Landscape design doesn’t end with lush turf andbeautifully arranged plants. Artistic Hardscapeareas can frame attractive landscapes, add richdetail and expression to your yard. Achieving theright balance of Hardscape in your MasterLandscape Plan can be a difficult challenge in do-it-yourself or professional landscaping! Too muchbrick or stone can dominate a yard and take awayfrom a natural feel. Designing Hardscapeelements must be done very skillfully with an eyefor balance; integration and harmony to work tocreate an overall unity.Take a moment and think about what sort of yard
you want. Do you currently have a patio or areyou hoping build one? How do you and yourfamily use your yard? Is it games, picnics, sports,or just relaxing? All of these items are key aspectsin deciding what type of Hardscape feature youwant in your Yard. Whether it is a Paver Patio,Natural Stone Patio, Retaining Wall, Seat Wall,Planting Bed Wall or Architectural Stone Patio,we can help your Outdoor Living dreams becomea reality.
- These larger waterfeatures sit on top of an underground reservoirthat re-circulates the water. Once the urn fillswith water, the water spills over into anunderground basin and pumps back up throughthe urn. If a spitter or decorative fountain ismore to your liking, you can set it on thereservoir and a pipe will move the water fromthe basin up through the center.
- Standalone Fountainsare popular due to their ease of set-up andmaintenance. A wide range of styles areavailable, from impressive brass to simple resinfountains. These features are made to "standalone", like a tabletop fountain, just add water,plug it in, and enjoy.
- If you want to"test the waters" of the water gardening hobby, acontainer water garden is a great place to start!They add the sound of water to a deck or patio,and look great greeting visitors by the front door.They also give children a fun way to learn aboutnature and make a great starter "pond".

A note from a Happy Landscape Customerregarding his Basnight installed Outdoor LivingDesign.“First, let me start by saying Basnight Land
and Lawn did an exceptional job in our yard.We originally contracted a different landscapecompany to perform the work, but quicklydiscovered they were not the right company forus. Basnight immediately came in with adetailed plan that fit our budget. Their workcrew was extremely knowledgeable, courteous,and diligent.”“I can't express how happy we are with what
Basnight did for us. All of our friends andfamily have had the same reaction and that issimply, "Wow!" Even though the project wascompleted during the onset of Winter, we havestill been able to enjoy the fire pit and hot tub.We can't wait for warmer weather so we cantake full advantage of our spectacular yard. Wehave a very large group of family and friendsthat can't wait to enjoy it with us!”“Thanks.” - Hugh M.
