What is a Softscape?

There are many elements involved in creating beautiful, versatile landscaping designs. One of the most crucial elements of this equation is a softscape. Softscapes refer to the planting beds and plant materials utilized in landscaping. They consist of various horticultural materials arranged in complementary configurations to create balance and harmony in the overall landscape.

A softscape’s geometrical or asymmetrical elements are often showcased to create a natural rhythm and bring life into the design, while adding visual interest and creating patterns.
