Echo Your Home’s Lines and Shapes

The most successful landscaping services begin by analyzing the geometry of the residence. If you have a modern home with sharp angles, lean toward structured hedges and linear stone paths. Conversely, a Victorian or cottage-style home flourishes with soft, winding garden beds and overflowing perennials that mirror its romantic, intricate architectural details.

Coordinate Your Material Palette

Your landscape design should feel like it was built at the same time as your home. We recommend using hardscape materials that repeat the textures found on your exterior. If your home features prominent brickwork, incorporating matching brick accents in your walkways or retaining walls creates an immediate, intentional visual link that boosts property value.

Use Color Theory to Create Harmony

Color choice is a vital pillar of professional yard design. You can choose to complement your home’s trim color with similar floral hues for a monochromatic, sophisticated look, or use high-contrast plants to make a neutral exterior pop. At 4th Generation Landscaping, we help select a palette that shines through every season.

Scale and Proportion Matter

A small ranch-style home can be overwhelmed by massive oak trees, while a three-story estate may look unfinished with only low-lying shrubs. Our design process ensures that the scale of your plant life matches the height and mass of your building. Proper scaling creates a balanced, grand entrance that defines elite curb appeal.
