I found that many in here are focusing on Interior Design of their homes, but not much talk about exterior design of your lovely house.

Reason of starting this thread is to gather some landscaping information for learning from Q&A on ideas, concept and design for Malaysian. There are many information that I could found by googling but most of the readings and design are Western, very less of Asian or Malaysian in specific which I found not really applicable sometimes.

I think Landscaping needs more attention for homeowners especially If you are Landed property owner. I believe One of the many reason of having a landed house is the yard space for family activity. Those who have owned house with side yards or gardens should make use of the space as useful as possible.

To me, space outside the house, i.e side-yard, back-yard, front-yard, garden should be a place for family to enjoy and relax. I feels wasted if those space are left unutilized, because we pay every single inch of the property.

I hope I can get more support in this thread... while more of you will post in comment, photos and ideas.

If you are looking for some readings check out some of these that I found on web recently.

Most of the people life in urban house don't like garden. They just tiles up everyspace.

Hi Ozak,

Like that only people got semi-d, bungalow lot or big corner house can shre share because they got big compound. those intermediate lot normally all tile up....

If artificial grass then no issue. Can vacuum or wash and put car also

artificial grass so xpensive. i did a rough calculation for my future project..
my garden if all go fake grass need at least rm10k..
so, only fake for small area like porch.. money is big issue for ke

try this math: for 40mm grass
One roll size is 6.5 feet x 82 feet = 533 square feet

DIY Price for Le Grassi (40mm) is RM17 per square feet

Price for one roll = 533 sq ft x RM17 = RM9,061

My jungle land is about 50ft x 20ft. （+-）。 If shrink smaller also rmKKK

I got a court yard of size 7'×10' inside my house under renovation as shownf in the picture. Anyone  know  how  much it costs to turn  it  into a cool pond like the  latter picture? [attachmentid=3565788]

Nope. Sorry , have the first picture missing....here  you go...

yaya.. ppl always say tile up for easy washing outside, then can park car somemore...haha

Rather put car than use the space for family and kids.

But dont you guys agree if landscaping is more urbanist than rural... Urban ppl is the one will need to do landscaping bcos they live in concrete city, they need to have a garden at least at home for them self. Wherelese rural ppl already have nature landscape around them.
