A professional landscape design can boost the curb appeal of your home and provide a personal oasis for you to enjoy. However, without the proper planning, you can end up dissatisfied with your landscaping layout. Here are the top things to consider when designing your landscaping, and how you can make the most out of your outdoor project.
What does your yard look like?
While it’s important to plan for features you want in your backyard, you’ll also need to be realistic about your yard. If you’re imagining a sprawling garden, but you only have a small space to work with, it’s unlikely that your design will turn out the way you want. Familiarize yourself with your yard and what you can do with it before settling on a design to set attainable expectations.
What is my overall theme?
Just like an interior design, a landscape design is most successful when it adheres to a single theme or idea. Are you shooting for an organic look, or do you prefer a clean, modern space? Choose an aesthetic or style you wish to emulate, and then apply that sensibility to your entire design scheme.
What maintenance will my design require?
Your landscaping is made up of living, breathing plants and trees that will require a certain level of maintenance. Before setting your heart on a certain plant that may not be able to thrive in the Arizona heat, do a bit of research to see what watering schedule or soil your chosen greenery will need to flourish. If you’re not one for yard work, a local landscaper can take care of your outdoor space.
