Want to highlight the beauty and peaceful look of your house adding curb appeal to it? I have an idea, rock a Japanese front yard! A Japanese garden is a miniature world full of abstract shapes–rocks, gravel, and cloud-pruned plants–designed to represent the larger landscape of nature. For centuries, Zen Buddhist monks and other Japanese landscaping designers have been trying to provoke deep thoughts, with design elements such as raked gravel paths and moss checkerboards and tiny bonsai trees trained to look permanently windswept.
A Japanese garden is composed mostly of pebbles, rocks, and boulders which are natural materials to help you connect with nature and bring your spirit to calmness and peacefulness from the hustle and bustle of life. These are gardens of a variety of shapes and designs to suit any space in your front yard, whether you choose any idea, this garden style has a very attractive image and creates an oasis of calm where you can enjoy a peaceful life.

Start from choosing plants for your front yard, you can stick to only grass, or add shrubs and trees that you like; blooms aren’t traditional for Japanese gardens, so it’s better to skip them. Go for pebbles of various shades, use stone steps or better rock ones to make paths. Choose a stone bowl and a traditional bamboo fountain for your front yard, rock a beautiful traditional stone lantern or several ones and a stone bench if you need one. I was always surprised how a small pond or a bamboo fountain can add charm and relaxing touches to any space, and that happens to Japanese front yards for sure. Enjoy the pics below and get inspired for creating your own Japanese front yard.
