In the recent years, the quality of human life is improved by artificial intelligence techniques. In artificial intelligence, an expert system is a computer system that emulates the decision-making ability of a human expert.Expert systems are designed to solve complex problems by reasoning about knowledge, like an expert. In this paper, we propose an expert system with the aim of designing the garden with considering the different taste of the people. The proposed system can help people to design their garden themselves. Indeed, it is able to use by architectures to provide decision support system, interactive training tool and expert advice. The system constitutes part of intelligent system of designing the garden. An initial evaluation of the expert system was carried out and a positive feedback was received from the users.
