Each type of stone creates an entirely different outdoor floor. Check out the Lushome collection of linear and curvy garden paths and find visual inspiration for your outdoor living spaces.

Stone garden paths are functional and easy to maintain. Although linear walkways are perfect for classic garden designs and contemporary paths, curves look charming and surprising. Curvy walkways and garden paths are good Feng Shui designs, harmonizing outdoor living spaces and attracting good luck. Here are some design ideas that bring visual inspiration for creating your stone walkway or garden path.

Strewing several stone steps through your garden makes it easy to walk after rain and reduces the effect of compacted soil. Beautiful stepping stones help with rainwater runoff. Water can flow between stepping stones, bricks, and small concrete pads. Stone garden paths and walkways allow the water to soak into the ground around them.

Shapely walkways and garden paths

Subtle curves are more appealing to the eye than straight lines. Curvy walkways and garden paths allow wandering through the outdoor home spaces and feel captivated by little surprises along the journey. Potted flowers, attractive shrubs, garden art, signs, and figurines amplify the elegant beauty of a curvy stone path.

Curves are pleasing to the eyes and look harmonious with yard landscaping. Curved paths stretch small spaces visually and make them seem more spacious than they are. Plants can soften the straight edges filling the cracks and decorating the sides. Fragrant plants such as lavender or lilies increase the enjoyment of walking the garden path.
