Backyards are the thing that we all wish to have but, unfortunately, not many of us do. They can present a beautiful extension of your indoor space if you manage to get the style and the design just right. However, that being said, there are so many different ways you can approach styling your backyard that it can sometimes be quite difficult to decide on a particular style.
That being said, the best course of action is usually to go for a timeless design that will work for you for many years to come. If you manage to create such a vibe in your backyard, you can even choose to replace some smaller elements of the design to follow some future hot trends. But, how do you create a timeless-looking backyard?
Take care of landscaping
Landscaping plays a huge role in any backyard design. Being able to create different zones and find the perfect spot for every single feature, plant and item is what mastering the backyard design is all about. For some additional, timeless vibe, you can even consider creating different layers in your yard not only with the plants you choose to plant but with the pots you choose to put them in as well.
Keep it well-maintained
Another classic aspect of a timeless backyard design is a well-maintained look. Here, you want to make sure that your grass is regularly mowed and that there are no dry or dying plants anywhere. If you have trees in your backyard, make sure you rake your grass regularly to get rid of dry leaves. You can use those leaves to make your own organic compost. Nothing says timeless class like a backyard that is truly green.
Take care of your pathways
Pathways and pavers are also the things that can truly either make or break the design of your backyard. Old, unkempt and worn out pathways have the power to instantly diminish the look of your backyard no matter how beautiful everything else looks like. That’s why you should look to invest in some quality pavers. You can choose to go with geometrical, elegant cobblestones which will provide your backyard with a naturally beautiful, timeless look.
Make it functional
Furthermore, the functionality of the space is the thing that also affects its final look. So, unless your outdoor space is both stylish and functional, the simple visual appeal just won’t be enough. Besides, you wouldn’t want to have a beautiful space you can’t enjoy in any way. Therefore, aside from creating a beautiful seating area in your backyard, you can also consider adding an outdoor kitchen or a simple grilling station, so that you can enjoy spending some time with your loved ones out in the fresh air while preparing some delicious meals.
Go for timeless but embrace versatile
Finally, a timeless-looking outdoor space, even though undoubtedly beautiful, can become too much “already-seen” over time. That’s why you should make small alterations to your outdoor area whenever you feel like it. These don’t have to be anything grandiose – they can be simple updates and touch-ups here and there that will bring just a touch of fresh visual interest in the space. Therefore, consider changing up your seating pillow covers from time to time, or play around with your pot arrangements. During warmer nights, hang up fairy lights in your backyard to create a romantic vibe. When the nights get a bit chilly, add a chunky warm throw blanket or two to your patio, so that you can snuggle up and still enjoy spending time outdoors.
While some people who don’t have the luxury of having an outdoor space are full of ideas about how they would set them up if they did, the ones who actually do can sometimes lack a bit of inspiration. However, thanks to the power of the internet and the vastness of information it offers, anyone can get inspired if they only remember where to look. Finally, if you have already fallen in love with a certain backyard, feel free to copy the style but make sure you add your own little twist to it.

Elche Palm Groves
Elche palm groves are one of the defining features of this lovely green city and can be reached in less than 20 minutes from Santa Pola. Visiting the groves is well worth the short drive where you will find much to discover among the pleasant nature trails. The layout of Elche palm groves and gardens makes it possible to visit many of the city's historical attractions without too much of a walk. These include charming squares and plazas, several museums, the Arab Baths and the Basilica de Santa María. You are also never far from cafes, bars and restaurants. With beautiful surrounding gardens, many visitors like to bring along a picnic to enjoy in the welcoming shade.
Elche Palm Groves History
It's not certain when the first date palms were planted. It could have been as far back as the 5th century BC by Carthaginians. The first intricate forms of irrigation and water management were introduced when the Romans settled in the area, and further developed under Arab rule. Since then they have been well cared for and were declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2000.
Among the many impressive palms, some of which have been given quirky names, is the famous Imperial Palm. It is believed to be around 165 years old and was named for and dedicated to Empress Elisabeth of Austria who visited the groves in 1894. Close to this grand palm tree is the Palm Grove Museum. Here you can learn about the history of the groves and browse the displays.
Elche Palm Grove Gardens
Over the years various beautiful parks and gardens have been cultivated to compliment the Elche palm groves. These spread throughout the city and feature many lovely nature trails to explore. Among the trails are some exquisite examples flowers, plants and trees as well as spectacular cactus gardens. Adding to the attractions are lakes, waterfalls, ponds, fountains, monuments, picnic areas and children's playgrounds. Running from the huge Municipal Park to Parc del Filet de Fora is the Vinalopó River. This has further nature trails and various playing fields. Lying between the two parks is the stunning Huerto del Cura Botanical Gardens. All of these attractions can be explored on foot, or visitors can hire a bike from the Tourist Information Bureau.


Laing o'rourke / NHS Newcastle Hospitals Trust
Newcastle upon Tyne
Southern Green was appointed as part of the design team bidding for a multi massive Newcastle Hospitals PFI. The bid was successful and Southern Green then worked as an integral part of the design team over many years both for Laing o'rourke and also directly for the NHS trust.
Works at the RVI included demolition of many of the old Victorian nightingale wards for replacement with new buildings including the new Children’s Hospital, Atrium and Culture Centre. Southern Green’s scope included landscape masterplanning, as well as detailed hard and soft landscape design for the external spaces and internal courtyards.
The listed boundary railings were amended to include a new gateway to reveal the facade of the Peacock Building and statue of Queen Victoria for the first time. Complex softworks and hardworks were required to meet strict design guidelines, to overcome levels differences and to provide an interface between the old and new parts of the hospital, and to find a balance between the Victorian and contemporary architectural styles.


The transformation of Union Terrace Gardens (UTG) is set to start this summer following the selection of a contractor by Aberdeen City Council.
The flagship City Centre Masterplan project will transform the Victorian park into an inclusive 21st Century space by improving access, amenity and activity whilst enhancing UTG’s heritage features.
The design includes three pavilions (on Union Street, Union Terrace and Rosemount Viaduct), a walkway from Union Street, landscaping and lighting, and the refurbishment of the Union Terrace arches.
International infrastructure group Balfour Beatty has been chosen to carry out the £25.7 million regeneration of UTG after taking part in a competitive tendering process, which will conclude with the signing of legal agreements.
The first phase of work will include building a permanent safety structure on Union Bridge.
Council Co-Leader Councillor Douglas Lumsden said: “With the selection of Balfour Beatty as contractor, the job of turning the vision for Union Terrace Gardens into reality is about to start in earnest.”
Council Co-Leader Councillor Jenny Laing added: “UTG’s regeneration will complement other major infrastructure projects nearing completion, including the Event Complex Aberdeen (TECA) and the redeveloped Aberdeen Art Gallery, both world-class facilities.”
And Councillor Marie Boulton, CCMP spokesperson, said: “For well over 100 years Union Terrace Gardens has served as Aberdeen’s green heart and this Council is proud to be enriching that legacy.”
Construction is expected to be completed by summer 2021.
Hector MacAulay, Balfour Beatty’s Regional Managing Director of Scotland and Ireland, said: “We are looking forward to working with Aberdeen City Council to transform the historic Union Terrace Gardens, which on completion will significantly contribute to the Council’s City Centre Masterplan.”

Cassiobury Hub wins two accolades
Based at Watford's best loved park, Cassiobury Hub - built thanks to a major regeneration project led by Watford Borough Council - has won the Most Sustainable Construction Award and Project of the Year Award at the Hertfordshire Building Futures Awards, which celebrates schemes at the forefront of sustainable design and construction.
The project, which began in 2011, received £6.6m of funding (£5m from the Heritage Lottery Fund and Big Lottery Fund, and £1.6m from the council) and the state-of-the-art and energy efficient Cassiobury Park Hub is now home to additional changing rooms, toilets, fully inclusive Changing Places facilities, events and education space, and the popular Daisy’s in the Park café. The paddling pools also received a £2.8m upgrade as a part of the regeneration works.
Elected Mayor of Watford, Peter Taylor, said: “I am delighted that this major regeneration project led by Watford Borough Council has been recognised by the Building Futures judges. Cassiobury Hub is already proving to be a very popular building. Our investment, along with funding from the Heritage Lottery and Big Lottery funding, has transformed the area into an exciting, modern water play and splash area for families to enjoy. The hub is well used by local schools and provides a meeting place for the whole community. These awards are well deserved recognition for all those who helped design and deliver these wonderful new facilities.”
The Most Sustainable Construction Award, is for developments that have made an exceptional contribution to environmental sustainability, throughout the whole life-cycle of the project, from the early planning stages, throughout construction, to the completed build and consideration of future uses. The judges said: “An outstanding example of how modern sustainable construction can be provided simply. The social sustainability aspects of The Hub are particularly noteworthy, having resulted in the sensitive regeneration of an important area of Cassiobury Park, by providing an area for healthy outdoor play and recreation for generations to come.”
The Project of the Year Award, is for schemes that have holistically embraced sustainability and are an exemplar for best practice in sustainable development. Submissions that push the boundaries and provide an insight into the future of sustainability, or provide innovative and/or bespoke solutions are welcomed in this category. The judges said: "This public building has had a significant positive impact on the Park. People love it. Good design and some clever thinking has created a park with its own distinctive character."

Trent Lakes Council has supported our proposal to develop a concept plan for a Nogies Creek Waterway Park, northeast of Bobcaygeon. A presentation by our CAO, Rob Messervey, with Dean and Principal of Fleming College Frost Campus Linda Skilton, was provided to Council on January 20.
The park would be located along Nogies Creek, which stretches from the north end of Pigeon Lake, up to Bass Lake (northeast of Bobcaygeon).
The park concept may include:
- A canoe route
- Fish sanctuary and fisheries research area
- Scientific study
- Self-guided nature trails
- Interpretive profiling of unique watershed geology, physiography (land between), fishery, natural features (wetlands), forestry, wildlife, and cultural heritage; and
- A recreational linkage with North Pigeon Lake/Boyd Island.
As part of creating the park, Fleming College is considering conveyance of a property to Kawartha Conservation, which is along Nogies Creek and surrounded by Crown Land. Undeveloped road allowances owned by the municipality would be utilized to support a pedestrian trail to provide student access to the property.
The next steps involve establishing a working group with partners, and then further developing and finalizing the concept plan before seeking plan approval from Council.

On March 6, 2014, the John H. Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape, and Design invited a panel of green roof experts that represent development, design, construction and regulatory stakeholders to discuss how to get green roofs right. This event was part of the Building, Ecology, Science and Technology (B.E.S.T.) lecture series. What’s better, a green roof or a cool roof? Is rainwater harvesting more important than mitigating urban heat island effect? How effective are green roofs at managing stormwater? What is a responsible alternative to green roofs where they are not feasible? How important are irrigation, soils and plant selection for a healthy green roof? Are you confused by the conflicting Toronto Green Roof Bylaw and LEED requirements? Toronto is the first city in North America to have a bylaw to require and govern the construction of green roofs on new development as of May, 2009. Since its inception, a number of issues and questions have emerged that present challenges and opportunities to all green roof stakeholders. Listen to an expert panel present their perspective on the Toronto Green Roof Bylaw and their views on how it can be improved to deliver all of the benefits that green roof technology promises. Joe D’Abramo has practiced as a city planner with the City of Toronto for 34 years, where, as Acting Director of Zoning and Environmental Planning, he was involved in both development approval and policy formulation. His work has focused on researching and developing policies related to environmental impacts of urban development practices involving water quality, air quality, noise and contaminated soil issues. He is responsible for preparing Toronto’s new city wide Zoning Bylaw including work on city-wide amendments governing drive throughs, renewable energy devices and front yard parking. His environmental planning work includes preparation of the Toronto Green Standard, […]

Long seen as one of the gateways into the city, Redondo Beach officials are looking for ways to revamp Torrance Boulevard.
Several months ago, the City Council enlisted the Los Angeles Chapter of the Urban Land Institute, a nonprofit education and research institute, to study the Torrance Boulevard corridor and develop several concepts for the busy thoroughfare.
The institute created different concepts for the area and submitted the plans to city officials. Now, City Council members, the mayor and Planning Commissioners will hold a joint study session Sept. 14 to discuss the plans. Soon after, several public meetings will be held to solicit input from the community, and then several public hearings at the Planning Commission and City Council level will be held to further refine the plan.
Here are the three scenarios created by the consultants for the boulevard that Redondo Beach staff deemed feasible:
l Three-Pod Scheme: Institute staff identified three areas where Torrance Boulevard intersects other heavily trafficked roads for higher-intensity development. The consultants envision these areas as gateways for the boulevard. These streets are Pacific Coast Highway, Camino Real and Prospect Avenue. This scenario includes pedestrian-friendly areas, with possibly a narrower street, heavy landscaping, pocket parks and angled parking. Between these areas, smaller residential and mixed-use projects could be built.
l The Linear Park: In the second scenario, the boulevard is seen as a beautiful entry to the pier. In this vision, a 50-foot easement along all of Torrance Boulevard would be created in order to develop a long park. Residential units could be constructed behind the park on larger sites and the three intersections, identified as the gateways, could accommodate three- to four-story mixed-use development.
l Residential Boulevard Scheme: In this scenario, housing construction is emphasized with neighborhood retail construction developed at the three main intersections. The possible two- to three-story housing would be pushed closer to the street edge and enhanced with heavy landscaping. According to the consultants, strong architectural guidelines would be necessary to unify the look of the street.

Your garden is a reflection of your cosmetic sense, creativity and your interest for the greens. It is very easy to obtain a small piece of land in the garden, front yard or in the terrace dedicated for gardening. The natural instinct helps to keep your garden ideas streaming in. But what is more important is how you will care for your plants based on their needs and requirements. Below are a few garden ideas that will definitely help you find what you would like:
Drinking water Gardening - A pond packed with lilies, a fountain, small cascading stream in an exclusive garden are perfect places for pleasure and peacefulness. If space is not factor, then water gardening is one garden idea to treasure. The small fountains in the center of your garden, a stream operating across the garden have an instantaneous effect on its exquisiteness. Water gardens are gaining on popularity for their charm and energy. They attract a sizable number of parrots. Ponds can be dug in to the earth and fountains are available in all sizes and shapes. To become more cost-effective, old cisterns or washtubs could be utilized to grow normal water lilies in them.
Pot Gardening - Among the easiest & most affordable ways to showcase your creative gardening skills is through container gardening. Many attractive gardens are shaped in containers of varied sizes and shapes. It's rather a single container comprising various small crops, or different multi-colored containers comprising various plants. There is no limit to how you can use them. Additionally, pot gardening also solves the condition of limited space. It really is economical, easy to install and maintain, not a problem while moving or relocating making container gardening one of the very most popular garden ideas.


Sustainable solutions and innovation.
Every year, around 900 billion gallons of untreated sewage escapes aging wastewater systems in the U.S. alone, contaminating oceans, rivers, lakes and streams. Eek factor aside, this appallingly common problem impacts fragile aquatic ecosystems, the environment and public health and has far-reaching economic repercussions.
Updating the infrastructure will take decades and cost hundreds of billions of dollars. Other solutions are urgently needed, such as modelling to predict leakage and green infrastructures, such as rain gardens, green rooftops, porous pavements and artificial wetlands, to prevent stormwater from infiltrating sewers and causing them to overflow.
Technological advances offer another way to tackle the problem, an opportunity that has been embraced by Kando, a company recently selected as one of Elemental Excelerator’s new startups.

Shire President David Lavell said the pegs were linked to the development of a master plan for the lake.
The plan would guide the council when considering any proposed capital developments at the lake over a 20-year period.
“The master plan will assist in managing growth and development of the site, while preserving its recreational opportunities and environment and heritage values,” he said.
Cr Lavell said community consultation some years ago revealed a strong desire to retain the services at the lake, while providing enhanced facilities for visitors.
“Basically users told us they love all the lake has to offer, particularly the beaches, canoe hire and camping, but it needs to meet modern needs,” he said.
“The development of this master plan will show how we can achieve enhanced visitor experiences over the coming decades. The scope of the plan will investigate elements such as improvements to the public day area, a function centre, play equipment, campground and maybe even a caravan park.
“The survey pegs are therefore there to help mark out where this development could occur, taking into account the native environment, vehicle movements and ultimately, cost.”
Cr Lavell said it was important to note that there were no allocations for any development listed in the current long-term financial plan.
“This master plan will assist in determining the priority of and level of resources to be allocated by Council to any future developments and is an important document,” he said.


TIPS: fruit trees for small backyards
Top 10 Fruit Trees for Small Spaces You don’t need to own acres of orchards or live in the South to grow gorgeous fruit trees. Most important: know your site’s drainage. Most fruit trees will not survive in soil that drains so slowly it remains water-saturated for extended periods. Scale trees to their surroundings. Use small- or medium-size varieties for smaller houses and yards. On any site, put smaller trees near the house and taller ones farther out in the yard or near its edge. Trees and shrubs are either deciduous or evergreen. Deciduous trees lose their leaves in the fall and are bare all winter, though the leaves often give a final show of beautiful colors before The Top 10 Trees for the Small Yard Recommended Trees for Urban Settings The garden experts at HGTV.com share how to pick and grow the best fruit trees for your home garden, including peach, lemon, fig and plum trees.

The perfect garden is a balance between order and chaos, and getting that balance right is the sign of a good gardener. The secret is to use neat, dense plants as accents to the more random growth of most garden plants – and when it comes to neat and dense, boxwood is a great choice. At the Tree Center we carry a wide range of boxwoods for lots of different needs, from the tall American Boxwood for tall hedges and specimens to the English Boxwood for low hedges and the Wintergreen Boxwood for clipped balls.
Growing Franklin’s Gem Korean Boxwood Shrubs
Franklin’s Gem Boxwood fits right in as our smallest, most compact boxwood, which is also incredibly winter hardy. If you love the neat form of boxwood, but find clipping a chore, then Franklin’s Gem is the boxwood for you. It is so neat, with tiny leaves and a perfect rounded form, that it really needs no clipping at all to be the perfect addition to your garden. Plant a pair in pots to frame your front door. Add several to the foundation planting around your home as accents and groups. Create a miniature hedge to edge a small bed by planting a row of them 18 inches apart. Wherever you use it you can be sure of a neat, pest-free plant that will be attractive and green in both cold and hot weather.
Plant your Franklin’s Gem Boxwood in any location, from full sun to moderate shade, in most kinds of soil. For best growth add some organic material when planting and as mulch each spring. Water your plants well during the first years and during hot, dry weather in summer. Especially if you clip regularly, use a fertilizer for evergreen plants and hedges each spring. An annual clipping at the end of winter will keep your plants extra neat, but Franklin’s Gem Boxwood is so dense it really doesn’t even need to be clipped at all.
History and Origins of the Franklin’s Gem Korean Boxwood
The Korean boxwood, Buxus sinica, which was previously called ‘microphylla’ or ‘koreana’, is a native of China and Korea. It has been grown in Korean, Japanese and Chinese gardens for centuries, loved for its compact form, with small leaves and dense growth easily clipped into various forms. It quickly became popular in the Northeast of the USA when gardeners there discovered that the English boxwood (Buxus sempervirens) was not very hardy and became brown and unsightly during the winter months anywhere colder than zone 6. However the Korean boxwood was hardier, soon becoming very popular for that reason, and nurseries found even hardier forms over time, so that with careful selection it is possible to grow boxwood throughout zone 5 with plants that remain a healthy green color all winter. Korean boxwood is also hardier and usually smaller than the Japanese boxwood (Buxus microphylla var. japonica).
The Brandywine Valley is known for its grand gardens, and many of the plants in those gardens came from J. Franklin Styer’s Nursery in Glen Mills, Pennsylvania. The nursery was founded in 1890 to supply the gardens of the wealthy properties in the area, and it was Jacob Styler’s son, Franklin, who in the 1960’s received a package of seedling boxwoods from Japan. Like all seedlings, each one was different and one in particular caught his eye. It had very small leaves and a dense, compact form that needed almost no clipping to remain neat and rounded. Not only did it remain green and glossy at the height of summer, it was also very winter-hardy, and turned a rich olive-green in winter, without any browning. It was such a gem in the garden that it soon became just that – ‘Franklin’s Gem’.
Buying Franklin’s Gem Boxwoods at The Tree Center
This special form of Korean boxwood cannot be grown from seed but must be reproduced from stem pieces skillfully rooted by expert gardeners. Our plants are exact copies of Franklin Styler’s original plant, grown form rooted pieces. You should always try to avoid cheaper plants simply labeled as ‘dwarf boxwood’, because they could be almost anything and are certainly not this very special and carefully chosen plant. We are thrilled to be able to offer you this very special form of boxwood, but we know that our supplies will quickly run out, because this plant is so popular, and rarely available. So order now for those doorway pots, or for that planting you have always wanted, and avoid the disappointment of the ‘sold out’ sign.

Limerick City and County Council have begun a new project to restore and revitalise the Georgian laneways in the city.
A team of architects, designers and engineers have been selected to redesign the Limericks laneways to make them a more enjoyable space for locals and tourists. There will be opportunities to view and comment on the developing proposals in 2021.
Rosie Webb, head of Urban Innovation in Limerick city and county council, stated, “Limericks Georgian heritage is a fantastic resource and a jewel in the crown of the city. Reimagining the laneways that connect the streets is an important way to develop the city and attract more people to live here.
The laneways project is part of the Living Georgian City initiative; the scheme recently won a Chambers Ireland Excellence in Local Government Award in the Enhancing the Urban Environment category.
The plans are to revamp twenty-five laneways, seven of which will be fabricated to a higher level.

Article by Nick Rinylo
Let’s face it, we create meaning in our physical world – be it through the objects we collect, maintaining a tidy environment or even how we choose to decorate our home. Often, our homes can say a lot about how we feel on the inside. In some cases, they can even influence our moods entirely, whether we’re aware of it or not.
A cluttered home can entrap a person and make it tricky to get things done. The same goes for your garden. Whilst it may seem pretty superficial, it’s important to remember that your interior reflects your exterior and vice versa. Sure, as humans, we have a basic need for shelter. But this instinct for security only scratches the surface.
Beyond that, we also need comfort, beauty and inspiration – all of which can be found in your garden. In fact, designing your garden with your well-being in mind can do wonders for your mental health. That’s why we’re sharing our top peaceful garden ideas.
How do you make a peaceful garden?
If you’re in need of a bit of zen in your life, here are six surefire ways to make a garden peaceful.
1. Clear and clean your garden
Unsurprisingly, one of the first peaceful garden ideas we’re bringing is to clean up your garden. So simple, yet so effective. We all know that dishes in the sink and piles of laundry around the house can cause stagnant energy. And your garden is no different!
Spending an hour or two cleaning up your garden can totally help you switch off and relax. So, look around your garden and get to work. Get rid of weeds, cut the grass and find a suitable home for gardening equipment.
If you really want to revive your mood, consider cleaning your outdoor furniture. Freshening up your outdoor furniture will give your garden an instant makeover. Plus, that way, you can soak up the sun’s rays without worrying about dirt and debris.
2. Install a water feature
Gardens are the perfect place to unwind and reconnect with nature. Having said that, if you live in the city or next to a busy road, it can be tricky to block the rest of the world out. Luckily, you can drown out unwanted noise and create that much-needed tranquil ambience by installing a water feature.
Remember, you don’t need to install a huge fountain in the middle of your garden. Even the smallest of water features can make a big difference and aid meditation – whether it’s a bubbling stream from a small ornament or a gentle waterfall in a pond.
Don’t forget to think carefully about the maintenance and logistics of your water feature. Is the water feature self contained or will you have to connect your fountain to a water supply?
Equally, it’s important to think long and hard about the design of your water feature. At the end of the day, it’s all about creating cohesion. You want to make sure that the style of your chosen water feature marries well with the architecture of your home. After all, it can be difficult to blend an old-fashioned water feature into a contemporary space.
3. Hang wind chimes
Another easy way to transform your garden into a tranquil oasis is to hang wind chimes near your seating area. Wind chimes emit soothing sounds to help create the zen garden of your dreams.
Traditional aluminium chimes are often a firm favourite. If you’re looking for something a little less harsh, however, consider getting bamboo chimes instead. They are much softer and produce a mellower chime (your neighbours will certainly appreciate this!). Not to mention, they are a great choice for those who prefer the natural aesthetic.
4. Create a dedicated gravel area
If you really want to go the extra mile, why not go down the traditional route? This next peaceful garden idea takes inspiration from traditional mini zen gardens.
Pale hues of fine gravel or sand can be quite soothing. They can also make the area they’re in look larger. Using a rake, you can get creative with patterns and create waves to make breathtaking focal points. Ta-da! You have your own mini zen garden.
Plus, simply creating patterns and raking through the gravel can be quite the meditative experience.
5. Arrange miniature rockeries
This next one may seem simple, but it’s without a doubt one of the most effective peaceful garden ideas. To transform your garden into a retreat and create pockets of interest, try arranging small rock gardens.
Hot tip for creating mini zen gardens: it’s a good idea to choose textures and tones that complement the architectural features of your home.
6. Create a comfortable seating area
When it comes to outdoor furniture, we tend to be less fussy than when picking furniture for inside our homes. But in reality, we should put as much thought into choosing our outdoor furniture as we do when picking a sofa for the living room or even an office chair.
Ideally, you should be able to relax on your outdoor furniture for an extended period of time. It’s also crucial that your outdoor furniture supports your body.
Just imagine catching up with friends and tucking into some alfresco nibbles whilst swaying on a hanging chair. Sounds like a dream, right?
At Skyline Design, we specialise in designing all-weather luxury outdoor furniture. We offer a wide range of outdoor furniture, including daybeds, sofas, and much more. Get in touch today and discover how we can help you make your garden more peaceful.
We hope these peaceful garden ideas provide some inspiration. For more garden design tips, visit our blog.

Designing and maintaining a paludarium is an incredibly fascinating and relaxing hobby. Most aquarists enjoy experimenting with emerged plant life and owing a paludarium can take that fascination to a different level. The ecosystem you create is limited only by your imagination.

Paludariums can be used in both fresh and salt water environments and evolve beautifully as you add new species and fauna.

MILLEDGEVILLE — The City of Milledgeville anxiously awaited the final gateway project recommendations after the 10-week pilot Georgia Downtown Renaissance Fellows program concluded this July. City Council saw the results during Tuesday's work session.
Milledgeville was selected last April as a pilot candidate for services such as downtown corridor entrance design and green space planning. The Georgia Municipal Association (GMA), in partnership with the Georgia Cities Foundation (GCF) and the University of Georgia's Carl Vinson Institute of Government, developed the program sending an undergraduate landscape architecture student from UGA's College of Environment & Design to work with three select cities this summer.
The intern, Quynh Pham, started her Milledgeville stint May 20. Pham worked with Institute of Government faculty and Milledgeville city leaders to provide technical expertise.
Pham partnered weekly with the downtown development office to help design distinctive gateways into the city using more appealing signage and other improvements to draw people downtown.
Her extensive research and applicable projects impressed Council Tuesday.
“I really enjoyed working with Milledgeville. It has a lot of historical value and character. A lot of the work I did, I wanted to maintain that character,” Pham said.
She opened Tuesday's presentation with attractive entranceway signs for East Hancock and South Wayne Streets.
Repainting, logos and ornamental grasses additions would add interest giving Milledgeville a defined character, according to Pham.
“That way it doesn't cost too much to maintain it, and it's attractive,” the aspiring landscape architect said.
The structural catwalk on West Broad Street is a hot topic.
Pham suggested removing the rusted fencing for a cleaner look, painting and vegetation if the structure was closed to pedestrians.
If it remained open, other options are giving an aesthetically pleasing bridge inspired by New York City designs.
Carlee Schulte, director of Milledgeville's Main Street/Downtown Development Authority, said the Georgia Department of Transportation said the city could move forward with catwalk projects.

Castlegar’s Millennium Park will soon receive a second round of upgrades. The upgrades will include an off-leash dog park; beach volleyball and tennis/pickleball courts; improved access, parking and drop-off areas; a bike skills park; and a secondary beach. These phase two upgrades will be made possible in part by $450,000 from Columbia Basin Trust.
These will build upon phase one upgrades already completed for the park, including new ponds, a covered picnic and concession area and a green gym.
“We are very excited to move forward with these additional projects for Millennium Park. On behalf of Council and area residents, we would like to thank Columbia Basin Trust and Central Kootenay Regional District Area Directors Andy Davidoff and Rick Smith for their support for this project,” said Mayor Lawrence Chernoff. “We expect to begin these projects this year with completion in 2016. The phase two park projects will be a great addition to our regionally oriented Millennium Park.”

A ULI National Advisory Services Panel provided recommendations and strategies for the development of quality parks and open spaces in Downtown Fort Lauderdale in October, 2019.
The Urban Land Institute (ULI) has been engaged by the Fort Lauderdale Downtown Development Authority (DDA) to engage a National Advisory Services Panel to provide recommendations on how to enhance parks and open space in the City’s urban core, and to develop a new vision for Downtown’s most centralized park, Huizenga Plaza, located on the iconic Riverwalk and Las Olas Boulevard. The panel visited Fort Lauderdale October 13th – 18th, 2019.
During the week, the panel toured parks sites and pertinent areas within Downtown Fort Lauderdale, and interview a variety of stakeholders in order to develop a set of strategic recommendations that were presented at the conclusion of the panel’s visit on October 18th at 9:00am at the Porter Riverview Ballroom at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts.
The Advisory Services Panel is being conducted in conjunction with the 10-Minute Walk Campaign, a national movement focused on improving access to parks and green spaces by striving to ensure that residents of urban neighborhoods throughout America have access to a high-quality park within a ten-minute walk from their homes. The 10-Minute Walk Campaign, which has been endorsed by over 230 mayors, is made possible by a joint partnership between the Urban Land Institute, The Trust for Public Land, and the National Recreation and Park Association.
Panel focus areas:
How to develop a new vision for Huizenga Plaza, including new uses, programming design and operational management, along with identifying funding mechanisms and a recommended implementation strategy to support this vision;
What criteria is necessary for the acquisition and development of new park space downtown, along with a strategic decision-making process;
Identifying outreach strategies and partnerships to help gain strong public support for changes and improvements to existing park space; and
How the public and private sector can work together to explain the benefits for property owners and developers to participate in a public parks program.
Key recommendations that the panel touched on during their final presentation include:
- Hiring a Chief Public Realm Officer to manage the park system in downtown with a more unified approach.
- Create a decision-making board for the $200 million bond for parks that voters approved in March 2019.
- Plan for three feet of sea-level rise when designing new parks, and updating existing parks that already flood.
- Relocate the Broward County Jail
- Redefine how, when, and where to build new development based on 2060 flood plain projections
- Create a Riverwalk Resilience District
- When building the new Huizenga Plaza near Las Olas Boulevard, keep storm water management, and things like permeable pavement in mind.
- Upgrade Broward Boulevard to be able to accommodate more density
- Focus on growing the downtown core of the city south of the New River, towards the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport.

WHY TERRAIN GOT INTO DESIGN
In a nutshell: to simplify the process. We want to save our clients time, money and stress. By allowing the designer and builder to collaborate at the beginning of your landscape design project, we limit revisions and deliver a better landscape solution.
At Terrain, we have been building landscape sites since 1996. Our experienced team has built projects from small front walkways to corporate campuses. We have enjoyed serving the Seattle, Bellevue, Kirkland, Mercer Island and Madison Place neighborhoods.
We have learned a lot working with the best local Landscape Designers and Landscape Architects. There is and will always be a market for stand-alone high end landscape architecture and we will continue to work with these well respected firms. We discovered that by bringing a Landscape Architect in house we could cut down on revisions, and realistically create the landscape our clients have imagined with less cooks in the kitchen.
For example, getting grades and elevations correct has been one of the largest reasons for change orders. Our build teams assist the designers in establishing the correct grade requirements from the start. We have been in the game long enough to know what materials hold up and which ones don’t.
The process is simple, read on for the way Terrain offers design packages.
Terrain's Fast Track Design Process
For when the project doesn’t require an in depth design process, we’ll work with you to efficiently draft a scaled one sheet go forward plan. Because we build, our construction teams work hand in hand with the designers to quickly turn the plans into reality. This proposal includes up to 12 hours total of design time both on and off site.
After your initial call or contact with us and our preliminary questions we will set up a meeting at the project location or at our office. At this meeting you will outline your goals and share any photos or ideas that you have collected. This meeting is complimentary for the first 60 minutes. At the conclusion we will send a proposal for continued Fast Track design services.
With your approval to proceed to this phase you will also provide us with a list of basic items that may be in your possession, site survey, plot plan any neighborhood HOA requirements etc. We will come onsite and measure the existing property and document the basic elevations. Design Phase: The Design Phase is an exciting part of the process. This is where all ideas, visions, and creative juices are put onto paper in a professionally drawn landscape design. Our designers are some of the most creative around, and have a gift of creating some of the most naturally pleasing environments as well as drawing on our craftsmen’s experience. Once the design concept is complete it will be presented to you for any final revisions and approval.
After the design is done we will prepare you a detailed bid for the construction phase. This is the stage of the project where all of the design work transforms into planning and execution. You will work with our construction project managers to ensure a smooth start and finish.

TERRAIN’S Comprehensive Design Plan
The next step for you is to invest in a basic site plan. This will help you solidify your decisions and establish the square footage so accurate bids can be done.
Our process is as follows: Design: ~40 hours
- Initial client consultation: 2 hours
-Site measurement, research and base map: 8 hours
- Palette synthesis: 4 hours
-Conceptual design development: assumes two variations: 14 hours
-Design synthesis: 4 hours
-Planting Design: 6 hours
-Final presentation: 2 hours
Following this meeting or upon receipt of the contract, Terrain will measure the site and determine the limits of work. He will shoot grades with a laser level if necessary in order to develop an accurate as-built base from which to conceptualize design ideas. Extensive photos of the site will be taken at this time as well. Measurements will be drafted into CAD or modeled into Sketchup from Terrain’s office and a digital file will be created into which all photos will be uploaded. A .pdf copy of the completed base map will be output and saved into this file.
Once the base map has been created the design process is underway, at this point the client will be invited to the south Seattle materials center. We will arrange to meet with you there to discuss and review material options. Materials and palettes can be addressed at the initial meeting as well if the client’s vision is clear or already refined.
Conceptual design development:
1-2 concepts will be drafted (in CAD or Sketchup) or rendered (manually) as presentation quality material to be shared with the client. A meeting will be set to present the concepts to the client at a time that is convenient to both parties. Concepts will be presented as 11x17 or 24 x 36 color or grayscale prints to be left with the client for review. Concepts should communicate form, function, and clearly address the wishes of the client. The material palette is recommended as well with each concept, project permitting. With the clients input the concepts will be critiqued, reviewed and explored in situ until the client fully understands the expression and function of the proposed designs. Terrain will work with the client to hone the concepts into a definitive and refined design concept. This process often includes some correspondence with the client in regards to materials and site function. Concepts will be broad brush strokes, often deferring details until a design is agreed upon by the client.
We consider a planting plan an essential part of construction drawing set and, though plant recommendations may be made in the conceptual phase, the presentation of a finished planting plan can only be refined once the construction drawings are complete.

The works for Vinci Construction include bespoke shaped metal posts. Vinci won the overall £12.6m contract to construct the visitor facilities at Stonehenge in Wiltshire, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Chris Blandford Associates is the landscape architect for the site and has also produced the management plan and secured planning permission.
According to the company the new centre, designed by Denton Corker Marshall "sits lightly in the landscape and the related infrastructure is successfully absorbed into the folds of the chalkland without impact on archaeology."
The new building is located 1.5 miles from the stones and is connected by a transport. The existing car park and section of the A344 that ran past the site have been closed and reseeded with grass. This will allow the stones to be reconnected to The Avenue, the ancient processional way which leads up to them. Work will complete in the summer of 2014.
The scheme is financed almost entirely by Heritage Lottery Fund money, commercial income and philanthropic donations from the Garfield Weston Foundation, the Linbury Trust and the Wolfson Foundation. It is due for completion in 2014.


Above All Masonry Design and Outdoor Living Showcase Progress on Backyard Pool and Patio Project in Dix Hills, Long Island, NY
Unilock Authorized Contractor, Above All Masonry Design and Outdoor Living excel at creating luxury pool spaces, incorporating a range of different styles and construction techniques. This time, they’re showcasing their work with breathtaking time-lapse footage and cutting-edge photography of a project in Dix Hills, Long Island, NY.
Time-lapse footage offers contractors a way of documenting, not only the end result, but the journey undertaken with a given project. This sort of condensation of the time-frame involved in realizing a design never ceases to put into perspective the amount of hard work required to achieve the end result. Likewise, it testifies to how drastic a transformation has been achieved by the Above All crew over the course of this project.
This video shows the base preparations for, and the laying of, a pool deck and connected patio. Beacon Hill Smooth XL Units in the Steel Mountain color option have been used throughout, along with Brussels Block 1/2 stone accents in the Limestone color option.
This photograph, taken by a drone, gives us a bird’s-eye view of the project, giving us a better idea of the striking geometric detail included in the design – from the curved edges and semi-circular cutouts, to the dramatic grid created by contrasting the pavers with turf.
The grid-like pattern included at the far end of the pool serves to provide an additional contemporary touch. This was made using the Beacon Hill Smooth square, large format unit. By including turf between the stones, the effect is created of the deck dissolving into – what will be – the surrounding lawn.

The Tampa Bay area does a great job of using water wisely inside the home. But during warm, dry months, our area’s water use spikes. In fact, there are times when up to 50 percent of all water used in the Tampa Bay region is used outdoors.
That’s why Tampa Bay Water’s board of directors continues funding support for the Pinellas, Pasco and Hillsborough county Florida-Friendly Landscaping™ (FFL) program. The board just approved total funding of $456,854 in fiscal year 2018 to support the program in its efforts to promote wise irrigation practices and proper Florida landscape designs. Improving outdoor efficiency can yield far-reaching results.
The program emphasizes designing, installing and retrofitting existing landscapes and associated irrigation systems to more Florida-friendly landscapes, which leads to increases in water use efficiency. Homeowners and the building community can achieve Florida-friendly lawns by implementing the nine Florida-Friendly Landscaping™ Principles. These principles are:
