LANDSCAPE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION
 

What is landscape design?

Landscape design is an independent profession that combines design elements with artistry. Landscape designers will skillfully combine nature with culture to create an impressive outdoor space that is suitable for its intended use.

 

1. Benefits of landscape design and landscape construction

A good landscape architect will be someone who knows how to create, arrange, and arrange green construction materials and shapes into architectural works of houses, gardens, urban areas, and apartments. A well-done landscape design not only increases the aesthetics of the house but also increases the usable area of space. Having a thoughtfully designed outdoor landscape will increase the value of your home. Landscape designers will turn customers' dreams into reality in life.

 

 

2. Principles of green landscape design

The design and construction of a beautiful garden of an area such as a garden, residential campus, etc. has a specific principle. This principle helps architects calculate and adjust landscape details appropriately. So how to coordinate architectural pieces, trees, construction time, and surrounding area landscape? Here are some suggestions for you:

• Consistency

The consistent and orderly repetition of elements such as type, size, height, texture, and color of groups of plants, trees, stones, or decorative objects in the design. garden work. This consistency helps create a certain style and theme for each design.

 

 

• Simplicity

Currently, simplicity is applied quite a lot in designs to highlight the landscape. Design architects will often optimize decorative materials to help viewers focus more on what they feel is most important in that designed area.

• Natural transition

This principle is often applied by architects to avoid sudden or too rapid changes in the landscape. Accordingly, ensuring the change of landscapes in the design space takes place gradually and consistently.

• Aesthetic factors, color combination

Normally, there are 3 basic types of color schemes in design that every design architect must know, including monochrome color schemes, contrasting color schemes, and similar color schemes. Each architect will have many ways to apply colors to suit the customer's preferences and feng shui.

• Refining every line

In garden landscapes, designers need to pay attention to the lines in the landscape. These lines are often created from the arrangement of layers in the vegetation. Sometimes, landscape lines are also expressed in the arrangement of heights and branches of trees in the garden landscape.

• Symmetry

One principle that designers also pay quite a lot of attention to is balance. This principle comes from how elements in the landscape relate to each other. This depends on the location, intensity of use, and energy that those elements bring to the viewer.

• Shape of objects used

Objects that need attention in terms of shape in the garden landscape are tree shapes, fish ponds, mountains, southern islands, etc. These shapes form the overall space of the project. Each shape of an object has a great influence on the entire landscape. For architecture such as urban landscapes, many shapes and objects will be needed to make the urban ecosystem more diverse.

• Texture, size ratio of things

When designing and constructing landscapes, architects need to pay attention to the structure and size ratio of objects used in the landscape. Because everything on the design is an estimate. For the landscape to be harmonious, architects need to pay attention to proportion when designing. To avoid the situation where the landscape loses harmony because the sizes of objects are not proportional to each other.

• Calculate movement and perspective

Each person will have a different perspective and assessment. To limit the difference in assessment through viewing angles when moving, garden designers need a balanced layout. Architects should create light on all sides. Because the viewing point will depend on the lighting of each person's position. People often see objects more clearly when facing light and vice versa. At the same time, designers must also consider the proportions of objects to maintain symmetry.

 

 

 

3. Time to construct green landscape

So what is the appropriate time for construction? Let's explore the article below:

3.1 Landscape construction at the final stage of the project

• Advantages: At this time, the construction work is relatively complete and the drawings of the landscape design and the ground for planting are less affected by other items. Therefore, the construction will not affect the growth of plants, helping to ensure the progress of the project. In particular, the construction process will also take place quickly. Investors can also reduce costs for that landscape item.
• Disadvantages: For shade trees, when first constructed, the trees may have very few or no leaves, making the landscape not as beautiful as desired. In addition, you cannot guarantee whether the tree will live or not, in case a tree dies, it will affect the overall landscape of the project.

3.2 Construction of green landscape in stages

For a large project, designing the garden landscape in regular stages will optimize costs and shorten construction time.

• Advantages: Most plants and grass items have developed well when put into construction. Therefore, the landscape will be more beautiful than when newly constructed.
• Disadvantages: Trees and grass need care and protection to grow well. However, parallel construction with construction items affects the growth, development, and survival of trees. Since then, the cost of landscape items has also increased due to extended construction time and the cost of overcoming dead tree problems.

 

4. Beautiful landscape design process of TV landscape design company

4.1. Receive requests and survey the green landscape

After receiving phone calls or requests to participate in bidding from investors, we will receive customer information about green landscape design & construction, exchange, and refer to the list of contractors. type tree. After that, staff will come to the construction site to understand the current status of the site and check the following factors:

• Progress of other construction units and ability to return landscaped grounds.
• How is the soil quality in that area? (PH, fertility, flooding,...)
• Does the construction work include items located on balconies or rooftops?
• Plan for transporting soil, materials, and volume of soil dumping.
• Location for gathering landscape construction materials.
• What is the water source and irrigation system for construction projects? (Where does the water come from, how to install the piping system,...)
• Learn carefully about labor safety issues when performing green landscape construction at construction sites.
• Check whether the type of tree is suitable for the soil of the project and suggest a replacement tree in case the original tree is not suitable.

 

4.2. Send bid quotes and landscape design consultation

The green landscape construction company will send you a detailed quote. After that, we will send you a detailed landscape design quotation including:

• Quotation letter for garden landscape design and construction
• Preliminary concept (if any)

 

4.3. Develop green landscape design and construction plans

Construction units often divide projects into two different groups, including independent projects and projects located inside a large project.

Independent project: In other words, in that project, there are no other items under construction but only one landscape construction unit is performing it. Usually, these projects have been completed before and want to add additional landscape items or repair the degraded landscape. The construction plan will have a specific start date and end date. For this type of project, building a construction plan will be done most simply and accurately.
The project is located inside a large project: It means that this project is being constructed with all items from construction, landscaping, electricity, and water. Unlike the above type of construction, planning the construction of this type is very difficult because it is affected by the progress of other items. Therefore, to build a construction progress plan, it is necessary to have the combination of all contractors committed to implementing on schedule.

4.4. Deploy personnel and prepare premises
​Based on the workload, you will need to prepare adequate human resources to meet the needs of progress and quality of the project.

• Receive the construction site from the construction unit and carry out the necessary work to prepare for planting trees.
• Handle the problem of slope and drainage capacity of the construction area.
• Check all issues such as electricity, irrigation water, and staff to ensure good response before planting trees.
• Prepare safety documents for employees performing construction at the project.
• Prepare a staff organizational chart and decide to appoint a commander for the construction project's executive committee.

 

4.5. Carry out green landscape construction

• Site acceptance: The construction unit will repair the site, and then notify the supervision consultant to inspect and accept the site.

• Pour soil for planting for construction projects that require additional soil.

• Based on the drawing board, locate the place to plant trees and dig holes. The size of the hole will depend on the type and size of the tree agreed in the contract. After that, carry out acceptance of the hole-digging work.

• Gather seedlings according to standard sizes in the contract, and conduct acceptance of plant inputs.

• Planting trees: Mix fertilizer mixture with soil from the hole, put the seedling in the middle, and cover with the mixed mixture. When ½ of the hole is filled, water the seedling thoroughly and continue filling. Then, fix the tree with a tree to ensure that the tree does not tilt or lose its roots due to external factors.

• Proceed to plant ornamental flowers and bushes: Determine the location to plant the plants, mix the fertilizer mixture, and plant according to the standards and density specified in the contract. Planted flower plants must be lush and uniform.

• Planting lawns: Depending on the requirements for planting carpets or planting in clusters, construction units will have different methods of planting trees.

• Carpet planting: This type is often used for pig hair grass or Japanese velvet grass. Carpet grass with a size of 0.5 x 1 m, is fertilized before planting, paying attention to spreading the grass tightly without leaving a gap greater than 5mm.

• Planting in clusters: This form is used for grasses such as Japanese velvet grass, pig hair grass, ginger leaf grass, peanut grass, orchid grass, Thai ginger leaf grass, and Astragalus grass. The planting density must be uniform, then spread a layer of fertilizer to keep it moist and water thoroughly so the grass can adhere to the soil.

 

4.6. General cleaning of premises
After constructing each stage, you need to conduct a general cleaning, throw away items such as bags, ropes, and excess grass, and sweep away soil and fertilizer mixture in the construction area.

4.7. Landscape care and maintenance

• Correcting errors during the landscape design and construction process, Lasc replaces weak or dead trees.
• Take care to water the plant every day to ensure it does not dry out or become waterlogged.
• Fertilize trees periodically during the warranty period.
• Remove weeds to ensure they do not grow and cause an unsightly appearance.
• Carry out pesticide spraying and regular care.
• Replace dead plants within the warranty period.

Replant trees that are tilted or crooked due to outside influences.
