No. 90 Patios · Modern Farmhouse
Pergola-Covered Patio with Fire Table
At night, a bluestone patio beneath a timber pergola with glowing string lights features a concrete fire table facing a modern farmhouse with white board-and-batten siding, black windows, lighting, and a metal roof.
Design notes
Modern farmhouse design keeps things honest: white board-and-batten or painted brick, black-framed windows and doors, standing-seam metal roofs, cedar posts and beams. Outside, that means gravel and bluestone rather than fancy paving, a big lawn, raised beds, a porch or pavilion with a fan, and simple furniture in black or natural wood. Lighting is gooseneck barn lights and warm string lights, never anything glossy.
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
