The 5 Basic Elements Of Landscape Design
Color
Landscape color themes shape our perspective and give life to our yard. Warm tones will make objects seem closer while cool tones will make them feel farther away. At Lawn Creation Landscapes we believe in the use of color theory to determine which color schemes best fit you and how colors should be arranged.
Texture
This design element refers to fine qualities of surfaces whether plant foliage, flowers, bark, and branching patterns, or facades, patios, and walkways. Coarse textures tend to dominate color and form therefore they are used to attract the eye, while fine textures are used to unify designs. At Lawn Creation Landscapes we create coarse textures that help us build interest while fine textures help us exaggerate space, creating the sensation of more open space.
Form
This design element directs to the three-dimensional distance that a shape settles. Structures, plants, and gardens all represent formal and informal forms such as circles, squares, or organic edges, but so do the gaps between them. That’s why the form is the most significant element when determining the spatial and overall style.
Line
This design element makes forms, shows dominance, and controls the movement of the eye and body. At Lawn Creation Landscapes we use lines to create an infinite variety of shapes and patterns and perceived depth and distance to create spaces with cohesive themes. We create lines on edges between materials, silhouettes of forms, or linear features.
Visual Weight
This design element makes a group of bright or large plants that carry a more visual weight than the horizontal lines, fine textures, or calm colors that vanish into the background. A high visual weight element makes it more memorable while a low visual weight element builds cohesion and provides a resting place for the eye.
