No. 111 Patios · Classic

Terracotta Umbrella over Wicker Lounge

A large terracotta market umbrella shades a wicker sectional and ottoman on a paver patio near a glimpse of blue pool.

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
