This modern garden impresses with its clear, well thought-out lines and has been newly created. A multi-levelled fountain lends it additional charm and creates a relaxing atmosphere with its gentle rippling. The outdoor area was deliberately kept discreet in order to emphasise the impressive view.
A fountain to frame the garden
The two interconnected water basins create a natural transition between the concrete wall and the lawn. Local products were used for the materials and Bollinger sandstone was chosen. This was split into a single face and the edges were given a rustic finish to emphasise the natural look. In combination with the neighbouring raised bed, this creates a harmonious overall look. The planting of the raised bed with the discreet lamp cleaner grass and the delicate purple-flowering Patagonian verbena makes the garden blossom from July to October.
Gentle water feature
The gentle splashing of water in the garden creates a calming ambience and emphasises the natural beauty of the garden, while at the same time creating a harmonious connection with the plants and flowers.
Versatile planting concept
An apple tree and a pear tree enrich the garden's flora and enchant with their delicate light pink and white blossoms in spring. In summer and autumn, they provide the owners with fresh, aromatic fruit. These fruit trees are harmoniously complemented by red and blackcurrant bushes, which provide a vitamin-rich harvest in midsummer with their luscious berries. In addition, a white-flowering gooseberry bush brings not only decorative flowers but also tasty fruit to the garden. Together, these plants create a diverse and high-yielding fruit oasis that is both visually and culinary delightful.
The planting around the house was designed in various shades of purple, white and green, creating a calm atmosphere that invites you to relax. When selecting the flowering shrubs, care was taken to create a harmonious change of colour from spring to autumn, making the overall picture both gentle and lively.
Smart garden
Flowering plants delight garden lovers and create an idyllic atmosphere in the garden. In the first few years, however, plants require special care and attention in order to grow healthy and strong. That's why we have our partner GardenTec was involved in the project, integrating a modern irrigation and rainwater utilisation system into the garden design.
Rainwater is considered the ideal water for watering plants as it is soft and lime-free. In order to achieve perfect results for the lawn, robotic lawnmowers take over the lawn care in this reference garden. Regular, daily mowing fertilises the lawn in a natural way, which effectively prevents the formation of moss.
The advantages of a smart garden are not only the considerable time savings, but also the precise, needs-orientated watering of plants and lawns. Control via a user-friendly app allows resources to be optimally utilised and current weather forecasts to be included in the irrigation planning. In this way, a healthy and flourishing garden is maintained with minimal effort and the family also gains time.
Harmonious garden concept
The harmonious design of the outdoor area emphasises the natural beauty of the surroundings and allows you to enjoy the spectacular view undisturbed. High-quality materials and well-balanced planting complete the overall picture and transform the garden into an ideal retreat surrounded by nature.
