I don’t know the first thing about design, but I do know what I like. Somehow, that is enough for when it comes to how I decorate my house. Sometimes, I will just buy a new picture that I like and hang it somewhere. Other times though, I do something much bigger and more permanent. One of these things was when I purchased window shutters for two of my rooms last year. I saw them in a magazine and fell in love with them. The funny part is that the shutters were not even what was being advertised, but that is where my eyes went as soon as I turned the page to the ad they were in.

I just liked how much they made the room seem not only classier but brighter too. I didn’t even finish the magazine at that moment.

The function of the park not only beautifies the building. The park is also an area of ​​mental therapy. Beautiful and neat gardens make the residents more comfortable and healthy.

The park also reflects the character of the occupants of the house. For people who want to be practical, maybe, they would prefer to have a simple garden, whether it’s simple in arrangement, the maintenance process, and also the cost of making it cheap.

Unlike the complicated house occupants, they tend to put all the elements in the garden. Thus, the park becomes crowded and complex.

The application of simple and complex plant styles depends on the interests and rights of the park owner. None of the landscape architects or plant stylists forced their will when building a park. They generally give consideration to the most appropriate garden landscape.

Usually, experts will give a number of considerations in the form of a good garden design, as well as the importance of aligning the park with buildings and home interiors. Although the park is in an outside area, it does not mean we can build a park without considering other things such as the interior and the theme of the building.

Yes, the design of the park must be in harmony with the building as a whole. The park serves to enhance the appearance of the building. The choice of a contrasting design will make the atmosphere brighter.

Building a park requires inspiration and inspiration, which can be obtained from various sources, whether it’s from magazines, television, or peering at ideas from friends’ homes. However, where and whatever inspiration you get, it cannot always be realized.

There are four main factors that influence this can be realized, including physical buildings, land, psychological occupants of the house, and the environment. The four are interrelated with each other in determining the design of the park and the choice of filling. Physical factors of the building affect the design, composition of hardscape-softscape, as well as the choice of plant types.
A classic concept building should apply a classic style to the garden. For hardscape, you can choose Roman statues. The types and colors of filler plants vary better.

For homes with a minimalist style, attractive buildings only require four to five types of plants. This type of plant is a plant that has strong characters such as frangipani and coconut trees.

Lately, there is a tendency for the availability of land to become increasingly narrow. This affects the area of ​​open land for parks. In homes like this, the function of the park must be maximized.

The homeowners have also placed the need for the park as a second priority after the building. Your consideration is no longer located in the quantity or extent of the park, but more on quality. This quality is in turn related to the psychological occupants of the house. Good garden quality will certainly be an antidote to saturation and stress due to daily routines.… Read More

Everything we have should be treated so that it continues to bring happiness. That also applies to our parks. There is no harm in taking a day in 1-2 weeks to pay attention to the park. For more effective garden treatments, try doing the following 6 things.

1. Grass

Besides having to look neatly cut, the grass should be free of wild plants or weeds. The end of the rainy season like this time should be used to plant parts of the yard that are not completely covered with grass. If Japanese grass does not appear to thrive in the yard, it can be replaced with a type of grass that is easier to maintain, such as mini elephant grass.

2. Cutting plant roots when replacing pots

Soil plants in pots or plants must be replaced regularly at least 1 time every month. The pot must also be replaced according to the height of the plant. When moving the plant, cut a few main roots (in the middle of the plant) before replanting them.

3. Dry the plants in the room

Indoor plants make the atmosphere inside the house fresher. But plants in the room need to be dried under the sun directly regularly according to their needs.

4. Maintain plant shape
Plants planted on the ground are taller and taller than plants in pots. Plant branches need to be trimmed regularly so that the garden looks attractive and fun to see. Also clean plants from dried leaves. These dried leaves can be collected in plastic containers or holes to be used as compost.

5. Re-polishing garden furniture
Wooden benches and tables, as well as garden furniture from other woods must be cared for regularly because they continue to be exposed to heat and rain. Cover with anti-termite polish and re-furnish it to look shiny like new.

6. Check the water plant container

Pot or vessel of water plants need to be checked as often as possible to find out if there is a leak. If the pot has leaked, try patching or changing it with a new one. This needs to be done immediately so that the plant does not lack water, and prevents water from seeping everywhere.

7. Only use fertilizer if absolutely necessary
Chemical fertilizers can reduce soil fertility if used in the long run. Only use fertilizer when the plants look unhealthy, or just transferred to new planting media.… Read More
