The patio is an outdoor room centered on a raised, gas fire pit and shaded by a row of Swedish Aspens the photographer is peeking through. The porch's cedar siding will weather to match the fence/arbor built 5 years prior. Peter J Sieger Architectural Photography

Luxury Gold Coast home in Surfers Paradise which required privacy screens which would look stunning and not block the ocean breeze. To soften the exterior, we custom designed a Silver Birch pattern which has plenty of open area. The screens are LARGE. Much larger than a standard sized panel. Custom sheets were ordered and after laser cutting, were framed to add strength. Installation by Platinum One Interiors.

Design ideas for a large contemporary side yard patio in Los Angeles with an outdoor kitchen, concrete slab and a gazebo/cabana.

Ipe decking, Earthworks EW Gold Stone decking, and exposed aggregate concrete create a beautiful contrast and balance that give this outdoor architecture design a Frank Lloyd Wright feel. Ipe decking is one of the finest quality wood materials for luxury outdoor projects. The exotic wood originates from South America. This environment contains a fire pit, with cobblestone laid underneath. Shallow, regress lighting is underneath each step and the fire feature to illuminate the elevation change. The bench seating is fabricated stone that was honed to a beautiful finish. This project also features an outdoor kitchen to cater to family or guests and create a total outdoor living experience.
