Mid-sized country side yard patio in Austin with an outdoor kitchen, stamped concrete and a pergola.

Taking a nod from early pioneer homes, this breezway invites natural air currents to ventilate the home. The space is designed to connect two of the three exterior courtyards, to expand the footprint of the home into the landcape and make a comfortable ambiguity between the interior and exterior.

This project is a skillion style roof with an outdoor kitchen, entertainment, heaters, and gas fireplace! It has a super modern look with the white stone on the kitchen and fireplace that complements the house well.

A covered porch provides a place for the homeowners to enjoy the space even when the weather is not ideal. A custom cedar TV cabinet was installed with a flat screen so the space would be utilized on game day. Jason Wallace Photography

Can't have benches without cushions!! These bright red and white striped cushions provide the comfort that is needed to enjoy the flatscreen. You can also see that there is a dining table and chairs up on the other space. This picture has great finishing spaces!!!

Our client wanted a simple fireplace area that was tucked away yet still accessible. We created this separate space by using Japanese Maples, small shrubs and perennials. The brick around the fireplace echoed the house's traditional style and tied the whole space together.
