Recently having designed a patio, I began thinking about my own (lack of) patio. So of course I had to design my own patio. This is the result.
I knew I wanted a landing from the porch with two steps down to the patio.
I wanted the stairs to the ground to line up with the edge of the patio. After trail and error, I managed to get the levels to match as intended.
Of course, my wife had to add benches and a fire pit. Eventually I relented.
So this is now my fall project. Like I didn't have enough to do =).
