                              F you were to ask 100 artists to paint the same view of a street scene,
                           Iwould any two of the paintings be the same? It is doubtful. Each artist
                           views the scene differently. The colors they use would vary. Their brush
                           strokes would differ. Even the painting style (modern art, impressionist,
                           etc.) would differ. Is it possible then that all 100 of the paintings would
                           be attractive? Of course, it would be possible.
                              The same holds true in designing the landscape. Each landscape
                           design project has multiple solutions to the design. As you design your
                           landscapes, do not worry about the design being perfect. Follow the
                           guidelines in this book and do your best to provide a functional and
                           attractive landscape plan for the homeowner.
