A two-level pergola, circular firepit area and outdoor kitchen with a charcoal-gas combo grill star in this Houston patio addition designed for entertaining large crowds in style. "The client was an attorney with a passion for cooking and entertaining," says the project's principal designer, Lisha Maxey of LGH Designs. "Her main objective with this space was to create a large area for 10 to 20 guests, including seating and the prep and cooking of meals." Located in the backyard of the client's home in Spring, TX, this beautiful outdoor living and entertaining space includes a 28-by-12-foot patio with Fantastico silver travertine tile flooring, arranged in a Versailles pattern. The walkway is Oklahoma wister flagstone. Providing filtered shade for the patio is a two-level pergola of treated pine stained honey gold. The larger, higher tier is about 18 by 10 feet; the smaller, lower tier is about 10 feet square. "We covered the entire pergola with Lexan - a high-quality, clear acrylic sheet that provides protection from the sun, heat and rain," says Outdoor Homescapes of Houston owner Wayne Franks. Beneath the lower tier of the pergola sits an L-shaped, 12-by-9-foot outdoor kitchen island faced with Carmel Country ledgestone. The island houses a Fire Magic® combination charcoal-gas grill and lowered power burner, a Pacific Living countertop pizza oven and a stainless steel RCS trash drawer and sink. The countertops and raised bar are Fantastico silver travertine (18-square-inch tiles) and the backsplash is real quartz. "The most unique design item of this kitchen area is the hexagon/circular table we added to the end of the long bar," says Lisha. This enabled the client to add seating for her dining guests." Under the higher, larger tier of the pergola is a seating area, made up of a coffee table and espresso-colored rattan sofa and club chairs with spring-green-and-white cushions. "Lighting also plays an important role in this space, since the client often entertains in the evening," says Wayne. Enter the chandelier over the patio seating arrangement and - over the outdoor kitchen - pendant lamps and an industrial-modern ceiling fan with a light fixture in the center. "It's important to layer your lighting for ambiance, security and safety - from an all-over ambient light that fills the space to under-the-counter task lighting for food prep and cooking to path and retaining wall lighting." Off the patio is a transition area of crushed granite and floating flagstone pavers, leading to a circular firepit area of stamped concrete. At the center of this circle is the standalone firepit, framed at the back by a curved stone bench. The walls of the bench and column bases for the pergola, by the way, are the same ledgestone as the kitchen island. The top slab on the bench is a hearth piece of manmade stone. "I think the finish materials blend with the home really well," says Wayne. "We met her objectives of being able to entertain with 10 to 12 to 20 people at one time and being able to cook with charcoal and gas separately in one unit. And of course, the project was on time, on budget." "It is truly a paradise," says the client in her Houzz review of the project. "They listened to my vision and incorporated their expertise to create an outdoor living space just perfect for me and my family!"

Nature's Accents Landscape Services, Inc. Project Entry: Cummings' Residence 2013 PLNA Awards for Landscape Excellence Winner Category: Residential Hardscaping $15,000 - $30,000 Award Level: Bronze Project Description: The Cummings' worked with our designer to create an outdoor living space which would function as an area for family and friends to gather. The two main elements the clients requested were an area for an outdoor fire pit, where they could comfortably gather and roast hot dogs and marshmallows. The second was to incorporate a pergola to provide shade as well as add an architectural element to the design. Taking their needs into consideration, our designer created spaces for each of these requests as well as incorporating plantings with seasonal interest. The Cummings' property is situated on about 2 acres in a rural setting. The property is mostly flat and gently slopes from the front of the home to the street. The property is bordered by farmland an country homes as well as a commercial property to the left. Privacy became a concern and a fence was installed to screen the commercial property. Ornamental and perennial plantings were chosen for full sun, low maintenance, extended bloom time and if possible multi-seasonal interest. Incorporating circles and various sizes of pavers created a challenge to blend square and circular patterns, as well as incorporating the vinyl pergola square to the existing buildings and paver patterns. Also, this project was installed in August and there were extended periods of extreme heat and little shade relief due to lack of mature trees on the site. The 790 square feet of material used to create the patio was Imperial by EP Henry 3-piece modular pavers. They were installed in a random pattern with a 8x9 sailor row. The pillars, seat and retaining walls, fire pit and steps were created using Versa-lok block. Natural stepping stones were installed to provide access through the landscape to the back yard. Several Integral light fixtures were integrated into the seat and retaining walls and the steps. A custom 12x12 white vinyl pergola was installed. Brown toned 1-3" decorative stone was installed throughout the design to aid in drainage as well as add another dimension to the project. Each project our company, Nature's Accents Landscape Services, Inc., undertakes has its own unique features. It was a real pleasure to see all the unique aspects of the project unfold, from the initial design consultation to the last installed plant, not to mention surpassing our client's expectations. This project has been admired by many clients of the homeowners (tanning/nail salon on site) and through their recommendation has led to four new clients of our own.

Traditional forms with a modern take. This transitional home provides nostalgia while allowing for new ideas and styles. The home's main level is centered around a common exterior space in which the living, dining and master bedroom have direct access to the outdoors, which extends the living space beyond the walls of the home.
