Front and back yard of the house! 120 beautiful landscape design ideas!
Walking through the streets of the private sector, you involuntarily pay attention to the design of courtyards. Especially attractive are the beautiful, tastefully decorated landscapes, near which you want to stay longer. Unusual compositions with artificial ponds, waterfalls, topiary elements, alpine slides and rockeries are interesting. Creating an extraordinary landscape in the yard requires work and knowledge of the basics of its design.
The yard is a part of the land plot adjacent to a private house. It is divided into a front, or front yard, and a back. The front yard is located between the facade of a residential building and a fence. It is open to everyone who wants to look over the fence, and is the calling card of the owners. For this reason, its design is treated with special scrupulousness.
The backyard is located behind the house and is hidden from prying eyes. A secluded place of rest is arranged here, outbuildings are placed, poultry and animals are kept.
The layout of the yard largely depends on the size of the plot and the needs of the family. But there are general principles of its improvement, which the majority adheres to. The list of objects located on the territory of the yard includes technical buildings and decorative elements of the landscape. The first of them are a necessity, since they provide comfort to the owners of the house, and the second are needed to meet their aesthetic needs.
The objects of technical significance include a garage, parking, a summer kitchen, a guest house, a gazebo, an aviary for a dog. A garage and a parking lot for vehicles are usually located just outside the gate, and other buildings are located in the depths, where the noise from the road does not reach and street dust does not penetrate. An aviary or doghouse is arranged in a remote corner, but not too far from the outer fence.
Objects of decorative significance are flower beds, reservoirs, deciduous and coniferous plantings, lawns, small architectural structures and so on. Their number depends on the area of the yard and such elements in most situations are located along fences and walls of outbuildings.
It is not customary to fill the space directly in front of the porch with vegetation – it should remain free for movement. Tiles or other paving are laid on the site at the entrance to the house.
A gazebo or canopy is a common thing for a front yard. They are surrounded by flower beds and climbing plants, and together make up a landscape composition.
If there is free space, you can complement the picture with any hydraulic structure: a waterfall, a fountain, an artificial pond. The proximity of water contributes to a special microclimate, especially desirable near a place of rest.
It is very popular to arrange a patio in front of the porch. Proximity to the front door to the house makes it possible to spend every free minute outdoors. Here you can have a cup of morning coffee, gather with your family for evening tea or have a secret chat with friends. A table and several chairs are installed on a small paved area – these are the most necessary items in the arrangement of the patio area. To create a cozy atmosphere, potted plants and transparent curtains are used, providing light shade, comfortable wicker furniture and sofa cushions.
There is a space between the house and the garden, which is used in two directions: for a garage with parking for a car and a place to relax. If there is enough space, you can do both by dividing with a hedge, a vertical green screen or a flower garden. At the same time, a garage with parking is located closer to the gate.
