Interior and exterior have always existedthe principle of unity and struggle of opposites. Today it became especially noticeable: if in an environment of the house we increasingly prefer natural materials, then the plastic stepped into the open spaces of the gardens. In place of the old good wooden fences came panels of bright perspex, plastic nets for modeling hedges changed the camouflage color to flashy colors, the place of the usual linen tents took awnings from ultra-light aluminum. The garden, where the natural scale reigned supreme, played with all the colors of the neon rainbow.
Landscape design ideas Modern "landscapes" inZen style in its complexity is in no way inferior to real carpets and mosaics. The main principle of this summer's garden decor - contrasting colors and clear geometric shapes - is respected even when creating "wild" landscapes. The choice of available tools is practically unlimited: from traditional planks and rough cobblestones to tiles with an optical pattern and plastic parts. And - as a result - a fantastic garden plus visual proof that wildlife and the gifts of scientific progress can live in peace and harmony.
Inanimate hedge
Dimensions of the garden are of no fundamental importance. This spectacular mini-lawn is the best confirmation of this. The geometric pattern of the tile with the optical knob gives it a new dimension. The fence of bright plexiglass casts colored shadows on the grass and fences off this small masterpiece from the neighboring prosaic parking lot. This and other illustrations are taken from Joan Clifton, Steven Wooster. Courtyard & Terrace Garden. Annes Publishing Ltd., 2002. www.amazon.com, store «England. British books. "
Actually
Those who tend to ignore the dictates of fashion andremains a dedicated supporter of all natural, masters of landscape design offer to create the illusion of an abandoned garden. It does not matter which materials are used; the main thing is to make everything look as natural as possible. No one should guess how much effort you should have to grow the moss between the slabs or turn the garden paths into the dried bed of the creek with coarse cobblestones on the bottom. You can also arrange a kind of beach in the garden, laying a small area with a pattern of colored pebbles, or make a wooden flooring reminiscent of a bridge in a fishing village.
From a new angle
You do not need to have a special artistic talent,to decorate the garden with such mosaic. Just fill in a multicolored mulch lined with a border diamonds and triangles. Green islets of grass will break the strict geometry of this "floor covering", which evokes persistent associations with a picture from a kaleidoscope.
Cherepolositsa
Before you - a modern interpretation of the garden of Zen. Traditional lawn was replaced by an oval platform, lined with strips of multicolored granulated mulch. A curb of yellow flowers is planted along its circumference. Observing this picture, it is easy to feel the spirit of Buddhist tranquility.
