The Principle of Balance
Is there something overpowering or dominating in your garden? It’s probably upsetting your garden’s balance and compromising its harmony, comfort and stability.
In this episode we chat about practical ways to achieve balance in your garden. We discuss how to achieve weighting without symmetry, applying mass and void and how to incorporate a pleasing composition of flow, shapes, texture and colour.
This episode is the second in a series on garden design principles aimed at helping you assess your garden and create a beautiful space that works for you.
