Through My Eyes: One Brainy Backyard

Inspired by science and mathematics, the Garden of Cosmic Speculation in Scotland is a one-of-a-kind garden! Intelligently-designed sculptures, terraces, bridges, architectural structures, and sculptured landscapes make this 30-acre property truly breathtaking. Instead of flowers, you'll see that the focus is on shapes, illustrated by various monuments found throughout the grounds. The garden is located in Dumfries, and the owner, Charles Jencks, only opens it to the public once a year. If you happen to be in Dumfries when it's open, go! Otherwise, you may have to make a special trip! Beautiful gardens are all about landscaping. If you're looking for ideas for your own garden, take a look at some of the photos below...it's absolutely stunning!

#ROBINISM

Great design isn't always about symmetry, it's about balance.

Create equal but different visual interest on both sides of your space by playing with varying heights, weights, and quantities of your objects on opposing sides.
