Modern architecture, complex lines, geometrically derived forms – that’s what characterizes this project. The owner of the site is an ambitious young man, who is not afraid of daring decisions. On the site we see two large buildings – a residential house and a garage with a holiday home. Both buildings have complex and unusual geometry. And the plot itself was not easy to build – a trapezoidal shape with a sharp angle. But the more complex the inputs, the more interesting the project is.
We had a difficult task to play with the narrow irregular space between the buildings, which are quite close to each other. There are level differences in the terrain, and a small birch grove. The peculiarities of the site and the architectural solution of the buildings led us to the idea of combining broken, clear geometric lines and smooth soft contours of landscape plantings with hills.
This project is a very graceful and harmonious symbiosis of two styles – modern minimalism with monopot plantings and a landscape English garden. The site is divided into several functional zones, as we move through them all the time, we get from one stylistic solution to another. They intertwine with each other, and logically and reasonably complement each other. Shapes of paths all the time make us a little change the trajectory of the movement through the garden, so moving forward we constantly change the view that we see in front of us – every 7-10 meters a new perspective, and it is impossible to predict what awaits us behind the next turn. These techniques are visually used to expand the space, and tiered plantings create perspective views that also distant the actual boundaries of the plot, and the garden seems larger than it really is.
