Stone Hardscape Ideas
Beautiful ideas that draw guests out into your yard and enjoying the outside
Are you seeking more usable space?
Many homeowners are choosing to upgrade their outdoor living space and gain more utilization out of their property. The stone patio frequently serves as the main the hub of outdoor activity, providing entertainment space for outdoor kitchens, dining areas or even a second living-room complete with wood burning fireplace. Plus, a well-designed landscape is proven to increase your home’s resale value.
Design CONSIDERATIONS:
Scale: Great patio design fits within the overall size and scale of your home and garden. It provides plenty of gathering space, yet leaves room for perimeter plantings and shade structures. A beautiful patio also works functionally with other elements in the yard.
Intended Use: This plays a large role in determining the best size and location to design for. Larger patios right off the kitchen door are handy for dining needs. While smaller patios can be hidden farther back in the garden, providing a quaint spot for two.
Patio covers: Pergolas are a popular option for patio spaces, offering a type of shade cover as well as providing vertical interest and formal space definition.
Permeability: Sustainable landscaping options such as permeable pavers or mortar-less flagstones are a great idea to help out the local environment. These patio designs allow rain water to flow between the stone or paver block edges, then the water gently percolates into the ground below. These options come in a tremendous variety of artistic colors, design and configurations.
