Challenge 1: Townhouse to Your House

Large ceramic pots in white or terra cotta—planted with tall evergreens and annuals at their bases that can be changed with the season—make wonderful statements that last all year long and give the eye a break from the urban harshness. Joseph and Tym did a great job with the structure of the patio. A few more cushions on the seating with some throw pillows—all made from Sunbrella fabric that is mold and mildew-resistant—would have warmed it up even further.
