On Garden Design

The Principle of Unity


Listen Later

Why is it that some gardens just feel right? And others feel chaotic, disjointed and jarring? It’s probably all about unity.

In this episode we chat about practical ways to achieve unity in your garden. We discuss how repetition brings coherence, how taking the lead from a style, theme or genre provides a unifying language and why sense of place is an important consideration.
This podcast is the first of a series on garden design principles aimed at helping you assess your garden and create a beautiful space that works for you.
