Outdoor living has taken a completely different meaning today now days. It is no longer setting up a tent in the backyard, or throwing a blanket on the lawn or even some lawn chairs. Today outdoor living is adding usable space where one can relax and entertain while enjoying the outdoors. Outdoor patios will vary in functionality to match a specific lifestyle: There are patios dedicated for outdoor cooking, pool surround, relaxation and gatherings and there are those that are a combination of all.

Some patio designs can be overwhelming and certainly very
costly. What you don’t have a lot of space to work with and money is a concern,
but still want an outdoor space to accommodate your lifestyle? Here are some
examples of patio designs that are average in size (approximately 140 sqft),
simple in style and designed with the ambitious homeowner in mind. With these
designs the price tag of the patio project suddenly become very affordable
while serving its purpose and still adding value to the home.
Each of the patios in the picture serves a specific purpose
and are simple to build. By simple we mean following the detailed instructions
provided for each patio that comes with a list of products needed to build the
project of choice. In many cases one can start with seating wall and add other outdoor
elements as budget or time permits. You can find detailed
instructions and link to how to videos for the each of these designs on allanblock.com
Should these ideas not give you the design you are looking
for, you can always use them as a starter and modify to achieve the look and
functionality desired. You can do that very easily using this patio design
app.
