Around the bend
Look at how that arbor calls you to move around the formal space, and see what's over there! Adding an element of mystery turns a simple walk outside into an adventure, even if you know what's just around the bend.
Take the time to do it right, (use a level and add packed sand underneath,) and you'll have an ideal space to stop, relax and renew. Don't forget to add proper seating if you find that squatting on the ground is not comfortable, or give an outdoor pillow a try.
