The Beauty and Simplicity of a Provencal Style Garden

By: Kim Charles

Karolina Dzięgielewska , a garden decorator from Poland , shares her thoughts with us behind the design concept of the Provencal expressive style .

" Beauty , simplicity , mundaneness , sleek material and a minimalist appreciation – these words describe the Provencal garden . innovative garden design can sometimes seem cold and uninviting . But , if you combine it with a free Provençal style , you will make a personalised and artful garden . The pattern of this garden was a beautiful challenge for us . I love the Provençal trend , both in the inside and in the gardens . Provence has it ’s own obligatory characteristic , so every detail trifle a unique role . A nidus on colors toy a large part in this design . We used smart colour on paving and path , and delicate bright colouring material for bloom ( primarily ashen and purplish ) . Such combinations blend utterly with gullible . We have chosen flora that will conjure up a wizardly atmospheric state in the garden – such as Turkish boxwood globe , lavender , hydrangeas , hornbeam hedges , and columnar yews that refer to cypresses in Provence . The central distributor point is the patio with its original leap , decorate with a sculpture of a lion in the chassis of a spout . On the patio , we also planted a large tree diagram – multiple stems -Carpinus . This garden grew day by day . In one week we embed a 5 - time high pine and eat up 1.5 meters of hedging . It was an amazing experience for us . The most important feature of the Provence stylus is the relaxed and cozy atmosphere of a country business firm . In this garden , you may baby-sit comfortably in a caning chair , take a cup of coffee , and just revel the moment ! sunshine ! "
