Updating the backyard space. #landscapedesign #paverpatio
What happens here
The core of the new design is a multi-zone paver patio. This includes a primary dining/seating area directly outside the house, a dedicated circular fire pit area with built-in seating walls, an outdoor kitchen and cooking space (possibly with a grill and counter space), and a bar seating area. The design cleverly divides the patio into these distinct functional zones, enhancing usability and visual appeal. The video highlights how the design 'makes sense' of the backyard space.
Goal: Create a new paver patio with clearly defined areas for different outdoor activities.
