Questions? We have Answers.
Landscape design is often broken down into two parts, hardscape (non living elements, like pavers) and softscape (living elements, like flowers). It involves arranging both hardscape and softscape elements into an area that’s both beautiful and practical.
Good landscape design can be subjective, but there are few elements that make a good landscape design stand out. A good design usually includes both hardscape and softscape features and follows basic design principles like proportional, order repetition and unity.
