Like the movement of the grass against the permanence of concrete
this long grass-and-crushed-rock driveway reads as a similarly bold presence. A continuous border of ornamental grasses plays an important role to downplay the tension between the commanding architecture and the strong lines of the driveway.

Beats watering, mowing and half the potions that don't work to keep weeds away
