The size of a garden does not influence its art advantages. Therefore it is not necessary to worry, if it seems to you that your garden is not big enough, or on the contrary, is too big. But, thinking over the general composition of the garden or planning its separate sites, it is necessary to remember that all its parts have to be proportional to each other and to the whole garden, to structures and landings. The modern architecture of a country house is more often eclectic, and the manor itself seldom corresponds to any historical period. As a rule, the garden lay-out is combined. The representation zone of smart entrance and near the house can be quite often made in regular style, but further the manor is almost always made out in a free, landscape lay-out. And therefore before to start to work, it is necessary to define, which water device will mostly suit your garden style.
If the architecture of the house and the decoration of surrounding space is made in classical style, and in furnish it is a lot of stone, it will be most pertinent to organize a formal pool with a fountain, a channel that effectively cuts the beautiful pavement or a wall fountain in the South European style. If the house is executed in Europe tradition or is similar to country style, it is most logical to build a natural pond, as in the nature, or stream but a rough one. By the way, from all possible variants of water devices «the natural" pond and stream in the overwhelming majority of cases are suitable for any court yard. Besides a pond executed as a natural reservoir in which grow and live various water plants, small fishes, predatory bugs and plankton, frogs and tritons, needs less care than other ponds. It perfectly enters in any landscape, and looks pertinently everywhere.
