Design Themes: Outside Possibilities

The owners of this property put considerable thought into creating this space. Walls comprised of brick and foliage successfully frame this classically modern outdoor room. Loose stone and planks form the "floor," eliminating the need for grass—and by extension, maintenance!—and creating a simple footprint. Morning sun allows for long deck brunches, where lingering over fresh-squeezed juice, java, the paper, and conversation with family and friends is encouraged.
