houses, but also of the households within. Options for garden designs can be as elaborate or low maintenance as your lifestyle and preferences permit – consider both your aspirations for how it should look and how much time you can invest in garden maintenance. Consulting a gardener or landscape designer will ensure you have a garden that suits your lifestyle, the local climate and soil conditions. But don’t forget that with Houzz your first stop can be collecting images of garden ideas and designs you love in order to inspire your garden plans and potentially share them with a landscape gardening professional.

How do I come up with a modern front garden design?

The priority for a front garden is kerb appeal. Begin by considering the area immediately around and leading up to your front door. You may want to opt for front garden designs that blend well with the style of your home – for example, abundant foliage and flowerbeds will perfectly complement a period property, whereas man-made materials, geometric shapes and contrasting textures are great ideas for a contemporary garden design. Even if your front garden is a small space, keep it tidy – if you have more space, make the most of it with garden ideas and features such as a manicured lawn, gravel driveway, water feature or garden fencing. If you don’t have the time or commitment to devote to gardening, then neatly pruned hedges, statement paving, hanging baskets, garden benches and outdoor lighting are all decorative, low maintenance garden ideas for your modern front garden design.

How should I design my modern back garden?

Back gardens typically offer more space than front garden designs and serve a more recreational purpose, so it’s important to know how you want to spend time in your garden before you design it in order to build in the features that you will enjoy. If you love relaxing in the garden and dining al fresco, think about patios, decking, garden furniture and BBQs. For the more horticulturally-inclined, incorporate flower beds, greenhouses or vegetable garden designs. Your landscape gardening professional can help you install structures such as sheds, pergolas and gazebos that complement your garden design, and artfully-placed garden ideas such as lawn edging and lighting will add definition to your chosen design.

How do I create a low maintenance garden?

The great news is, gardens aren’t exclusively for the green-fingered. Whether you’re not horticulturally-inclined or simply don’t have the time for a bit of landscape gardening, you can still have a modern garden design that looks the way you want by making some smart design choices. While many of us favour low maintenance gardens like urban gardens, roof terraces and patio gardens, lovers of greenery don’t need to sacrifice grass for paving slabs. Whatever you want from your garden, there are a variety of gardening solutions that can be built in to make life easier. For example, labour intensive features such as vegetable patches, greenhouses and flower beds can be optimised with an automatic irrigation system. These can be offset with fuss-free garden ideas such as hard landscaping, including gravel, paving or decking, and hard-wearing evergreens that require minimal upkeep. You might even consider replacing your garden fencing with slow growing hedging, which can be maintained less regularly than wooden fence panels. If having a lawn is important, there are different types of grasses in varying degrees of durability and maintenance. You may choose to take a more relaxed approach to your lawn – “wild” garden designs can have great charm if the grasses and flowers are chosen carefully. If you prefer a manicured lawn, it’s a good idea to invest in a “mulching” lawn mower that will recycle clippings and remove the need for cleaning up. Finally, there isn’t a more low maintenance garden lawn than artificial grass which can look highly realistic and keep your garden looking green. Garden ornaments are a great way to add interest to your low maintenance garden design – go for smart garden ideas such as solar garden lights which are both decorative and functional.
