better integrate the existing stone retaining walls into the landscape preserve the natural stone appearance and ensure the walls feel fully connected to the surrounding terrain rather than standing out as separate elements improve and refine the soil texture around and behind the walls creating a natural transition between the retained earth and the existing ground harmonize the color texture and materiality of the soil with the surrounding terrain so that all earth surfaces appear consistent and realistic smooth the terrain where necessary reinforce the visual continuity between the stone walls and the embankments and create a cohesive natural looking landscape maintain realistic grading and topography while highlighting the stone walls as an integral part of the site
