Landscape features are integrated with home improvements to ease the transition between inside and out. An informal bluestone walk guides visitors to the new front door from a generous circular driveway. The flow is facilitated with wide steps and a terrace. In the back yard, an informal dining patio softened with steppable perennials extends the inside/outside relationship and further connects the house and garden. Local, reclaimed granite and slab stones add a sense of time and place.
