Interview With Sajid Kagadi

Define ‘good landscaping’ and what benefits does it have on our wellbeing?

A well-designed building without any landscape reflects a sense of incompleteness. The environment in which we live affects our productivity levels. Landscape areas provide spaces where people can unwind, relax, socialize or exercise.

When we think of the word “Landscape”, palms, trees, shrubs, ground cover, lush green lawn, flowers come to our mind. Good landscaping around the house is an indicator of how well the home has been cared for. Landscapes should not just be planted to look beautiful, they should also serve multiple functions like creating habitat, creating microclimates, fixing nitrogen into the soil, cleaning the air, and producing food. When trees are planted and well maintained it can significantly absorb sound waves and reduce noise pollution.

Green spaces have psychological benefits and directly contribute to a person’s general wellbeing as a whole. In these green surroundings, usually, feelings of fear and anger are reduced and overall positive feelings increase. When trees are properly selected, and planted in the right direction, it results in lowering heating and cooling costs. A beautiful frontal area is always an added advantage as it gives you a cool and peaceful atmosphere. A well-maintained landscape also increases property value.

Does landscaping help to increase the value of your property? To what extent does good landscaping have an impact on the asset value?

A carefully planned landscape design using quality plant material not only reflects a work of art but it is also property investment. The benefits of landscaping can be maximized when certified landscape professionals are involved in all aspects including design, site preparations, plant selection, landscape lighting, installation and maintenance activities.
