Piet Oudolf... Always an endless inspiration
to landscape designers and garden artists. His brilliant yet
sophisticated style of combining the structure of hedged shrubs/trees
with the looseness of grasses and perennials is a botanical art form.
When we are at a creative standstill of selecting a garden style to
compliment the architecture and landscape wishes of a client, Oudolf's
style is the perfect solution. Try working with a client that has a
French Provincial residence and desires a Japanese minimalist Zen
garden.
If you combine the structure that French Landscapes
have thrived on with the wild throws of ornamental grasses, minimal
perennials, and texture of ground cover all massed together in
waves..Voila! Throw in some modern groupings of various river stones set
in Cor Ten steel frames... and you've got one happy client.
