The front path leads you through a minimal geometric courtyard, and the materials have a strong relationship to the house.

The pedestrian pathway lets one approach a dramatic entry court with views that pass right through the house. The entryway was designed not only for drama and a special journey, but also as a space sheltered from the Pacific winds. It provides a warmer microclimate for gathering outdoors on windy nights. Here comes another cute pooch to greet visitors.

Here Mexican feather grass was chosen for its architectural simplicity and easy maintenance.

This home sits atop a bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean in Aptos, California. A beautifully planned entry court provides a peek at the ocean through the front door.

While many coastal gardens are designed to reflect the natural lines of the surrounding landscape, this is a gorgeous example of a contemporary approach. The olive trees have a cloudlike appearance that softens the architecture, and the motion of the grasses as they sway in the wind brings a lively feeling to the home.See more of this coastal garden

Olive trees frame the entrance to this house. They are a hardy tree able to manage most conditions, and the glaucous and gray tones add contrast to other plants.

How lovely is this? A lot lovely me thinks! Love the simplicity and beauty of the feather grass.

These simple low level path lights subdue themselves to the landscape design, which in my opinion, is the hallmark of great outdoor lighting design. Similar to my suggestion fr the Wise patio

contemporary metal roof interesting entrance floor design

Rocks and stone can wrk, but not with brick - trying to combine two styles

I like use of multiple concrete pads instead of a solid piece of concrete sidewalk leading to the front door.

It makes me feel like in the wonderland
