ELEMENTS & PRINCIPLES OF LANDSCAPE DESIGN
ELEMENTS OF LANDSCAPE DESIGN The directly observable components, ingredients, and physical characteristics of a design.
ELEMENTS OF LANDSCAPE DESIGN Line Pattern Form Size Space Texture Color
LINE The visual pathway that directs eye movement through a composition • Distance between two points
LINE DIRECTIONS: Vertical lines—stress height and suggest power and strength Horizontal lines—stress width and are peaceful and calm, provide a sense of stability Diagonal line—dynamically energetic, causing more eye movement, use sparingly. Curved line—suggest motion, but are softer, more comforting.

FORM the shape or configuration of an individual component of the composition. The overall, three-dimensional, geometric shape or configuration of a floral composition.

PRINCIPLES OF LANDSCAPE DESIGN Principles of design-fundamental guidelines to aesthetic design that govern the organization of the elements and materials in accordance with the laws of nature.
PRINCIPLES OF LANDSCAPE DESIGN Balance Variation Proportion Simplicity Scale Rhythm Focal Area Repetition Opposition Transition Unity
BALANCE gives a sense of equilibrium and repose, a feeling of three-dimensional stability. Symmetrical balance—known as formal balance, forms are repeated on opposite sides of the design. Using an imaginary central axis, one side of the design is the mirror image of the other. Asymmetrical balance—known as informal balance. Formed by placing unequal visual weight on each side of a central vertical axis.
