Detailed explanation-1: -Balance in Landscape Design Balance is the concept of evenly distributing weight throughout the plan. Balance can be achieved with symmetry or asymmetry. Symmetrical balance (or formal balance) occurs when two sides of the landscape are identical mirror images of each other.
Detailed explanation-2: -Balance creates equality and cohesiveness. The two types of balance in the landscape are symmetrical and asymmetrical. Symmetrical balance means two sides of the landscape are identical. Asymmetrical balance means the landscape composition is balanced using different elements and objects with similar imaginary weights.
Detailed explanation-3: -Symmetrical balance just means that you mirror plants from one side of the garden to the other. Asymmetrical balance is when you determine the overall weight of the plants based on the size, color and branching density. Then, match the weight of each plant grouping on either side of a central point.
