When you’re envisioning and creating your Heaven on Earth-Garden don’t forget about the hardscape (patios, paths, rocks, fountains, containers, birdbaths, etc…). It will create the structure on which to build your outdoor living spaces. In this segment of eightWest, Rachael, Teddy and I construct a simple sitting area using a teak bench, two large containers and crushed limestone. It’s a perfect way to minimize the turf in your yard and after working hard outside it’s nice to have a place to relax and enjoy the view!
