🌳 Geometry of Tranquility: Designing a Symmetrical Garden of Peace and Purpose

🍂 Autumn
Rake leaves and compost

Plant bulbs for spring

Protect delicate plants

❄️ Winter
Cover vulnerable roots

Clean pathways

Plan next year’s design

Poetic note: A garden lives in seasons—each one a stanza in its unfolding poem.

🌿 Cultural and Historical Inspirations
Symmetrical gardens have deep roots across cultures:

Islamic gardens: Designed as earthly paradises, with quadrants and water features.

French formal gardens: Grand, geometric layouts symbolizing control and refinement.

Japanese Zen gardens: Though asymmetrical in form, they evoke balance through placement and emptiness.

Your garden can draw from these traditions—or invent its own language.
