Whether it is for a change of season, because you have moved into a new home, or just because you fancy a change, designing the layout and look of a garden can be surprisingly tough to get right. Gardens, for how enjoyable and beautiful they can be, are difficult spaces to work with on paper and in the imagination. Rarely do they turn out exactly the way you would hope, and you will often find that you have to make many changes along the way, right up to the completion of the project. But even then you might have trouble knowing whether you have actually designed your garden well, with nothing missing. Let’s look at what the complete garden design should incorporate.

Areas For Different Uses

In almost all kinds of garden design, you can expect to end up with different areas for different uses. When you are looking through your own plans for design, you might want to see whether you have allowed enough space to the different areas for their intended use, and whether you need to change them around at all. You might have one area for a patio, and another for a veg patch, and so on, and it is necessary to make sure that they each are suitable to their needs.

Safety Of The Whole

The whole space needs to fall in line with one characteristic in particular if it is to succeed – safety. You might not always remember to consider safety when you are designing your garden, but it is essential if you want to make sure that every element of your garden design is just right. With the right kind of focus on safety, you will feel much better and more secure about the project as a whole. This could mean having to incorporate concrete gravel boards and gates into the plan, or it might even have an impact on the layout of the garden itself too. Either way, you need to make sure you have considered this side of the deal long and hard.

Rotation Plan

If you are going to be planting anything that is to be harvested, then you will need to make sure that you have a proper rotation plan. This means that you will have one type of edible in one patch, another in another section, and so on – but that you are also able to switch them around next year. This makes a huge difference on the whole, as it allows you to keep the soil throughout the garden well fertilized, and that will mean a more luscious and healthier garden in the long run. You will find that it really pays off to think this far ahead, so remember that when you are planning to plant some fruit and veg in your new garden.

With the above elements included in your design, you can be sure that you are on the right lines towards a garden you will love.
