New Home But Hate The Garden?
5 Ways We Upgrade Our Clients Outdoor Space
Moving into a new home is a thrilling adventure. However, discovering that your new garden doesn't quite meet your expectations can be disheartening. At Sculpt Gardens, we understand the importance of a beautiful, functional outdoor space. Here are five ways we transform gardens into tranquil & tidy oases you’d be happy to have friends over.
Sculpt Gardens are an Auckland Landscape Design business that have designed thousands of gardens in Auckland, Matakana & surrounds.
1 / Create a Distinct Lawn with Edging
A well-defined lawn is the foundation of any stunning garden. We start by creating clear, distinct edges using timber, flexicurve edging, bricks or concrete edging to give your lawn a crisp, clean look. This not only enhances the visual appeal but also makes maintenance easier. The result is a manicured lawn that serves as the perfect canvas for the rest of your garden.
2 / Upgrade Pathways
Pathways are more than just functional; they’re a key design element in your garden. We upgrade your existing pathways with fresh pebbles and larger more modern 60cm x 60cm pavers, offering a modern, elegant touch. This not only improves the look of your garden but also makes it more accessible and enjoyable to walk through.
3 / Use Mass Planting to Unify the Garden
One of the most effective ways to create a cohesive garden design is through mass planting. In our Auckland landscape design, we strategically place groups of the same plant species throughout your garden to create harmony and visual unity. This approach ensures that your garden feels like a well-thought-out, integrated space rather than a collection of random plants. Here at Sculpt we often use Lomandra or Pittosporum balls repeatedly to bring rhythm and repetition throughout the garden.
4 / Remove Old Plants That Lack Shape, Structure, and Form
Old, overgrown plants and trees can make your garden look untidy and neglected. We carefully remove those that lack shape, structure, and form so that key feature trees can be seen and appreciated. This not only revitalizes your garden but also allows for better light and air circulation, promoting a healthier environment for your plants.
5 / Mulch Garden Beds
Mulching is essential for a healthy, low-maintenance garden. In our Auckland landscape design, we add a layer of high-quality mulch to your garden beds, which helps retain moisture, suppress weeds, and improve soil health. Mulch also gives your garden beds a neat, finished look, enhancing the overall aesthetic of your outdoor space.
