In previous articles we looked at ways in which to expand the garden border without affecting the fences. They are based on landscape and visual effects trickery. We introduced you to three ways. Today we consider the rest.

Method one: relief
You may be surprised, but the relief will also affect the visual perception of the garden plot. If you stand in a deep pit or on a hill, your experience will be different. In the pit area will seem much smaller. The same applies to your site. To raise its level, you need to invest a lot of funds. Even if he is a few tens of centimeters dominates the gardens, which are located in the neighborhood, he would have to look anymore. Moreover, it is visually more spacious than the portions with identical area.
This rule affects only those a lot, but some of its elements. For example, if the lake has sharp slopes, it will appear smaller than it actually is. With regard to the gentle slopes, it will look visually larger. Note that the high perimeter fence has the same effect as the slopes of a deep ditch. In other words, in terms of visual perception are identical.
Method two: the environment
We continue the conversation on the subject of the relief. It should also be noted that dominates the garden will appear visually above, as you view the entire district. In landscape architecture practice to include the surrounding objects in the garden composition.
If from your garden you see the distance, you add these open spaces to their possessions, increasing their space on a subconscious level. If no view on the field, do not worry with your site. Surely, you have the opportunity to contemplate the apple tree that grows on the neighboring plot or tree on the road. Do not separate them from the garden fence, under which are perennials. This fence will cut off your territory from the environment. Moreover, it will draw attention to the borders.
You need to make someone else's apple tree or forest became a part of your space. Even if the fence or part of visible space in any case will be wider. Fencing will not share space, but hint at the border. If we talk about the environment, it should also be noted on the restriction of a fence. An alternative to the latter can be molded hedges.
If the fence will serve a blank wall, you may find that you are in a box. Once the size of the hedge will vary, garden immediately begin to play in a new way. With regard to the fence, it also will be able to beat, if you make changes to the settings. Thus it is possible to expand the boundaries of the garden.
Special attention should be paid to the mold used. If you've ever been in a narrow hallway, the walls of which are covered with wallpaper with vertical stripes, most likely, you were able to notice that the room seemed not only close, but higher. This also applies to the garden plot: if on the side of its sides vertical to place cypress hedges and graceful, it visually narrows and will be extended. These are appropriate for planting gardens with a large area: lane flanked by cypress trees, is already visually.
Imagine a path around which grow vertically arborvitae varieties and an identical path, lined stunted shrubs. In the case of vertical objects it will seem already visually. As for the low plant, the path will match the true settings.
Method three: the angle of view
The angle of view is vertical and horizontal. Visually change the space area plays an important role the horizontal angle. I would like to remind you that the person he is 28 degrees. For example, if situated on the bench before long flower bed, is visible is the part which enters into said corner.
Your task is to create a composition that will be fully incorporated into the angle of view. If you want to focus on isolation and self-sufficiency of a particular composition, you have to demonstrate it immediately. This means that it will have to fit completely into both the angle of view.
If the task is to draw attention to the infinity object, it is important that part did not get into any angle. When massive objects in the form of a lawn and the lake do not fit into one corner, it is surprising. Their area are considered fully, and they are perceived pieces. Should they act beyond the angle of how their area may seem visually larger.
Method Four: structure
Perhaps you had to watch as space becomes visually more spacious when it hosts the carpet or table circular shape. Round objects really advantageous to look in the room. The thing is that the range of visually expands the space. The effect is most noticeable when a light circle.
As you may have guessed, lawn or pond round shape can expand the space of the garden plot. As for the square and rectangular objects, they, on the contrary, emphasize the border. If you break this parallelism, garden markedly transformed. You will be able to make a reality of any design ideas, which means that it will be more original.
Do not forget to use circles or spherical objects in tight spaces. To this end, suitable plants, wrought iron curved items, sculptures and so on.
In order not to clutter the space, design time, use the maximum lines that are parallel to the short side. But those that are parallel to the long side should be a minimum.
If you have decided to expand the narrow space gardening area, remember that sometimes it is able to visually reduce the open space, which have an impressive area. Lawn, pond and other objects may appear smaller if they are supplemented by foreign elements. We are talking about the bridge, flower beds, islands. However, this does not mean that you should shun such details, all should be in moderation. If you expand the wrong site in one place, it can be reduced in another. In conclusion I would like to remind you that the garden should surprise their chaotic, but at the same time harmonious arrangement of objects
