Stone can be used to add texture, color and year round interest to the landscape. In this project, landscape boulders and river rock are installed to look like a dry stream. Larger stone is placed at the outer edge and smaller toward the middle, just as in a nature river or stream.

Reclaimed ‘Hexagon’ pavers by Architectural Stone Decor. www.archstonedecor.ca | sales@archstonedecor.ca | (437) 800-8300 The ancient ‘Hexagon’ stone pavers and tiles have been reclaimed from different locations across the Mediterranean making them timeless and unique in their earth tone color mixtures and patinas, adding serenity and beauty to your home. They are mainly used for small areas such as powder rooms, laundry rooms and wine cellars. They could also be installed as a welcoming mat at an entrance. Their durable nature makes them an excellent choice whether used as flooring in indoor and outdoor applications. They are unaffected by extreme climate and easily withstand heavy use due to the nature of their resilient and rough molecular structure. They have been calibrated to 5/8” in thickness to ease installation of modern use.

The Ingram job is unique in that it has lots of very interesting ocean shelf shapes and colors as well as a variety of embeds from the Monterey Bay that were placed into the concrete. There were sand dollars, starfish, moonsnails, and Monterey Bay aquarium sand just to name a few. We were going to attempt to use a very stout epoxy to seal one particular starfish but as it lay there the day after in wait…the Ingram's dog ate it. What was left when we pulled out the remains was a perfect impression of a starfish…almost like a petrified starfish. That feature as well as the rest of the patio, stairs, countertop and fire pit are amazing. Being about 30 feet from the ocean doesn't hurt the eyes either.

Small succulents fill the void spaces in the north facing side of the rock wall and can live off of the moisture in rocks.
