Unique Properties: Materials for surfaces and elements of small architecture have been carefully selected, and above all plant species whose flowers and foliage set the tone for the garden style. Transparency reigns in it. The green lawn creates the perfect background for simple plantings that are suitable for shaded areas. Its lines harmonize with the geometry of the lawn. The garden looks attractive not only in the rays of spring sun. After dusk, soft lighting brings out the color and beauty of plants, shapes of small architecture elements, introducing an aura of mystery. The light gently envelops the decarative grasses. In full bloom in summer, the garden is relaxing. Despite its minimalism and simplicity, it favors social meetings and joint feasts.
Dimensions & Packaging: Plot length 53 m, width 55 m on average. The area around 2915 m2.
Tags: city garden, home garden, modern garden,
Production Technology: The water wall creates an obstruction from neighbors. The sound of water accompanies those relaxing on the terrace. The fountain is built so that the water circuit is closed. The water tank is placed very deep, so you do not need filters because it is cool there.
Design Challenge: During the design process, we had to create a modern garden that would fit into the interior of the building so that it would be functional. The rest area on the terrace creates an intimate atmosphere. The garden was established on sandy ground. We had to enrich the soil and use clay soil under the lawn to keep water. The garden is dominated by simple solutions and forms as well as minimalism in the choice of color. The choice of such a style was also suggested by the functionality and ease of keeping the garden clean.
Research: Before starting the project, we inventoried the plot with vegetation to be able to use it in the new project. We have made accurate measurements and soil analyzes.
Inspiration: Modern gardens were the inspiration. The garden, planned in relation to the shape and interior of the building, was designed as a series of separate spaces with carefully selected proportions.
Project Duration: Project completed in 2017. The construction of the garden began in February 2017 and was completed in November 2018.
Operation Flow: The garden is grassy and minimalist. In the evening, thanks to the designed lighting and numerous floodlights, a warm atmosphere was created. All garden elements (lighting, fountain and gazebo sounds) are supported by smart home technology. They are controlled by the owners' phone. The garden changes in the evening thanks to the designed lighting under the paths and numerous floodlights. Plants attract butterflies and other insects. The garden changes all year round. Strongly architectural plants have been designed here.
