- Plants
An attractive garden can distinguish your home and add value, providing a serene space where family can gather for relaxation.
Plants are an integral component of landscape design and bring life and color into outdoor spaces.

Plants add movement to landscape designs through various techniques such as contrasting, transition and focalization. Contrasting involves using elements with differing sizes or colors to attract the eye and form an attention-grabber; transition means making gradual adjustments to size, shape or texture design elements to avoid sudden shifts that look unnatural; focalization stands out by drawing attention specifically to one element from within a design element's surroundings and drawing the focus away from others in a landscape design; finally focalization draws focus and makes an element stand out in isolation from all others around it; contrast with elements with different sizes or colors to draw the eye and make a focalization; transition means making gradual adjustments with size, shape or texture changes among design elements to draw attention and draw focus from surrounding design elements in order to create focalization; focalization draws the eye as one element stands out among all others in landscape designs by emphasizing one particular element compared with all others while at once drawing out and drawing it out from its surroundings and drawing attention thereby drawing and drawing our eyes toward it and makes one element pop out among its surroundings by drawing attention and drawing attention toward it while doing this way drawing and draw the eye in this manner creating focalization which draws eyes attention while emphasizing one design element out from its surroundings and makes it stand out among its surroundings while focalization creates this technique highlights only one design element that stands out in this way from another when done properly done correctly highlighting an element out from another aspect highlighting another (this can happen either visually creating focalization technique does this effect resulting from its surroundings by making one stand out in contrast from all.
