Your Classic Garden
Most likely, no one will immediately answer the question what garden style he prefers. But this is not necessary. When creating a landscape design, it is important for the designer to feel the mood, to create the image of the future garden and understand what the person prefers.

We will be happy to create a beautiful and practical design for you based on your personal needs and lifestyle. We can provide traditional or contemporary design styles, so you can get a garden that perfectly fits your personal taste along with matching the property and location.

Designs4Gardens strives to relate a garden not only to its surrounding landscape but also to the architecture of the property.
How to choose the style for your garden
Among many options, a landscape designer should choose the style that best reflects the worldview of the owner of the garden. It is necessary to take into account the terrain and climatic features of the territory. Each style of landscape design has its own requirements for the forms of paths, flower beds, the type of plants, the shape of the pond, the materials and accessories used.
But despite this, the owner of the house should still know the characteristic of the landscape style so that he could tell about his preferences.
Classic style
Perhaps the most famous is the regular (it also has the name formal, French, classical) style. World-famous and well-preserved parks in France are an excellent example of the use of regular style. The classical or regular style of the garden assumes a geometrically correct layout with pronounced symmetry and regularity of landscape composition.
Basic elements of the classical garden
• Direct alleys, which are the axes of symmetry;
• Clear geometric shapes of flower beds, lawns, paving paths, ponds;
• Fountains located in the centre of the site or in the centre of the composition created on the site;
• Topiary plants (You can plant linden, globular thuja, pyramidal poplar, maple, pyramidal juniper, as well as maiden grapes, lilacs, spirea, jasmine.) As for the flowers, roses, begonias, phloxes and salvia are suitable);
• A natural stone;
• Open spaces;
• The classical form of garden arbours (round), placed at the intersection of tracks;
• Parterre zone;
• Suitable for large areas (with an area of more than 15 acres).

Colour palette of the classical garden
Colours of classic regular style: white, beige, sand-colour, blue, light terracotta.
Regular garden accessories:

It is not enough just to draw a promising image of the future landscape, to design a garden. The design process is a thorough analysis and the creation on the basis of its results of a realistic vision of the project for the client. And this is possible only with close cooperation between the designer and the customer.
