There is nothing more inviting that a stylish, winding path leading to and then through a lush backyard. 
Start with a landscape plan that enhances and complements your home’s architecture. A formal English garden isn’t the best design if your residence is a sleek contemporary.
Once the overall style has been decided the next step is to create a warm and welcoming entrance. This can be anything from decorative gates, a covered trellis or simple oversized clay pots full of seasonal blooming flowers.
Next install unique and easy to navigate walkways to your exterior entrances and throughout your garden. Consider flagstone pavers, colored pebbles, stamped concrete, brick or slate to definite each path. Framing the walkway with a contrasting material such as grass, mulch or even flowerbeds full of perennials offer a nice visual. And don’t forget the lighting! Strategically placed solar lamps provide safety at night while walking.
These outdoor spaces are only limited by your imagination! So don’t be afraid to mix and match materials and organics.
