Small Front Yard Ideas

Small yards feel bigger with restraint — two materials, one focal point, clean edges.

The rules for small yards

  • Two materials max on the ground plane.
  • One anchor plant or specimen tree.
  • Straight edges — curves eat visual space.
  • One over-scaled element (a large boulder, a large pot) to set proportion.
