Walkways or paths in the garden are primarily to facilitate movement from one point to another. Typically paths lead from the parking to the front door and from the backdoor to the kernel, cloth lines, vegetable garden and other facilities in the compound.
But walkways do much more than take you to your destination. They form important elements of art in the garden’s design, bringing about and defining the garden’s character. They also determine the fate of the user; his experiences as he passes through the garden’s spaces.
