Eden Farm Master Plan

Io LandArch

Io designed the entire landscape for this small farm located in the Ogden Valley area. The Beautiful almost 10-acre site was originally farmland, and the master plan for this project envisions preserving the rural character and function of the landscape by creating a small-scale, self-sustaining farm. Io helped to program the uses across the site, planning for a rotational pasture system for horses, cows and sheep. The site also includes a kitchen garden and orchard with beehives. Chickens and ducks were also located near the kitchen garden and house for fresh eggs. The landscape was not only designed to be functional, but also beautiful, with a formal patio and infinity edge pool overlooking the pastoral scene adjacent lake.

The culinary garden was designed as an extension of the outdoor living area. Twin columns mark the transition between activity areas, while the rectangular shape of the 4 x 6 raised beds reflects a crisp geometry. The pavement of crushed red granite provides a rustic charm as well as permeability.

Vegetable Gardens

The Ardent Gardener Landscape Design

A traditonally design partierre garden using new school materials creates a powerful punch of WOW in this vegetable garden! Custom designed and built steel planters were sand blasted and allowed to rust. The rust color picks up the matching tones in the beautiful natural sandstone path. Intermixing perennials and annuals with the herbs and vegetables makes for an exhuburant bouqet of color and texture.

Garden Design Ideas with a Vegetable Garden and with Raised Garden Bed

Get Inspired by Gardens on Houzz

A lot of the time when you get home from a long day at work, all you want to do is wind down. Where better to do this than in your very own garden at home? If you do it right, a great garden design can send you right into holiday mode. But where to start? There’s so many styles to choose from when it comes to garden design. Whether you want to create a tropical, modern, contemporary, beach style or country garden - or something else entirely - the large garden image gallery on Houzz has got you covered. Get inspired and collect your ideas to narrow down your desired garden style and features.

How to Create a Garden for Your Home

Depending on which style you’re going for, be sure to know what makes a garden and if it’s appropriate for your climate. You may want to consider adding a deck or other landscaping features, but the plants you choose will mostly dictate your style and what kind of ongoing maintenance is required. Don’t worry if your backyard isn’t very spacious - there are many plants that can thrive even in a small space and allow you to turn your space into a little paradise of your own, regardless of size.

Decide which plants to use

The greenery you choose is critical to your look. For example, if you’re trying to create a tropical garden palm trees and bamboo are your go-to options. Other popular options are golden cane palm trees and fern for ground cover. From there you can add some colour with bright flowers like frangipani, hibiscus or bromeliads. All these are actually quite hardy plants, so once established, your tropical garden is actually quite easy to maintain. Use this structure and apply it to your style. Research which plants you need to set your base for a garden and go from there.

Add some decor

If the plants don’t quite do it for you yet, or if you want to add some extra wow-factor, consider adding some extra features. Even if you can’t accommodate a swimming pool, hot tub or pond, you could look at smaller water features. Simple rocks can also have a great effect, while statues and gnomes will add some extra character. Don’t forget to add some furniture so you have a nice place to sit and enjoy your garden!

Need some help?

Once you know what you want your garden to look like, it may be hard to make it a reality on your own. If that is the case for you, consider consulting a professional to help you with your garden design. Every photo you find on Houzz will lead you to the local pro that did the job, so you won’t have a problem picking the perfect person to help! Whether you need a gardener in Brisbane, a landscape architect in Melbourne or a fireplace installer in Sydney, you can be sure to find one on Houzz.
