This project includes a stepping stone walkway, stone wall and gardens. The stone wall and step are used to separate two different entrances. These stones are selected for their large size and smooth edges.
The owners of this newly renovated restaurant in Jamestown, RI were looking for an stylish and unique outdoor dining area. The contrast of the Brick and Bluestone complement the colors of the restaurant perfectly.
This spacious, stepped irregular Bluestone patio includes a Hot Tub, strategic boulder placement, seating areas and pillars. The large entrance pillars double as planters for annuals.
This unique boulder was incorporated into construction of the patio and serves as an excellent birdbath. The garden beds were included to soften the harder edges of the patio, and consist of low growing ornamental grasses that won't obstruct the homeowners' water views.
Using large boulders, Granite slabs, and irregular Bluestone, this entrance has a very natural look. The retaining wall allows for greater parking space, and was built with local wall stone.
The irregular Bluestones of this wide walkway were carefully laid to ensure an even, safe path. Straight edges were avoided in this slightly angled front entrance.
The flat lawn and clean lines of the Bluestone steppers, Cobblestone edging, and Cedar fence panels are complemented by the mounded gardens and shrub masses. Hydrangeas, Andromedas, Skimmia and Azaleas are used to make this layered garden.
This pillar is constructed from local wall stone, with a large Bluestone cap. The pillar light was designed to complement the home's copper gutters and to reflect the angular design of the landscape.
With limited space available in this client's backyard, this design included an 'Endless' swimming pool veneered in local wall stone. The bluestone coping conceals the automatic cover and provides poolside seating.
These front steps are veneered in local Jamestown wall stone and capped in bluestone. The lawn areas are lined in reclaimed cobblestones to create a straight edge. Bluestone pieces are evenly spaced for this front walkway.
Placing boulders in garden beds creates visual interest. These boulders, along with the plantings, soften the very straight edges in this design.
This pool and hot tub combination meet seamlessly with the deck to create easy access. The hot tub is separated just beneath the water surface. The cedar fence steps up evenly with the slope of the property and makes a great backdrop for a bamboo garden.
The 3D model allows homeowners to visualize the swimming pool, hot tub and gardens before construction. A photo of the actual site is placed in the background to show the view of the existing landscape from the swimming area.
These large boulders frame Bluestone capped steps leading from a backyard patio to the garage. The patio is constructed from natural cleft Bluestone in a random rectangular pattern.
This small seating area is constructed from Ashfield stone and includes a firepit. Also pictured is the large patio built off the back of the house, which replaced an older wooden deck. All the pillars and steps are made from local wall stone.

This patio was built with natural cleft bluestone, using a random rectangular pattern. The elevated fish pond was designed to be very still and look more like a reflecting pool.
These winding steps lead from the backyard of a private residence directly to the beach. Large landscape boulders physically and visually anchor these steps. Leymus Grass and Rosa rugosa make up this seaside planting scheme.
This interesting pattern of bluestone stepping stones provides direct waterfront access.
This landing is at the top of a stone staircase leading to the beach. The landing is irregular bluestone, framed by bluestone treads and small landscape boulders.
