No. 11 Patios · Classic

Travertine Patio with Tiered Stone Fountain

A beige travertine stone patio features a metal dining set under a timber pergola, a tiered water fountain, and stucco arches lining the courtyard home alongside potted lavender and olive trees in bright daylight.

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
