Design ideas for a contemporary patio in Toronto.

Cumaru Oval & Algonquin Granite

Contemporary Patio, Toronto

Small terrace enhanced with oval decking made from Cumaru (hardwood from Brazil) and surrounded by Algonquin Granite flagstone. Cumaru as a wood surface offers an attractive finish in a variety of tones from deep to light browns. It is an extremely durable wood that will last upwards of 50+ years, is rot and moisture resistant and will fade to a light grey over time . The colour can be enhanced by refinishing to keep its original look. Algonquin Granite, is an elegant flagstone with a dark colour highlighted by white accents. As with most granite it is extremely durable and keeps its colour without fading. It comes in black with ivory accents and black with rose/pink accents. It also comes in honed, sanded or flamed finishes.
