The garden design focuses on ecological value, resilience, and the ability to thrive in specific environments, embracing the beauty of irregularity and fluidity. Plants are arranged in organic drifts or clusters that mimic nature. The project is designed to evolve spontaneously throughout the seasons, capturing the essence of growth, blooming, and decay.
In contrast, gardening inspired by abstract painting is more artistically driven, rooted in aesthetic, compositional, or emotional elements. It involves translating colors, shapes, and textures from abstract art into gardening, transforming the garden into a living canvas. Plants are chosen not for their ecological function but for their ability to reflect the dynamic qualities of art, with bold color bands or forms in stark contrast to one another.
The Rambunctious Garden celebrates change—both seasonal and emotional—drawing from the expressive depths of abstract art. By using plants that change color over time, such as foliage that shifts from green to red, the garden becomes a living landscape that reflects the fluid, ever-changing nature of artistic expression.
