It can be extremely creative. It’s also varies a lot. It’s surprising how styles go in and out of fashion imo. When I started labouring back in 1997, we used to build a lot of Japanese gardens which we don’t do so often now. After that there was a phase of modern gardens, commonly with stainless steel water features, and sawn stone was a common choice back then. Again, very few of these are being built lately.

I wonder if it's because people can't afford it?
Funny how there's fashion in gardens too. Everyone's garden seems the same here.
I used to stay in a horse lorry on an estate down in Dorset, and they had all this cool Victorian stone landscaping by the river. There was the most incredible structure there designed to echo the water that passed through the mill wheel. Otherworldly. They sure don't make stuff like they used to.
