This is a design you've probably never seen before. Even if not, in many places. If you have a garden in your backyard, you must have a way to avoid people stepping on your flowers. This is where the recycled log comes into play. You can take logs from different parts of the tree so you can have variations in sizes. Make sure the logs are sealed before placing them on the path. You can also mix them with stones.

Contemporary patio

Having a lawn and flower garden in your backyard when you live in a place with little rainfall means you are setting yourself up for a lot of work. It is only advisable to choose a landscape that has less greenery and more other materials. A large terrace is a good starting point and you can mix it up with concrete floors and pebbles. For a bit of nature, you can settle for planting succulents.
