Proportionate Use of Colour in Landscape Design

Colour plays a crucial role in landscape design, as it can evoke specific moods and create visual interest. When incorporating colour into outdoor spaces, it is essential to maintain proportion and balance to ensure a harmonious overall aesthetic. By using a colour palette that complements the natural surroundings and the intended design style, designers can enhance the overall beauty of the landscape.

One effective approach is to use a combination of analogous colours, which are hues that sit next to each other on the colour wheel. This technique creates a sense of cohesion and unity in the design, making the space feel more inviting and visually appealing. Additionally, contrasting colours can be strategically introduced to create focal points and add depth to the landscape. The key is to strike a careful balance between different colours to prevent overwhelming the viewer and to ensure that the design remains visually pleasing.
