Extending a Small Patio

This house has a small concrete slab that serves as the backyard patio. At 4 x 7 feet, it's barely large enough to hold two chairs and allow passage from the house to the yard. The surrounding area is also plain, with just grass surrounding the patio.

The solution calls for a timber and stone terrace to extend the existing patio. Plants provide privacy and soften the foundation of the house. The result is a garden room with plenty of room to entertain, privacy from the neighbors and a pleasing view.
