Meandering Stone

A former driveway becomes a meandering side garden. The curving walkway of decomposed granite forms accommodating patio seating areas as the low, red seat-wall contrasts gray-leafed plantings—echoing the warm and cool hues in the Mariposa slate borders and the stucco wall at the far end. A large, rectangular, copper fountain draws the visitor inward; delicate fabricated copper leaf details mirror the foliage of surrounding Passiflora vines.
