Garden design
A garden design arranges trees, flowers and other garden elements across the field. Some carpets depict a garden from above, with water channels dividing beds around a pool. Others, including the Bakhtiari kheshti example pictured here, place plants in repeated compartments. These are different ways of representing a garden.
