Patio - large craftsman backyard stone patio idea with no cover

Chicology Bamboo Roll Up Blinds are a timeless decorative accent and light filtering window treatment for classic homes. They’ll complete the stunning decor of any room, relaxed or sophisticated, and everything in between. With complex textures and unique weaves, Bamboo Roll Up Blinds capture the natural essence of the great outdoors. They offer stunning light filtering effects, a semi-privacy coverage and are appropriate for multiple rooms around your home, including dining room, living room, bedroom, sunroom, and more.
A 6-inch valance comes attached to the blinds and provides ample cover for the functional, but unsightly, mechanisms. Bamboo Roll Up Blinds install quickly and are simple to operate with the included cords. They roll up neatly at the bottom of the treatment, adding a refined dimension to your home. Since the blinds are woven with natural materials, the textures and colors may vary from the product listing and change over time. The changing nature of the product is an intended design and not a defect. Additionally, the blinds may stretch over time, due to the weight of the shade on the yarn’s natural elasticity. After installation, the blinds can stretch up to 1” to 1 ½”. By ordering slightly shorter blinds, the stretched portion will make up for the difference.
As a safety precaution, we included a release clip into the design of these blinds. When a certain amount of force is exerted on the cords, the lift cord will release.
Measurement: True-To-Size The size you order will be the actual size of the blind. There will not be any deductions.

These clients bought a Mid-century house with a vintage landscape that left something to be desired. Both the clients as well as myself have a great appreciation for midcentury design and its clean lines but the majority of the landscapes found in Mid-century housing developments across America miss the mark when it comes to more current sensibilities. The midcentury American philosophy was that man should exert dominance over the land and that hedge trimmers and lawn mowers are mans best friends.
Today more enlighten landscape designers strive to create landscapes that work with nature and not dominate it. In this project we did just that. These home owners loved the view of the mountains from their back yard in Santa Barbara, the way the warm colored sand stone boulders peak through muted greens of the Chaparral. We designed this landscape to be of its place. Sourcing local sandstone boulders like to ones found in the mountains behind the house we used then to build a low retaining wall. By breaking the sloping land into two flatter sections we are able to slow down the speed at which water evacuates the property giving it a chance to soak into the soil. This allows the landscape to work like a natural mini water shed, keeping the storm drains and then the oceans overwhelmed with polluted water and providing more water to the plants with less irrigation.
When it came to the plants, the clients wanted low water color and texture. To celebrate the fact that the house is located in Santa Barbara county we wanted to incorporate the muted green tones, with pops of colorful foliage. Using a mix of course lots of California native plants and Mediterranean adapted plants we created a plant plate that is beautiful, low maintenance and flutters with native fauna such as bird, and butterflies and bees.
