Landscaping On A Slope
Circular Driveway

While this design doesn't actually show the drop in grade, you will
be able to see it in the pictures and video below. The home in this
design is on a lot that is sloping from the house to the street as well
as from right to left. However, since it's not a very steep grade, it's
really quite simple how we addressed it.
On a side note here, the backyard to this home is on an extremely
steep grade. You may want to take a look at that design as well - Landscaping on a steep slope.
It's designed along the same lines as the front but needed different
engineering to fix the steep grade. I think it turned out just a touch
classier as well.
