Contemporary garden design can mean different things to different people. The dictionary states that it is ‘ belonging to the same time’. So lets take that as ‘the now’.
Materials used in the garden design can be the latest plastic, glass or metal finish, but also the use of timber and stone cut and shaped in a modern style.
The impression will be of a garden with minimal maintenance and of a limited palette of colours and plants. If we look back at the ancient gardens of the Far East we can also see the same approach. However, today we often see a lack of detail and this is what sets us apart from the ageless beauty of the Orient.
