The site is visually divided into two parts: ornamental plants, along with stones, are located in the central zone, and the secondary part remains untouched. Particular attention is paid to the location of the boulders, symbolizing constancy, power and strength. There shouldn't be many of them. The main stone is considered the center of the Japanese garden, regardless of its location on the site. An asymmetric composition of stones is built around it, as close as possible to the conditions of natural nature.
Step 2
An integral attribute of the Japanese style is water - the source of life, therefore, in the arrangement of landscape design, the presence of a fountain, stream or pond is mandatory. An alternative option is possible - the creation of a "dry spring" of sand, pebbles and gravel, personifying the energy of a living source.
Step 3
The design of the garden of the Land of the Rising Sun is dominated by laconic plants, the characteristic features of which are green shades. As for the area, the Japanese style will suit both a large plot and a tiny garden, thanks to the unique aesthetics and harmony of the culture of the East.
