Designing for Paws

Designing for Paws
Designing a user-friendly landscape for high-impact outdoor activity? Always take into account a finished product you can engage in rather than just view from a certain vantage point. All things considered, your household may encompass children and four-legged pets. Here’s an archived post from a few years back, Follow the Flow , which might shed some light on finding the ‘desire lines’ simply by following the natural flow. In short, let the paws do some of your work.  

Make it user-friendly if there’s high-impact activity (children and pets). What you welcome into your landscape determines how you eventually interact with its many facets.  In regards to the previous post, the dogs won out. Where there once was a section of a garden is now an orchard. Choosing the path of least resistance often makes the most design sense.
