What role does “color” play in a landscape plan?
Color's "role" in a landscape plan
Color is the most visible factor in a landscape. The average person barely notices how an outdoor space functions, but is usually very attracted to the color in the landscape. But, remember, color is only one element among many to be considered to create a balanced, harmonious and functional landscape. Use color in a disciplined and controlled fashion to strengthen, rather than disrupt, the general form and pattern of garden and street. Color can add visual excitement in the landscape, but if used improperly, it can create chaos.
