Thanks again to Jay and his crew for designing a pergola that made our backyard the best in the neighborhood. We've had some wonderful BBQs and family gatherings since getting our new patio cover and we love the look of the wood used. Highly recommended and pricing was very reasonable! -Anne, Colleyville resident
More considerations before planning a patio repair or install:
Four basic principles-- unity, variety, proportion and balance-- guide many professional landscape architects and planners. If you follow these in your planning, you’ll be well on your way toward achieving a design with flexibility and character.
Unity means that everything in your patio looks like it belongs together: paving, overhead, and screens complement each other; furniture suits the patio’s architectural style, and patio plants relate both to each other and to the plants in the garden. Unity between patio and house is important, too. If your patio is off a kitchen with a casual style, the patio should have the same feeling to it.
Variety keeps unity from becoming monotonous. Good design offers an element of surprise: a path that leads from the main terrace to one more intimate, a plant display that makes a garden work center part of a patio, a subtle wall fountain that gives dimension to a small space, trees that provide varying degrees of light and shade at different times of the day.
Variety also provides interest on a vertical plane. Patios at different levels, low walls, raised beds, privacy screens, and tubbed plants of varying heights help to draw the eye away from a horizontal expanse.
Proportion demands that your patio structure be in scale with your house and garden. Remember that your patio is an outdoor room, not an indoor one, and there will be a difference in scale. Although many patios are scaled to the living room, don’t be afraid to design a large patio. Outdoor furniture generally takes up more space than indoor furniture, and you may want room for containers of plants.
Keep in mind, too, the range of activity you want your patio to serve.
