Stephen decided that an EP Henry Coventry Garden Wall in Autumn Blend would be the best choice for the overall design of the project. To accomplish this, Stephen and his team precisely cut and level out the wall blocks on a crushed stone base. In the initial layout, the side entranceway was too small and very difficult to walk through.Ī natural flowing, easier accessible walk was the solution. Stephen, owner of Lisk Landscape Management however, softened the look by offering a short herringbone pattern sidewalk leading to the steps and then curving the Hardscape, that is, rocks, bricks, pavers, etc., often have a very linear effect. The steps give this small home a sense of sophistication - a real nice touch. The brick walkway and retaining wall below extend the front yard landscaping around the side of the house.

The tumbled look of the block gives off a natural aged/rustic look. Stephen uses Autumn Blend in particular to match the existing brick steps. Stephen decided to use EP Henry Coventry Brickstone in the color of Autumn Blend with matching Autumn Blend Edgestone to prevent mulch from eroding on the sidewalk. The rock edging gives the landscaping visual stability while the plant selection and colors give it real appeal.

This adds lots of interest and the design complements the plantings. Take special note of the new sidewalk with a herringbone pattern.

This makes "coming home" after a hard day a work a whole lot more satisfying. It is really amazing how the right front yard landscapes can turn something ordinary into a curb appealing work of art.
