Concrete Paver Patio with Timber Pergola

Concrete pavers lead to a terrace sheltered by a timber pergola and lounge seating, set against a flat roof, post-and-beam residence with a breeze block screen and desert plantings.

Design notes

Mid-century modern design lines everything up with the house. Look for flat roofs and post-and-beam overhangs, walls of glass, breeze-block screens, terrazzo or large concrete pads with gravel joints, and a rectangular pool set square to the architecture. Planting is sculptural and sparse — agave, yucca, olive, citrus, a Mediterranean fan palm — and colour comes from a single accent: an orange door, turquoise water, a yellow umbrella.

What to look for

  • 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
