About patio design
What makes a great patio.
The patio is the workhorse of outdoor living — morning coffee, weeknight dinners, long weekend conversations. This collection ranges from terracotta courtyards and brick-edged garden patios to seamless polished concrete terraces.
The material sets the mood: brick and terracotta feel established and warm, large-format pavers read modern, and poured concrete disappears so the furniture and planting can lead. Save the surfaces and edges that fit your home's architecture.
What to look for as you browse
- The paving material and how its joints are handled
- Whether the furniture footprint fits with room to move
- Shade at 4 pm, not just at noon
Good to know
Common questions
What is the best patio material?
Concrete pavers offer the best balance of cost, durability and repairability. Natural stone looks richest but costs more; poured concrete is sleek and seamless but harder to patch invisibly.
How big should a patio be?
Size it to the furniture: a dining set for six needs roughly 12×12 feet, and a lounge grouping wants 16×16 or more. It's cheaper to pour the right size once than to extend later.
Do I need a permit for a patio?
Ground-level patios usually don't require permits, but covered patios, roofs and anything attached to the house typically do. Check local rules before building.
