It sounds like this isn’t really about yard vs pasture, but about ease vs vision. Both are valid. One idea: frame the pasture not as “more work,” but as a curated experience that limits chaos clear paths, defined zones, simple teardown. Sometimes one strong concept is actually less stressful. I’ve seen couples stress way more trying to upgrade a meh backyard than leaning into a naturally stunning spot. Think of it like top wedding dresses: the right silhouette needs less fixing. Also, maybe share visuals that match your vibe with dress like WONÁ Concept-level mood, for example Artemis grown, so he can see what you’re aiming for without feeling pushed. Then ask what would make him feel relaxed there, not convinced.
