A calm, contemporary Zen-inspired home garden designed and executed by Hug A Plant, bringing together architectural geometry, texture, and tropical greenery in perfect harmony.
This landscape transforms a narrow sideyard and entrance zone into a meditative green corridor — combining natural stone pathways, structured planting beds, and a sculptural Buddha feature wall that anchors the entire design.
The layout flows with clean symmetry, bordered by smooth grey walls and rustic terracotta cladding, softened by tropical plantings such as Calathea lutea, Heliconia, and Peace Lily.
The floating stepping-stone walkway, set over earthy brown pebbles, provides a subtle visual rhythm while maintaining functional access.
At the garden’s focal point stands a Buddha water feature, thoughtfully framed in black stone — evoking peace, balance, and reflection within the outdoor setting.
Compact planter boxes and linear beds along the home’s façade feature Calathea Lutea, offering vibrant pops of red-orange against white walls.
The overall space merges structure and stillness, creating an outdoor retreat that celebrates simplicity, texture, and tranquility.
