 PRINCIPLES

LANDSCAPING
 PROPORTION
• Proportion refers to the size of an object
in relation to other objects in the
landscape.
• It's important to think about proportion
between plants and hardscapes.
ORDER
• Order refers to the organization and balance in
a landscape.
• Order can be achieved in your yard by using
the more formal symmetrical balance or the
informal asymmetrical balance.
 REPETITION
• The goal of repetition is to create predictable
and familiar patterns and sequences in the
landscape.
• To achieve this, landscape design elements or
specific features can be repeated throughout
the space.
FOCALIZATION
• Focalization is created as a visual break in
the sequence and flow of the landscape.
• The focal point is the point or area of the
landscape that attracts the viewer’s eyes.

moon, downlighting is the most natural
form of landscape lighting.
ARCHITECTURAL LIGHTING

 TYPES
OF
C

LANDSCAPING
ARTIFICIAL
• Man alters the natural
environment by creating an
artificial environment such as
fields and farms and landscaped
gardens.
• Man designs the landscape
around the built environment for
its pleasant and aesthetic
appearance.
• We designs it either by merging
the building with the natural
environment or by creating
Parks and Gardens.
• In doing so, we can makes the
environment pleasant to live in.
NATURAL
• A landscape derived from the
natural habitat of the region
constitutes a natural
environment and depends on
the type of existing natural
surroundings such as a forest or
a desert. Such an environment
exists even in man’s absence.
• Natural landscape is one that is
not affected by human
activities. Natural landscape
remains intact if the living and
non-living elements of that
natural environment are free to
move and change.
HARD
• It is used to describe
construction materials.
• A wide range of hard
landscape materials
can be use as
brick,gravel,rockor
stone,concrete,etc .
SOFT
• It is describe the
vegetative materials
which are used to
improve a landscape by
design.
• The range of soft
landscape materials
includes each layer of the
ecological sequence:
aquatic plants, semi-
aquatic plants, field layer
plants .

BONSAI
• Japanese art form using cultivation
techniques to produce small trees in
containers that mimic the shape and
scale of full size.
• The purposes of bonsai are primarily
contemplation for the viewer, and the
pleasant exercise of effort and
ingenuity for the grower. By contrast
with other plant cultivation practices,
bonsai is not intended for production
of food or for medicine.

persistent woody stems above
the ground.
• They are distinguished from trees
by their multiple stems and
shorter height, and are usually
under 6 m (20 ft) tall.
GRAFTING
• It is a horticultural technique
whereby tissues of plants are joined
so as to continue their growth
together.
• The upper part of the combined plant
is called the scion while the lower part
is called the rootstock.
• The success of this joining requires
that the vascular tissue grow together
and such joining is called
inosculation.
LOOPING
