From City Garden Co

This mid-century modern style home needed an update to bring out its true personality. The house was painted black, then we added this modern outdoor living space in the front yard to match. Using a mixture of materials - concrete, slate ships, wood, steel - we designed and built a patio area with a fire pit and seating. The patio area is designed to flow seamlessly with the rest of the home, connecting with the interior in a way that draws you outside to enjoy the open space and breathe.
