Quiet Nature’s Guiding Principles for Landscape Design
Design Should be Timeless
• Avoid fashions or trends that go out of style
• Create spaces that look like they could have been built 50 years ago or 50 years from now
Function Dictates Design
• Every element or space has to be defendable – why is it there? How does it work with the other elements
• Determine the ‘why’ before the ‘what and the how’
Right Plant for the Right Place
• Chosen for soil, moisture, and light conditions; drought tolerance, overall pest resistance
• Native plants take priority where suitable
Emulate Natural Processes
• Diversify – monocultures do not exist in nature
• Study natural patterns/rhythms/micro-climates
• Create opportunities for ‘at-source’ water infiltration
Lowest Impact Materials Possible
• Use of natural materials with minimal processing (natural stone, untreated wood, recycled materials)
• Use of locally sourced materials wherever possible
• Avoid soil mixtures (ie: triple mix) – use on-site soil wherever possible and select plants to suit soil, not the other way around.
Design for Ease of Maintenance
• Defined plant groupings for easy identification & weed control
• Minimal resources needed to perform required care
• Garden bed lines to allow for easy grass cutting where applicable
• Use products that require minimal ongoing treatments or sealants
