One of the first decisions that you will need to make is what type of stonescape is right for your project. If your pool is right in the center of your yard, or you have small children, you may want to opt for the smoothest texture and clean design. Some textured designs could be rough on small feet, or could cause someone to trip and injure themselves. If your pool does not take up a large area of your yard, or you’re less concerned with certain safety measures, than you might want to opt for dramatic rock formations and textures that will give your yard an enchanting jungle look.
