"I believe, the landscape should be thought of before the placement of buildings, hardscapes and outdoor entertaining spaces. If done so, all hard element spaces will visually become a part of the landscape, which will make those spaces and its surroundings more intimate with nature. In turn, those spaces will add tranquility and decrease stress."
