Parallel Exhibit

Groupings of vertical parallel lines placed in their own well-defined space.

Usually more than one area of dominance in this type of design

Design by Mary O'Brien

Close Up 1

Verticals rising from groundwork that forms the base of the design

Close Up 2

Some plant material may extend over the edge of the container to soften the overall effect

Meadow Style design

Plant Material is arranged vertically in rows giving the impression of a flower meadow viewed at eye level.

The meadow style has evolved from the standard parallel design but differs in the use of visually lighter garden-like plant material.

 Design by Mary O'Brien

Side angle

Depth is an important feature and is achieved by the use of parallel layering.

Close Up

Rhythm is achieved by the repetitive use of colour and texture at different levels within the design.
