The Italian style – is a variety of regular style. This is a small garden near a country house or a park surrounded by wall or a cut green hedge. The surface of the Italian garden (just as the regular) is divided into simple geometrical forms by diagonal and direct paths. Often there is a reservoir or a fountain in the center of the composition, surrounded by flower beds or a paved platform. Beds and reservoirs are made in formal style (a circle, an oval, or square).
A raised on some steps patio adjoining to the house, is a characteristic element of the Italian court yard. On this terrace are placed garden furniture, flowerpots with flowers and sculptures. By the way, sculpture is an integral attribute of the Italian style. Sculptural registration of fountains, grottoes, flower beds, avenues gives to the Italian gardens strong emotional feeling. Trees and bushes in the Italian parks are usually cut in the form of a cube or a sphere.
