Elevated Stone Patios

Lifting a patio up, giving it’s own special elevation makes it a special place.  The setting might be intimate or perhaps just a place to escape for the afternoon with a good book.

Stone patios might also feature a dining table. This gives it a sense of intimacy, but the foliage and rustic feel also gives it a feeling of seclusion from suburbia or the city.

Try a circular patio with elevation and the obvious intention as a place of meeting, socializing, and entertaining. A fireplace in the middle, all of the chairs, suggests this is a place of importance.
