The side yard leads guests to the back pool area. Natural stone pavers make it an easy walk. Shade plants make a beautiful walk. The beautiful traditional architecture of this home demanded a lush English style garden design. The deep landscape beds accommodate an abundance of color and foliage interested throughout the year. The clean, contemporary pool design complements the more traditional architecture and landscape design. Put it all together and you have a beautiful and lush retreat for relaxing and entertaining in style.

Ландшафтный дизайн в регулярном стиле Салманово Поле, Одинцово
Ландшафтная мастерская Алены АрсеньевойЛандшафтная мастерская Алены Арсеньевой
Объект находится в поселке Салманово поле, недалеко от города Одинцово, размер средний, всего двадцать три сотки. Семья очень динамичная, современная, легкая на подъем. Когда работа начиналась, это была дача, куда приезжали только на выходные. В настоящее время здесь живут постоянно. Состав семьи – папа, мама, взрослая шестнадцатилетняя дочь и сын, которому тогда было всего шесть. Из пожеланий Собственника – декоративный ручей, открытая солнечная лужайка, много цветников и возможность гулять вдвоем. Помимо этого надо было расположить детскую площадку, и она есть во всех эскизах – позже от этой идеи отказались. На конкурс было приглашено пять ландшафтных компаний, было приятно, что к рассмотрению были выбраны наброски, предложенные мастерской Алены Арсеньевой. На участке есть жилая постройка, бассейн с фитнес центром и гараж. Заезд в гараж - внутри двора, поэтому парковка из бетонной плитки рядом с основным зданием, у входа – значительная, так как машина должна развернуться. Далее широкий свободный проход к фитнесу ведет в приватную часть дачи. Посередине у авто парковки и СПА – место для партера на фоне пузыреплодника Дьябло и Лютеус. Чтобы избежать эффекта «забора у забора» - мы развили тему живой изгороди – перед пузыреплодником – стройные силуэты туи Смарагд, а в промежутках – барбарис Тунберга Атропурпурея. А дополнительный «слой» кустарников – спирея японская Голден Принцесс – высажена впереди Смарагдов. В результате получилась объемная, а не плоская ограждающая посадка из кустарников с яркой листвой. Две клумбы, оформленные в полукруг, высаживаются из летников каждый год. Шаровидные туи завершают образ этой части, подчеркивая геометричность объема. У въезда, близко к основному дому - смешанная живая изгородь из туи западной Спиралис и дерена белого Элегантисимма. Регулярный стиль в дизайне сада реализован при входе. Здесь, на фоне вертикальной плоскости, образовавшейся из темной зелени туи Спиралис и дерена белого Элегантиссима, встали стройные силуэты хвойных и круглые формы сосны горной Хампи, дополненные мягкими фонтанами лиственницы японской Пендула.

This lake home nestles into the water in the charming, historical community of Lake of the Forest near Bonner Springs, Kansas. The homeowners have done a phenominal job keeping the craftman style of the house. Our challenge was to solve some drainage issues, provide some color and interest, and include plants that can tollerate severe lakeside heat and winds. We then finished the project off with a charming cobblestone edge that accents the craftsman style perfectly.

Side Formal Garden Ideas and Designs

A beautifully designed 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 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 front garden design.

How should I design my 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 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.
