Landscaping Pictures: Symmetry in Front Door Entrance Design

The front door entrance pictured above is not located very far from the street, which reduces the need (as well as the potential) for landscaping. But that hasn't stopped the owners from making their entryway more welcoming and interesting. The use of planted Grecian urns in a symmetrical arrangement as shown in the picture above is popular in landscaping for entryways. Symmetry is especially important to formal landscape design. Such a design is certainly in keeping with the house style, as indicated by the impressive classical columns. Note also the brick pathway leading from the fence to the front door entry; visually, it picks up the brickwork in the house across the street, suggesting that this landscape is right at home in its neighborhood.
