Tuscan Front Yard Landscaping
Even though this plan was quite simple to envision and create, it is very well thought out in terms of access and usability. Parking and access to the front door and side yard lay down a large part of the framework. Once these areas were established, there was very little space left to design.
The curved bed areas on the outside of the sidewalk are created around two large multi-trunk red oak trees. The trees are place at an angle that extends from the driveway to the corner of the home. This helped create a unique lawn and flower bed shape that, unlike most homes and landscapes that are squared with the street, is unique.

Planning ahead, and as you'll see in the pictures below, the far left lawn area is left unplanted to allow access for landscaping the backyard. Planting the lawn in this area will be the last thing we do as we work our way out of the backyard.
