One of our favorite gravel gardens is also one of the most simple. The courtyard in the Antwerp gallery-home of gallerist Veerle Wenes designed by Lens°Ass Architects features gravel, sparse vines, a single tree, and elevated concrete floor. Here’s a look at some of the decor elements to recreate the look.
