Living in an urban area or having a small backyard doesn’t mean you have to give up on creating a beautiful outdoor space. With thoughtful design and the right plants, you can maximize your outdoor area and create a welcoming oasis. Here are some tips for designing a landscape for small spaces:

  1. Plan Ahead:

Before you start designing your small landscape, take some time to plan. Consider your needs, your lifestyle, and the type of plants that will thrive in your space. Make a list of your must-haves and prioritize them.

  1. Create Zones:

Divide your outdoor space into different zones, such as a dining area, seating area, and a garden. This will make your space feel larger and more functional. Use furniture, lighting, and plants to define each zone.

  1. Choose the Right Plants:

When designing a landscape for small spaces, it’s important to choose the right plants. Look for plants that are small in size, have a narrow footprint, or can be trained to grow vertically. Consider using containers or raised beds to create a garden in a small space.

  1. Add Vertical Interest:

Vertical elements, such as trellises, walls, or hanging plants, can add visual interest and create a sense of height in a small landscape. These elements can also be used to provide privacy or define zones.

  1. Embrace Scale:

When choosing furniture, lighting, and other elements for your small landscape, keep scale in mind. Avoid oversized furniture or plants that will overpower your space. Instead, choose items that are proportional to your space.
