This front garden echoes the classic lines and Mediterranean feel of the home’s architecture. A thirsty lawn was replaced with vibrant aloes, agaves, and low water shrubs. An area of decomposed granite doubles as an informal play court. Photo by Daniel Bosler

Crushed stone—in this case, decomposed granite—lends a gracious air to an expansive driveway and parking surface. Fieldstone slabs delineate the edges of the driveway and parking lot, gradually giving way to the red crushed stone used in walking paths throughout the landscape. An attractive and practical choice, crushed stone is environmentally friendly—the permeable driveway material provides natural drainage, and is easy to install and maintain. When the family entertains, guests can park on the crushed stone surface then follow the natural bluestone walkway to the home. Photo by Linda Oyama Bryan.
