A manicured grass lawn is not nature
It's more nature than what's there now
Stone isn't nature? Looks like natural stone to me. It's ugly AF but both are artifical and have little to do with nature.
If you just want to be a contrarian for the hell of it, you're doing great.
Nothing is synthetic it's all made of stuff we have here on earth!
I see your point and raise my promethium-146 sprinkled in my tiles.
That's just organic star stuff.
I guess a concrete lot is better in your opinion.
It doesn't require constant watering and fertilizer that leeches into ground water just so you can have perfectly green 2" tall grass fully exposed to the sun that doesn't want to live there and call it "nature".
If you're going to get nitpicky we could focus on how much heat the concrete retains vs plant life which can absorb and use the energy. All the people with concrete or rock yards around here are super hot, my dog and I have to run by in the summer. Paving vast surfaces is a poor alternative to landscaping. The soil underneath will dry and the animals, insects, microflora, etc will all be forced out and that part of the earth will just be dead.
But really it just looks dumb and Jackie planted some of those trees.
Yeah, for this space that is frequently used to host people or filled with chairs for a press conference, it is better and makes more sense.
A good representation of the old regimen, as unnatural as concrete, but at least trying to appear natural
