I am often asked what element or part of the garden should be changed to make it more modern. Modern garden architecture, which in the case of a well-designed garden is usually enough to change a small detail, in most cases installing modern lighting, rebuilding a resting place or adding extras such as a small water fountain will not help. nothing.
A poorly designed garden layout or poorly selected plant species will always have a negative impact on its perception. Lack of correct composition and incorrect initial assumptions will last for years. The only solution is to redesign the garden often using existing plants. The modern architecture of the gardens fits well with modern forms. Strong geometric shapes, expressive and at the same time minimalist solutions are not always compatible with gardens designed even a decade ago. In this case, it is always better to contact a designer to evaluate and propose an optimal solution.
Over the years, we have become accustomed to simple gardens with clear divisions. There should be a terrace, a place for the barbecue and a sandbox for the children or a swing. Today, we move away from such a clear division. Of course, separate areas are still a key element of the garden, but less obtrusive.
If the pond was a representative place in the garden, it now becomes a small aquatic element given in a completely different way. See my blog article: What instead of a pond.

The same goes for the other elements. A central terrace with the function of relaxation, socialization and recreation is divided into several elements often in different places in the garden. The barbecue can be replaced by a modern fireplace or fireplace. A simple children's sandbox, combined with a writing board and a climbing wall, becomes the center of children's play, and a swing with hammocks around the trees is part of a summer cinema for the whole family.
Modern garden architecture breaks the previous framework and encourages spending more time than before in the garden. Combined with modern technology, it is an endless source of possibilities for both active and peaceful relaxation.
