Hardscaping Pictures

These hardscaping pictures have been assembled to give you an easy, visual reference that you can mine as a source for new landscaping ideas. See some nice examples of stone walkways and brick patios I've photographed and reproduce them in your own yard. Or if it's fences you'd like to "brainstorm" on, take my fencing tour and see what catches your attention.

Examples of Fences
What choices do you have for fencing? Well, there are a number of materials and styles from which to choose, and these pictures will help you decide. But since fences don't occur in isolation, I also show you some images suggesting ways to team your fences up with plants.

Walkway Examples
What are you looking for in a walkway? Would you like your building material to be flagstone, cobblestone, cement paver, brick or decomposed granite? Do you want it to be straight or winding? Maybe what you really want is a stepping-stone path, rather than a walkway? Let me help you decide.

Photos of Brick Patterns
Did you like making those easy puzzles as a child? Then you'll like working with brick patterns to lay a patio or walkway. I show you some of the standard designs in my photos: basket weave, herringbone and running bond.
