No. 13 Patios · Classic

Paver Patio Beneath Shaded Wooden Pergola

Stone pavers support outdoor seating and potted plants beneath a timber pergola covered by a fabric canopy with adjustable shade screens against a brick home.

Design notes

Classic patios use brick, terracotta or natural stone in traditional patterns — herringbone, basketweave, irregular flagstone — with a low wall or planted border to define the room. Wrought iron, teak and layered planting complete the look.

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
