Boulder Placement

Boulder placement is a landscaping technique that involves strategically positioning large rocks or boulders in a landscape to create visual interest, define spaces, or serve functional purposes such as erosion control or retaining walls. This technique requires careful planning to ensure that the boulders complement the surrounding environment and are securely positioned. Boulder placement is often used in naturalistic or Japanese garden designs, where the rocks are integrated into the landscape to mimic natural formations. The size, shape, and color of the boulders are chosen to enhance the overall aesthetic and balance of the outdoor space. Proper placement also considers the weight distribution and stability of the boulders to prevent movement over time.
