Modern Concrete Pool Deck

This expansive outdoor entertaining space would not be complete without a modern concrete pool deck, an outdoor kitchen and bar island and various fire and water features.

This backyard has all the bells and whistles. Dining and entertainment are on the upper level, while poolside enjoyment is on the lower level, separated by a lovely curved staircase. For this project, a warm base of Unilock Bristol Valley pavers in Steel Mountain was chosen to give an appearance that is relaxed but elegant. The modest surface texture and discreet edge detail of Bristol Valley pavers lend a refined elegance to the space. Thanks to EnduraColor, the surface of these pavers is also safeguarded from fading long after the project is finished, and with EasyClean technology, a factory sealed coating is added to the paver for enhanced stain resistance.

Moving on to the various vertical features, Unilock Brussels Dimensional Stone in Sierra was chosen. The outdoor entertainment space includes a fire table, water feature, and complete outdoor kitchen, grill and bar island, cozy fire pit seating area as well as an array of pillars, garden and retaining walls to help tie the whole space together. The vertical features alone are enough to entertain large social gatherings, not to mention the modern concrete pool deck on the lower level. Brussels Dimensional Stone was truly the perfect choice to help capitalize on verticality in this space, as its simple, antiqued look delivers timeless warmth and essence that lends itself to endless design possibilities.

Finally, rectangular Unilock Copthorne pavers in Basalt provide accent bands to the vertical features and borders around the perimeter of the space. Two distinct paver rugs utilize Copthorne pavers, laid in a herringbone pattern that draws the eye to key points on the upper level. Patio lighting is installed into the vertical elements, guaranteeing that this outdoor entertainment space remains well lit into the late evening.

This project shows just how choosing a few simple Unilock pavers can bring forth a grand outdoor living space. Learn how to use Unilock pavers to design an outdoor living space that feels like a year-round extension of the home.
