A hidden grilling station may be a good idea, especially if you have a modern house. You can see how the folding lid of this configuration neatly hides the equipment and provides protection for it. - j_mitchell617

FRONT. Fire hole. The size and depth of the hole depends on how big you want your fire to be. A deeper hole will let less light be visible from the surface and the flame will be more contained. A wider hole means you can make a bigger fire. https://www.instructables.com/Dakota-Fire-Hole/ - webuser_366950516

A paver patio (Anchor Afton, walnut color) to gives the homeowners the entertainment and dining space they wanted. The blended colors of the pavers pull together the colors of the roof shingles (brown) and the New York Bluestone (blue/gray). The smaller pattern of the pavers defines the space, inviting guests to sit. Plus, the plant bed between the wall and the patio gave the homeowners a space to plant seasonal color and an edible garden.
I like the density of plants in the beds, I like that there are a lot of trees for the space. I like the trio of evergreens along the fence line. - lucy_strumbos
