Rustic Patio Design Ideas
A rustic patio combines the raw natural beauty that celebrates the landscape's organic character with a space designed for anyone with a hardscape outdoor area.
A patio typically features furniture, planters, shade structure, lighting. Container gardening and vertical space are your best friends in a patio. When designed in the rustic style, these elements get elevated with weathered browns, forest greens, stone grays, copper and materials like rough-hewn timber, fieldstone, aged metal, bark mulch.
