Over the next few weeks, we’re walking through the process I use when designing spaces for my clients. It’s all about acknowledging people, developing priorities, and setting parameters, and how to use those three things to design a space that’s actually designed around your life.
If you’ve ever looked at your garden and felt like something was off, or you couldn’t quite put your finger on why, or you’re not even sure where to begin, this series is for you.
In this episode, I cover:
- How defined parameters and a no list reduce decision fatigue, make plant shopping less overwhelming, and are what turn a collection of beautiful plants into a cohesive space with a real point of view
- Why the garden you’re imagining and the garden you end up with are often so different, and what’s actually standing in the way of having a garden that feels like you
- Why starting with plants and inspiration before doing the foundational thinking is where most gardens get stuck, and what to do instead
- Why we often forget to acknowledge our own needs in a garden, assume we’ll figure it out later, and end up with clutter piling up because the space isn’t actually serving how we live
- Why gardens are only as beautiful as they are maintained, and why most people don’t think about upkeep and ongoing care when they’re creating new spaces
