When containers are sited at the entrance of a building, the house becomes the context in which the container is seen. Some people may prefer large, blousy, colorful containers that contrast with the surroundings, but here the muted colors of both the containers and the plantings fit in with the neutral colors of the building and hardscape. Though the succulent plantings are mixed within the containers, their similar tones easily blend together. The clever design trick here is the way the bowl planter is repeated closer to the house — linking the eye between the two bowls and playing with the perspective.
