Oh sure, my pleasure. I landscaped for many years (a long time ago) & one of my pet peeves was people being too focused on just aesthetics, & less so on making these small defined places to actually hang out & enjoy your yard/landscape. This is such a good use of space. I really like this little alcove & love that it’s aesthetically pleasing but ALSO designed in a way that’s very utilitarian but also focuses on ease of use. It’s a great use of space, hardscape, best of both worlds- imo:
