Villa courtyard design explains the main points.
1, the choice of courtyard landscape design style There are many different styles in the courtyard, and the basic style is generally determined according to the preferences of the owners. Courtyard styles can be simply divided into two categories: regular style and natural style. Nowadays, private courtyards can be divided into four schools: Asian Chinese, Japanese, European French and English. However, there are various styles and types of architecture, such as the gap between classical and modern, the contrast between avant-garde and tradition, and the difference between East and West. The usual practice is to roughly determine the type of courtyard according to the style of the building. In the past, the miscellaneous wood garden-style courtyards and tea farms of typical Japanese courtyards often integrated natural scenery into the courtyards, giving people a sense of elegance and tranquility. However, it is difficult to unify Japanese-style courtyards with western-style buildings, and Japanese-style buildings are also incompatible with regular courtyards. We should consider the coordination between courtyard landscape design style and architecture. Courtyard color is also one of the factors that affect the design style of courtyard landscape. One skill of color planning is to determine the main color of the courtyard according to the building color and surrounding environment. Leaf-viewing plants are very important in landscape design. In European countries such as Britain, it is natural to plant some foliage plants in flower beds. Leaf-watching plants with white spots embedded in green are more vivid than pure green plants, such as snow Ye Lian with silver leaves and wormwood with morning mist, which can set off the flower beds more brightly. Other colorful plants with orange, red and purple leaves can form a strong contrast and increase the brightness and pleasure of colors. In addition, the change of leaf shape and the difference of texture can also be considered. Summer is a season with a wide variety of flowering plants. Therefore, wild perennial grass flowers can be used to decorate diverse colors. In summer, even if you use a variety of color combinations with high brightness, you won't feel messy. For example, colorful snapdragon with different colors can be made into a number of lively color blocks, during which some silver-leaf plants or white snowballs can be dotted to neutralize them.
2. Influence of courtyard drainage and lighting conditions Drainage, lighting, ventilation and soil quality will affect the growth and development of plants, especially whether the light is sufficient is an important condition to determine which flowers can be planted. Generally speaking, it is ideal to build the garden in a place with good lighting conditions and facing south, so we must first understand the geographical conditions of the villa courtyard, such as the sunshine time in a day, the treatment of the shady and sunny surfaces, etc. On this basis, plant species suitable for these environments are selected. And shady places can also be used for courtyard landscape design, such as shady gardens for viewing.
3. The needs of family members The style of quadrangles can also reflect the lifestyle of families living here. Families with only two working couples often only plant flowers or perennial flowers in the yard because they have no time to maintain flowers and plants; Courtyards with young children should be paved with lawns, toys can be placed, and some colorful annual and biennial flowers and bulbous plants should be planted; If someone in the family is interested in plant conservation and management, they can plant some seasonal flowers to create a perfect ornamental garden. In a word, the landscape style and plant species should be selected according to family composition and age structure.
4. A larger courtyard can choose a wider range of courtyard landscape styles, because the larger the area, the more kinds of plants can be selected, and the collocation method can be more complicated, but the overall consistency must be considered when planting to avoid conflicts. However, the usable area of small houses is limited, so there should be a careful configuration plan and less plants. However, regardless of the size of the courtyard, the pavement of the road is essential. The general courtyard can be paved with natural stone or various tiles and black and white pebbles. The layout of the courtyard is very important. People who advocate simplicity can plant some flowers and plants in the courtyard or make a green nursery. If you want to achieve a more ideal landscape effect, many people will ask professional designers to design and produce courtyards and make a unique courtyard landscape design style. For example, the use of tall trees with winding paths makes people feel "deep in the courtyard"; The use of curved arches, carved railings, cylindrical scrolls and carefully trimmed bushes will vividly reproduce the European style.
Description of European Villa courtyard design
Description of the design features of European villas: the European courtyard is represented by French and Italian designs, which divides the path, forest vagina and water features of the whole courtyard into many parts, and changes the landscape height with long steps to make the courtyard harmonious as a whole; In details, such as the shape of columns, the carving of railings, the collocation of vegetation, etc., the materials and colors echo their own buildings, which are solemn and majestic and contain rich imagination.
Description of plant design in small courtyard of European villa: The center of the courtyard is basically trimmed with low shrubs and ground, and the plants planted in flower beds are as simple as possible. This design has the beauty of broken lines and curves at the same time, which is beautiful and generous. Trimmed shrubs and memorial fountains are also the main elements of this European courtyard.
Plant design plays an extremely important role in the landscape construction of European villas. In terms of plant configuration, a variety of plants are selected, and the four seasons, color matching and different spatial layering of plants are fully considered. If there are steps, decorate them with potted plants and make good use of every inch of space; There is a path in the middle of the intricate green belt, as if walking into the jungle. Walking along the path to the end is the feeling of a castle. The deep entrance path and the steps at least one story high look very noble. The small trees on both sides were trimmed into the shape of a "winding mountain" road, which matched their style just right. Vines climb on the stone steps, the higher they are, the denser they are, and there is an alternative style that is sparsely populated.
Description of color pattern design of small courtyard of European villa: European courtyard rarely uses color. Garden trees are mostly limited to leaves, shrubs and trees. Even if the flower beds are slightly colored, they are strictly controlled. Flowers and plants are also very scarce. Boxwood is planted around each flower bed, and only flowers of the same single color are planted inside. However, there are more colors in the garden. For example, some roses can be neatly dotted in flower beds full of ornamental plants and herbs to add bright colors.
Although different countries have different customs in European style, for example, the styles of France and Italy are different, in fact, many small courtyards of French villas adopt geometric design styles that Italians like, and it is enough to achieve similar effects in the relatively limited space of contemporary courtyards.
Description of small courtyard floor design of European villa: Grasping the characteristics of courtyard design floor of European villa, other forms will have a stronger static feeling. Such as square, circle and hexagon, symmetrical shapes will cause a sense of movement and form a quiet atmosphere. It works well when laying some leisure areas. Usually, a straight line perpendicular to your line of sight can enhance the sense of direction of space, while a straight line crossing your line of sight horizontally can enhance the sense of openness of space; Based on the parallel form (such as residential floor) and some bricks or tiles paved in a straight line, the ground will produce an elongated or perspective effect; Concentric patterns, arranged in the center of the ground or square, will produce a strong visual landscape effect.
Matters needing attention of villa courtyard design
1, which determines the courtyard style. Like architecture, courtyards have different styles. First, we should establish our favorite style. The style of the courtyard can be simply divided into two categories: regular and natural, and then the garden type can be roughly determined according to whether the building is western, Chinese or Japanese. In the past, typical Japanese courtyards, such as Zamu Garden Courtyard and Tea Pavilion, were integrated with natural scenery. However, Japanese-style courtyards are not commensurate with western-style buildings, and Japanese-style buildings are also incompatible with regular courtyards. In a word, it is important to consider the coordination between gardens and buildings.
2. When you are in courtyard design, whether you are a professional or a garden owner, there are several tasks that must be done first. One is to understand the function of the courtyard and divide the courtyard reasonably according to the situation. Such as family structure, whether there are old people and children, and whether it is necessary to design special activity spaces for children and old people; Do you have any pets at home? Do you want to build a house for them? How many parking spaces are needed at home and so on. The more detailed the situation, the better the design can be. Second, we should carefully observe the surrounding environment and the courtyard itself. For example, the overall environment of the community, the interior decoration style, the area and orientation of the courtyard, the soil situation, the location of groundwater and electric pipe network. The design of the courtyard should not only be in harmony with the overall environment of the community, but also match the interior decoration style, and rationally arrange plants according to the terrain and microclimate. The third is to determine the expected investment and make a reasonable budget according to the investment to achieve the best greening effect. The fourth is to determine the design style, and choose the preferred plants and landscape materials under the premise of unified style, so that the courtyard will be in good order and will not become a "flower warehouse". Especially plants will grow up. This statement seems to be well known, but many owners who have just owned private land are bent on pursuing rich plant materials, ignoring this point when sowing. Too dense planting not only hinders the growth of flowers and plants, but also affects the appearance.
3. In Feng Shui, the road can also be regarded as water, which is a metaphor for the road. Water can be traced back to ancient times. In ancient times, Miyagi buildings often built protective cities to play the role of defensive guards. "For the villa, you must not be in the direction of the road. In this case, the airflow is very strong and it is not easy to get together. The road surface should also be smooth, without potholes and damage; The road traffic in front of the door should be smooth and not too crowded; Don't drive too fast, it's easy to take away gas. There is a winding road in front of the house, called "jade belt around the waist".
4. There are generally two ways to add color to concrete: one is to splash paint on the concrete pavement, and the other is to mix paint before pouring concrete. The choice of the actual color is a little heavier than you think, because long-term direct sunlight will make it fade. For the existing concrete floor, the required color can be obtained by mixing chemical fuels. Dyed concrete is a durable floor material, which can cater to various designs.
Editor's summary: the courtyard doesn't have to be big, the gardening doesn't have to be fine, and there is no difference between plants. It's important to have a "spiritual walk" place. More importantly, we work in our own yard. Use any posture you like to exist in the arrogant space, do not deliberately seek anything, just want to listen to the heartbeat that has been covered up by the noisy world for a long time. Courtyard has changed our attitude towards life and brought about subtle harmony in family relations.
