This stunning project, a combination hardscape, deck, pergola and fire pit project in the Ballantrae subdivision of Dublin, Ohio, is a work of art. Working from the center outward, the first line of pavers to contrast the field is called the sailor course, to use hardscape lingo. For that contrast, the homeowners chose Oberfields’ Unity line of pavers in the Vision Smooth color. The next line of contrast, a darker one, is called the soldier course. Here they selected Il Campo pavers from Unilock’s EnduraColor in charcoal. Finally, the rounded outer edge, which is called the bullnose cap, is from Unilock.

Inspiration for a traditional landscaping in Chicago.

Looking out from the screened in porch the kitchen area was designed on the lower level as not to block the view of the backyard. Upper patio is large enough for two chairs and a bistro table. The lower area is large enough for dining and entertaining.

After detailed discussions between client and design team, we created a multi-use outdoor living space that is beyond appealing. Outside the back door, we have a landing and steps adorned by two raised planters. Stepping down to the main raised patio, the client has ample space for dining. Instead of having a raised wall at the end of the raised patio, we have a planting bed. To the left, we step down to the walkway connected to the driveway, and to the right, we step down to an area to enjoy a beautiful color changing, "disappearing" waterfall. -Deck deconstruction -Paver Patio -Raised Planters -Paver Walkway -Water Feature -Plantings -Outdoor Lighting PROJECT DETAILS: Patio (Upper): Unilock - Thornbury (Alpine Grey) Patio (Lower): Unilock - Town Hall (Burnt Clay) Patio Accents (Upper): Unilock - Town Hall (Burnt Clay) Unilock - Brussels (Sandstone) Patio Accents (Lower): Unilock - Brussels (Sandstone) Walls/Steps: Unilock - Olde Quarry (Sandstone) Coping: Unilock - Fullnose (Sandstone) Wall Accents: Unilock - IL Campo (Heritage Brown) Lighting: Wall, Spot, Pathway Water Feature: AWG - Color Changing Waterfall Plantings
