When you decide that the time has come to change up your landscaping design, there are many directions that you can choose to go. However, if you are looking to really change things up, you may be looking to incorporate stone features into your design. You have a wide variety of options available to you in stone products to enhance your landscaping design. Get to know some of these options so you can begin planning your next big landscaping project as soon as possible. 

Standing Stone Accents

One of the ways that you can incorporate stone into your landscaping design is to put in one or two standing stone accents. Large standalone stones can be strategically placed in your landscaping design to create a focal point or accent. 

Stone accents can be helpful if you want to draw your eye to a certain area or away from an area in your yard. Place a stone accent piece in the center of your yard or along a garden path. 

Stone Fountains

Another way that you can incorporate stone into your landscaping design is by putting in a fountain. Fountains are excellent focal points and can be used in the middle of a garden space as well. Create a gathering space with seating around your stone fountain and you will be able to enjoy your fountain all day, every day. 

Stone Waterfalls

If you have always wanted to add a water element to your backyard and your landscaping design, you may want to install a stone waterfall into your design scheme. A stone waterfall can be made to look very natural, as if it has always been in your backyard. 

When you really want to take your waterfall design to the next level, you could also have a stone slab bridge over the waterfall. This will make it even more interesting and aesthetically appealing. 

Stone Arches or Sculptures

A stone arch in over your garden pathway can add a touch of old-world charm and traditional style to your landscaping design. You can have the archway designed to look older and settled in with stones that are of different sizes and shapes, or you can choose a more put-together look with stone pavers or bricks. 

An alternative to an archway is to create your own unique stone sculpture as a part of your landscaping design. Making your own stone sculpture will give your yard a one-of-a-kind art piece that you can enjoy looking at every time you go in your backyard. 

Now that you know some of the ways that you can go about incorporating stone into your landscaping design, you can get started planning your next landscaping project as soon as possible. Just call a company such as Harristone to get started.
