Tips for Urban Landscaping
Urban landscaping simply means landscaping in an urban setting – the application of landscaping principles in cities, towns, and other built-up areas.
Urban landscaping is relevant not only to businesses with premises in urban locations, but also to councils, and to those with properties in urban areas. Whatever your need though, let’s take a look at some tips that can help with your urban landscaping design.
Tips for Urban Landscaping
Use Oasis Lighting
Lighting is a large part of a lot of urban landscaping and can be effective not only in providing visibility, but also in guiding the eye. You can use spotlights and LED lights in order to light specific elements within your garden, such as a particularly attractive potted plant, or perhaps a small outdoors statue. How about a water feature?
Avoid flat even lighting, and instead think about creating pockets of light that will be far more visually arresting.
Include a Water Features
Speaking of which, there are loads of great things you can get for a garden and these are all able to change the feel of your garden in many positive ways – they create a shimmering and sparkling lighting source and they create a trickling sound that is highly natural sounding as well as being relaxing and peaceful – it’s like having one of those ‘sounds of nature’ CDs on repeat and just chilling out to it.
Be Creative With Seating
Ask yourself: what is the purpose of urban landscaping? To create a space for relaxation and conversation, right? In which case, it’s important to consider how you and others will be relaxing here.
A swing bench is also something many people get pleasure out of. They’re great fun, a great novelty, and the fact you have them means that you can relax by cradling yourself. Other options include floor cushions, or deck chairs.
Use Wood
Finally, remember that there are other ways to bring a natural feel to an urban space. Decking is natural looking, soft under food, and a great alternative to walking on the grass. It has a very minimalist effect and it would match a water feature or a hot tub perfectly.
