The details are not the details; they make the design, so said Charles Eames. This viewpoint doesn't just apply to furniture or interiors; it applies to all elements of your home, both inside and out, including garden paths.
A garden path is part of the exterior hardscape, so it should ideally blend sympathetically between the architecture of your home and the landscape. Materials or styles that stand out for the wrong reasons can look uninspiring, unappealing, or worse, ugly.
