Urban gardens regularly bring as many constraints as they do opportunities. It is important while delivering the wishes of the client that the landscape relates strongly to the architecture of the house and the site context. Strong design requires good structure and careful balance between hard and soft landscape components. The versatility of space is often necessary for families where adults and children are sharing a space. In small courtyard gardens, every part of the design has to count. The balance between paving, planting, the position of focal points and borrowed views are some of the components that need careful consideration. Being a country of outdoor-loving people, lighting is an excellent way of extending the use of a garden and can often transform both the appearance and function of space from daytime to evening.
