Movement in a garden refers to the use of different shapes or plantings to nudge you and your view from place to place in the garden. The use of a series of focal points can create movement in a garden. Also, the shape of a garden room or area can have meaning. A narrow room ushers you through quickly, even more so if it has vertical structures that become taller as you walk through. A broader room gives you the chance to stroll and meander. A round or square area is restful, serving as a stopping point for body and soul.
