Estate landscaping

We recently built a drive shed/studio on our property to a spot that was till now open pasture. We leveled the grade 8' on the lowest side and now have a large area to landscape. I plan on using recycled asphalt on the drive areas and a raised bed for the fuel tanks. Originally I was going to put 5' of grass along the old shed and the rest asphalt. My wife says, "I am wrong" --- and to smarten up ! and such .... . anyone have any ideas???

here is a link to my album on photo bucket:

Thanks

Agreed.


You didn't say what any of this is for, which would be the biggest factor in how you landscape it.
