The purpose of this page is to suggest a few of the fundamental 
characteristics of the modern landscape design. As fashions change 
in other arts, so do styles change gradually in landscaping. The 
landscape plan that you might design yourself, or the plan on which 
our representative might lend his as' 
sistance, logically would divide the i .4 ^ 
property to be landscaped into three & i 
areas, commonly known as the public. JM MsSkf-M T / 
the private and the service area. 
PUBLIC AREA 
The landscaping of the public area 7? A ( '' 
is concerned with that part of the \' 
property ordinarily in front of the 
house, that part of the property I 
which is open to public view. The ft/*’®* 
simplest and usually the most artistic 
planting for that part of the grounds flrjjk L 
is a foundation planting of shrubs or 
evergreens about the house. Its pur* ‘*><£01. r>o 
pose is to dress up the home most ef' 
fectively for public view. Of course, 
a few shade trees usually are necessary 
for street and lawn planting. Possibly ¥A- <w , ~u ir

ornamental tree. A living Christmas tree planted near the 
house will add year-round beauty and provide a permanent 
tree for holiday decorations. 
The planning and planting of the service area are con' 
cerned with the location of the walks and drives, the garage, 
clothes drying area, the vegetable garden, children’s play' 
ground and similar spaces. Walks and drives will be arranged 
most advantageously so that the lawn will not be disfigured. 
Good vistas should be capitalized upon. The plan will call 
for the use of every square foot of ground most effectively. 
It is well to compute the cost of a lot on a square foot basis 
to lend appreciation to the importance of making the best 
possible use of every bit of space.
