A walkway from driveway to front door had not yet been planned. This walkway is a pattern of naturalistic granite slab steps with grass landings, comfortably leading up to front walkway: a crisp grid of bluestone squares with river stone joints [photo to come] the 4 trees in distance are fastigiate [naturally narrow columnar] and are spaced to echo/enhance the course of narrow windows on the far end of facade.
a variety of ornamental grasses offer 3 1/2 season interest, getting sheared down to +/-16" in march, then left alone till next march.
