There are lawns. And then there are works of art. Perhaps your rectangular patch of turf feels lush. But why not give it an artistic treatment, like this enticing Alice in Wonderland–inspired checkerboard of grass and concrete pavers? (P.S. This lawn is durable, permeable and decorative — not to mention mowable!)Remember: The nonplant elements and pieces that you incorporate into the garden should be a reflection of your personal style. At the terminus of this patchwork-quilted lawn is a gorgeous contemporary water feature. Unique and functional, it balances the two-dimensional "floor" with just the right three-dimensional form.

Nice mix of hard and soft surfaces

This is so simple; and something I normally dislike as too contrived - the checkerboard lawn - grass and concrete pavers? But maybe in some form it would be nice in the dog yard; gives them defined spots for rolling and spots for business. Easier on us too. In our climate, I would think the squares would need to consist of 4 of these squares; ie. smaller sections of grass die in the summer
