No. 28 Patios · Modern

Townhouse Patio with Slatted Privacy Screen

This small patio features porcelain pavers, a timber privacy screen, an L-shaped built-in bench with neutral cushions, and a weathered steel planter beside a compact townhouse exterior.

Design notes

Modern patios rely on large-format pavers or seamless poured concrete, tight joints and furniture with low, horizontal lines. Edges are crisp, planting is sculptural and shade comes from a slatted pergola or a cantilevered umbrella rather than a solid roof.

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
