Landscape Design

The design of a long-distance site is a whole science that evolves with every year. Besides, it's also art: we're not just planning on science, but we're making a beautiful and cozy suburban nest, where it's pleasant to hide from the city's wind and to work with our hands. The desire to override a newly acquired piece of land is understandable, but don't rush to hand over a shovel and move towards improvement. In order to begin, serious preparations should be made, considering all the details of the planning from A to I.

How do we start planning the day-to-day precinct?

Let us do everything by the rules and start planning with a phased analysis of the territory. And it's only after that that you can start drafting a plot and finally give the simplicity of your fantasy: here you'll build a home and there's a bath. A little far away, in the shadows of fruit trees, there'll be a nice chat, and there, on the sun, there will be beautiful flowers on the clumbs. But that's all, then, and now I'm gonna tell you what factors need to be taken into account before we start designing.

Estimates of the suburban area

Relef. The location of suburban structures, the breakdown of gardens, gardens, the design of the alpine mountain, rubber, water bodies and other landscape attributes depends directly on the terrain. You're not going to build a house on a cool slice, for example? That's why you're gonna have to put his real features on the plot.

Form. Areas may be of a different shape: standard geometric, rounded, extended, in the letters " P " , " G " , etc. Take into account the form so that no part of the territory can later be turned into a clear desert.

Chest. You'll have to investigate the soil type and check its acidity. These critical factors will depend on the kind of plants you will plant. It may be necessary to cultivate the land: to bring black land, peat or natural soil, to plant fertilizers where planting is planned, to perform other work. A special soil map, which is available in each area (sufficiently referred to the district administration), or an analysis by an independent, experienced route, can be used for soil analysis. It really requires certain knowledge and skills. For example, soil acidity is checked with special lacmus paper (produced at the store with application instructions).

groundwater level. Only by defining the level of groundwater recharge can it be concluded that a drain is needed at the site. This information is available in the Architecture and Urban Divisions of your city (area) and is available upon request. The groundwater level can be determined on its own. For this, in the middle of the summer, when there is no rain, a few boreholes will be drilled in the precinct. Check the well water in a week. If the water is less than 1-1.5 m from the soil level, the site needs a drainage system.

Winds. Many garden cultures are poorly transporting wind weather, so specify in advance the local meteo service which winds and the forces that prevail in your area. Based on these data, plan for the breakdown of the garden by considering the protection of the plants (if you get a wind section). Maybe you're lucky, your precinct doesn't threaten the angry northern winds, but it's necessary to know.

Light. Determine the location of the section on the side of the light. The degree of lighting will depend on the location of the structures, the breakdown of colours, gardens, gardens and the selection of suitable plants.
