A residence can have a beautiful formally hedged front yard with a sculptural stone entry cairn and then have a relaxed curved stone walled backyard with fire pit. This large landscape uses stone as a major material for the design however the use of mixed soft planting allow this landscape to be relaxing and functional. It amazingly is very low maintenance with the lawn mowing the major job. This country residence allows this family to enjoy the beautiful and varied spaces without having to put in the time keep the garden looking good.
