Here grasses lend a very different geometry, rounded mounds, as well as an unexpected silver-green color. Huettl Landscape Architecture used Festuca 'Elijah blue' in the foreground with Blue Oat Grass and Berkeley sedge beyond the gravel oval.

Repetition in plants of similar forms — all circles and mounds — creates a beautiful rhythm in an entry garden. Color blocking is also used as a cool design device to draw someone from the concrete patio toward the stepping-stone path. First there's a section of blue, in the form of fescue grasses, then there's a band of green-gold boxwood (right) mirrored by a gold succulent band (left). And finally, a row of taller ornamental grasses in pure green lures you farther into this garden.

Filled with annuals, perennials and roses, this would be a traditional garden in a typical backyard. Filling the same space with symmetrical rows of grasses and shrubs creates a completely different look.Though hardscaping may play a leading role, plant choice is still a major factor in a modern or contemporary landscape. Ideally, most should have an architectural character (think phormium or blue fescue) with foliage in shades of green or gray. Though colorful flowers and plants can be used in this style of landscaping, they're most effective when treated as accent pieces.
