Tiffany’s Garden

Creating a landscape project Tiffany Garden

 

Tiffany’s Garden is the author’s landscape design of the La Rossa team. We want to open the veil, show how the idea was brought to life, taking into account the peculiarities of the location and the wishes of the residents of the courtyard. An example would be the design of the territory in Kyiv, where architectural objects were already located, a lawn was planted. Our task is to landscaping the backyard.

 

The design project was created for a young family with two children – a 10-year-old son and a 3-year-old daughter. When landscaping, the interests of all family members were taken into account. The boy plays football, so most of the territory was left under the lawn, for games and training. We planted those types of plants that customers like the most, while they can comfortably grow in the area. The wish was also expressed that the garden should remain decorative throughout the season.

 

How did the Tiffany Garden appear and be designed?

 

As a rule, the starting point for design is the house. It sets the style of the garden, and in combination with the design solution of landscaping, it is a single harmonious image. In our case – a large white house made of concrete and glass, in the Art Nouveau style. Cuboid shape, carved passages set a clear geometric rhythm. When developing the plan, the designer suggested repeating modern notes in the layout of flower beds, in the form of trees, block mono-plantings. But in this design project, the house is not the only inspiration.

 

The name of the project contains the very beginning from which the whole concept was born. In the design of the pool area, a light stained glass panel made in the Tiffany technique was proposed. It became the basis not only for the name of the garden, but also set the style elements – irregularly shaped flower beds that adjoin the paths. Each such polygon is filled with a single landing, in order to make the texture and color well read. All this together creates the same stained glass effect.

 

Tiffany’s design tricks

 

What design solutions are used in this project:

 

  • lindens sheared in the shape of a cube. Even after the foliage falls, the tree frame looks aesthetically pleasing and outstanding;
  • Royalty apple trees in flower beds. In the spring they are covered with fragrant flowers, and the purple leaf creates a beautiful accent throughout the warm season;
  • single plantings under apple trees – one triangle is filled with daylily Stella de Oro, the other figure is filled with lavender;
  • conifers are planted in triangles and polygons on gravel – they remain green in winter;

Yews were planted in the shady area, which are planned to be cut in columns in the future. This will help emphasize the modern style, it will become one of the elements that echoes the shape of the house.

Also planted on the site are Limespite hydrangeas, astilbes, hostas and many other plants.

 

Recreation area: swimming pool

 

On the territory there is a rectangular pool. We placed here flower beds of irregular shape, each of which is trimmed with white borders. This creates a single geometric ensemble, where the pool itself remains the leading figure. Even after cutting the vegetation, thanks to the white edging, the conceived pattern is readable, preserving the concept of the garden.

 

The flower beds were filled with lightning, autumn asters, daylilies and some bulbous plants. The floristic ensemble creates a mood with a special sound that is heard when herbs and flowers sway. For a recreation area, this is a winning solution, as it contributes to complete emotional relaxation. Two spring-flowering bird cherry Schubert bring their accent: with young foliage, the tree has a beautiful green color, and with full dissolution – a noble burgundy.

 

In the course of the work done, plants were selected and planted for the entire site, with the help of which we created a single harmonious picture. Without any hesitation, we can safely say that our customers were satisfied with our work. And what could be more inspiring for us?
