What this project shows
This patio uses a hand-troweled decorative finish with a brick border beside the house and outdoor seating. The wider view shows how the finish reads across the living area; the detail view shows the border and transition at the edge.
Design takeaway
Outdoor concrete should be designed in context with the house, brick, furniture layout and transitions. A border can frame the field and connect the concrete to surrounding masonry without making the entire surface visually busy.
