Charming Patio
For this charming backyard patio, the homeowners wanted to create an outdoor space that was warm and inviting, with stunning features that would greatly enhance the overall curb appeal of the home. The result is a gently curving patio that eases the eye from one area to another.
Unilock Richcliff in Dawn Mist encompasses the bedding of the patio, with a triple wide border of Town Hall in Basalt laid in a running bond pattern that encompasses the entire patio. As part of our Elegance line of pavers, both of these products are manufactured with Ultima concrete and Reala technology to achieve a timeless look that will continue to look great for years to come. Jointing sand is applied between the crevices of the Richcliff pavers to help bind the stones in place and prevent shifting.
Rivercrest Wall - Outdoor Kitchen | River Forest, Illinois
A Unilock Rivercrest fire pit serves as the focal point of this charming patio, and a kit that includes a metal insert and grill to create an alternative BBQ space. A low curved seat wall is constructed using Rivercrest in Coastal Slate to create an ultra-cozy gathering area for family and friends alike. The natural stacked flagstone look of this product lends a modern touch that is echoed in the small grill island located at the other end of the property, which sits adjacent to a finished wood patio table and chairs for a roomy eating space. Landscape lighting is installed into the coping of the low seat wall and grill island to draw visual interest to the vertical features.
The natural green space helps accentuate the solid border lines and curving features of the patio. A garden wall wraps around behind the grill island to create a subtle privacy veil. Flowers adorn the low seat wall adding a splash of color to the muted tones of the patio bed. The result is a charming patio that creates a romantic scene for candlelit dinners and cozying up by the fire. There are many considerations when planning your outdoor living space.
