Integrating a Decorative Water Feature

What happens here

A decorative water feature, such as the shown stone fountain, is strategically placed in a recessed corner next to the house. The area beneath and around the fountain is prepared with landscape fabric to suppress weeds and ensure proper drainage, then covered with rubber mulch for a clean, low-maintenance aesthetic. This provides a focal point and soothing sound element to the landscape.

Goal: Add a decorative water feature with a clean, low-maintenance surround.
