A young couple purchased their first home, a town-house on the California Central Coast. They wanted to create a functional, elegant and inspirational space out of the current overgrown and chaotic patio. This entailed a complete make-over of the patio including new hardscape, with built-in benches, planters, and an outdoor fireplace. A grill, umbrella, and a dining table crafted from an antique table, with new plantings to create privacy and elegance finished the project.
