Demarcate the different areas of your garden!
If you don’t have a lot of space, it is all the more essential to demarcate the different areas of your garden. Exterior design is an art! Take a pencil and sketch out the different spaces you want to arrange by delimiting them. This will allow you to see more clearly the different possibilities available to you. It will be easier to know if the configuration of your garden allows you to create a relaxation area, a vegetable garden and a play area for children.
What are the tips for creating a small play area?
To save space and condense play areas, here are two tips:
-
Opt for versatile equipment : for example, a swing with a built-in slide or a picnic table that can be used as a play area.
-
Use vertical space : install wall shelves to store toys or climbing plants to create shade.
Can we still leave room for biodiversity?
These spaces can also be an educational space for children, who learn to understand nature and its mechanisms by observing it. Even in a small garden, it is important to dedicate a space to fauna and flora. A small tree or a few shrubs can house nesting boxes for birds, and at its foot you can place an insect hotel.
How to save space in a vegetable garden?
A vegetable garden is a great way to use your garden space wisely… but when space is limited, you obviously can’t plant just anything anywhere. Here are some tips for save space for your crops :
Opt for compact, fast-growing vegetables
Choose varieties of vegetables that are naturally smaller or grow quickly. Radishes, spinach, lettuces, small carrots, herbs and cherry tomatoes are excellent choices for small spaces.
Use verticality
Arrange vertical supports such as trellises, shelves, green walls or tomato cages to grow climbing vegetables like peas, beans, cucumbers, squash, and even tomatoes. This will save floor space.
Bet on smart containers
Use pots, planters, raised containers or even grow bags to optimize the use of space. You can place these containers on a balcony, a terrace, or even on a windowsill. You can also hang hanging pots or grow bags on hooks or rods to grow tall plants, such as strawberries or aromatic herbs.
Make interlayer
Use the intercropping technique by planting different crops side by side, so that they benefit from each other. For example, grow carrots with radishes, or lettuce with tomatoes.
How to create comfortable garden furniture on a small area?
Modular furniture is your friend! This practical furniture allows you to adjust the available space according to your needs. A sofa with removable sections and an extendable table will allow you to increase the available seating space when you have guests, and save space the rest of the time. Another tip: choose smart storage! Furniture that fits easily under the table, or better, with an integrated storage system, represents a significant space saving.
Make your privacy screens supports for your decorations!
Promiscuity is somewhat the enemy of small homes built in densely populated areas. Privacy screens can then be used around your garden furniture to create an intimate and welcoming atmosphere. But they can also serve as support for garden decorationslighting or planters.
