A house with an original shape was built in Colorado

Colorado-based architecture firm Studio B has studied many homes in historical areas Denver, so that the new brainchild of the designers would be modern, but at the same time reminiscent of ancient city bungalows.

Lined up cottage received large panoramic windows, brick finishing self made and walnut panels. Although the building immediately attracts the eye, it fits perfectly into the surrounding landscape, plus it retains the same style as the neighboring houses.

The house is surrounded by neat lawns and trees, under the shade of which it is pleasant to relax in a chair on the veranda

The house was built in the old quarter of Denver - an area with the “sunny” name Sunnyside. Brick bungalows with wide terraces have always been predominantly built here, and oak, willow and maple trees are planted along the streets. The architects decided not to deviate from tradition and to do this use the techniques of interpretive architecture, which imply maximum adjustment to the established local style of houses.

Around the house project with a courtyard there is a soft blind area made of crushed stone

“Our offices are in Aspen and Boulder, but we operate not only in Colorado, but throughout the country. This allows us to evaluate local architectural traditions in order to offer the client something unusual and unusual for a particular region at the right time,” say representatives of Studio B Architecture and Interiors.

“Here we see a shift away from local traditions towards large and overly complex projects, albeit using typical building materials. Therefore, in contrast to some neighboring buildings, we tried to create the most spacious, ergonomic, but one-story house.”

Around the house with patio a lot of greenery - grass, shrubs and trees

On our website you can get acquainted with the most construction companies, presented at the exhibition of houses “Low-Rise Country”.

The lower part of the house, according to the developers' plan, is lined with high-quality Italian dark brick - this is a traditional solution for local houses.

“The project draws its color palette from the surrounding brick bungalows, which is reflected in the handmade brick covering - this is an unprepossessing at first glance, but high-quality and durable material of stunning natural beauty,” say the designers.

In the living room, owners and guests of the house will find a fireplace and comfortable armchairs

Brick cladding is used in parallel with thermally insulated walnut panels and large panoramic windows, which give the front part of the house a lot of sunlight. According to tradition, the threshold of the house is on the same level as the terrace, and the concrete foundation is left without additional finishing, which visually makes the house lower.

The large bed in the bedroom is located opposite the panoramic window, which in turn faces the patio, which means it is hidden from prying eyes

The designers moved the traditional backyard into the interior - creating a house around a courtyard. A swimming pool, an underground fireplace and a lounge area were placed in the open space. The courtyard itself is separated from the rooms of the house by retractable glass walls– any of them can be removed and you can go straight out of the room for a picnic or dive into the pool.

Appearances are deceiving - although the house looks low from the outside, it has a full basement

“The patio is one of the highlights of the house. Here you are at home and in nature at the same time. starry sky surrounded by trees,” say the designers. "This concept is inspired by contemporary artists' explorations of the proportions of the sky-earth connection."

The total area of the house is 427 square meters, which accommodates bedrooms for owners and guests, a living room, a dining room combined with a kitchen. On ground floor there is an additional bedroom, home cinema, study and wine cellar. The interior is defined by neutral color palette and streamlined decor.

For real beautiful project houses with a courtyard look very simple at first glance

“Studio B” has no less interesting projects, for example, a house in Aspin decorated with zinc and glass, or a second-class school in one of the areas of Colorado, built entirely... from earth.

Any architectural and construction project consists of three parts: architectural, design and engineering. This is a document without which the developer will not receive permission to begin construction.

The main part of the project is the architectural and design sections. If the customer is absolutely sure that the construction team will have intelligent specialists in engineering networks, then they can refuse to develop this part of the project in a specialized company. But it is necessary to understand that the architect, designer and engineer work on the project together and such aspects as, for example, grooves and openings in the walls for laying pipes and wires are provided for by them in advance.

The engineering part of the project is divided into several parts

Water supply and sewerage (WSC)

water supply scheme
sewerage diagram
general form systems.

Before starting design, it is necessary to decide what kind of communication will be - individual or connected to centralized system.

Individual water supply gives complete independence from external conditions. But you must remember that you will need your own water sources, and drilling a well will cost a decent amount.

Connection to a centralized system will require the development of a project in accordance with technical specifications existing network and obtaining permission for connection.

When connecting a sewerage system to a centralized system, the procedure is the same as when connecting a water supply: submitting a request to the relevant services, developing a project, obtaining permission to tap into the system. If you decide to organize an individual sewer system, then from time to time you will have to invite a sewer service.

Heating and ventilation (HVAC)

heating scheme: calculation required power equipment, distribution diagrams of heating mains, location of pipes and radiators
ventilation scheme: link to power electrical equipment, ventilation communications and shafts, passage nodes and, if necessary, placement of stoves and fireplaces
boiler piping (if necessary)
general instructions and recommendations for the section.

If the ventilation system is always an individual design, then heating can be either individual (stove, air, water, electric) or connected to centralized networks.

Power supply (ETR)

lighting wiring
power network wiring
ASU diagram
grounding system
detailed description and characteristics of all elements of the system.

Electrical systems can be divided into mandatory and optional. Mandatory items include interior and exterior lighting, ventilation, air conditioning and electric heating systems. Additional systems include systems such as “Warm floor” or automated control gate.

IMPORTANT

Each part of the engineering section of the project must contain general and technical descriptions, specifications of materials and necessary equipment.
Drawings of elements of all systems and floor electrical wiring are made on a scale of 1:100.

Price: from 100 rub. per m²

Package "Utility networks"

Project utility networks will allow you to competently lay communications and make the house truly comfortable and modern.

Making changes to the project

Often the customer is faced with the question: choose standard project home and save money, while losing on the originality of your future home, or order an individual project, but for a lot of money.

Our company offers a compromise option. You order a standard project, and we make changes to it, taking into account all your wishes as much as possible. Of course, this involves additional costs, but, in any case, such a project will cost much less than work for a specific order. And we will make sure that your home looks original.

The following changes can be made to the house design:

move wall partitions. But only if they are not load-bearing. This operation will allow you to change the size and purpose of the rooms

transfer of window and doorways will allow you to change the lighting of the rooms and organize convenient access to the rooms you need

changing the type of ceilings and walls will allow you to fully realize your own ideas about economical and rational housing

change the height of the ceilings. Although all our houses are designed with optimal height rooms are 2.8 m, some customers believe that high ceilings provide additional coziness and comfort

Converting an attic into living space will give you the opportunity to expand your own living space

It is worth changing the angle of inclination of the roof and awnings taking into account the climatic conditions of a particular region

it is necessary to change the type of foundation, taking into account the engineering and geological parameters of the soil. It is also possible to add or change a basement or ground floor

you can add, remove, change a garage or terrace, in accordance with your ideas about the functionality of your home

change in structural composition, construction and finishing materials will allow you to manage your own financial resources economically

the project in a mirror image will allow the house to organically fit into the surrounding landscape.

The changes made should not affect the safety of the home.

Too much a large number of changes, as a rule, do not improve the project. If you were unable to select from the catalogs suitable house, then maybe it’s worth ordering housing from an architect based on an individual project.

Package "Foundation adaptation"

When a standard house design is developed, certain average soil parameters are taken as a basis. But without accurate geological examination data, it is difficult to take into account all the nuances when designing. Therefore, often the engineering and geological characteristics of a real site differ significantly from those originally included in the project. This means that the foundation - the basis of the entire house - will need to be modified to make it strong and reliable.

To completely eliminate all problems when laying the foundation, our company’s specialists have developed the “Foundation Adaptation” package. When implementing a package, not only specifications, but also the wishes of the customer.

This package includes:

selection of foundation type
calculation of technical parameters:

Depth of laying the base of the foundation
- load bearing capacity
- indicators of soil stress under the foundation
- cross-sectional area of working reinforcement, etc.

detailed drawings of the zero cycle
cost sheet for construction materials.

Adaptation of the foundation provides a complete guarantee of its strength, and therefore the reliability of the entire building. You are guaranteed to get rid of problems such as shrinkage and cracks during operation. finished house. Moreover, often the adapted foundation turns out to be cheaper than the option originally included in the project. And this will help save materials and financial resources.

Individual design

If you decide to build a house, then you have your own idea of what your dream home should be like. And if none of the standard projects suits you, it makes sense to think about an individual project. In addition, all your wishes will be taken into account as much as possible: level of comfort, family composition, even the view from the window. It is clear that such a project will not be cheap. But you will know for sure that there is no other like it.
Sometimes, however, you have to resort to individual design. For example, a developer received a plot of land with a non-standard configuration, and not a single standard project simply fits into it. And it also happens that the number of changes made by the customer is such that it is easier and cheaper to design a house from scratch.

Stages of working on an individual project:

development of technical specifications for house design
contract for design work
Preparation preliminary design: linking the building to the area, external and internal view, layouts, sections
detailed study of project sections.

In addition, you can also order:

projects for additional structures - garage, workshop, bathhouse, etc.
visualization of the project in 3D format.

Ultimately, the customer receives a package of design documentation consisting of architectural and structural sections.

The project features:

General plan of the house linking it to the boundaries of the site.
Floor plans, which indicate the thickness of walls, lintels and partitions, room areas, specifications of windows and doorways.
Facade plans indicating finishing materials and color schemes.
Sections of the building and main components.
Drawings and sections of the foundation, material consumption sheet.
Overlap calculation, rafter system roofs, roof insulation and waterproofing units.

You can decide on the style of your future home in the “Individual Design” catalog.

Plastic bag " Tender proposal"

For any developer, the question from the funny nursery rhyme "what should we build a house...?" far from idle. Moreover, the cost of building a house depends on many factors. Therefore, you should not estimate costs by eye. Without complete information, it will not be possible to calculate everything down to the smallest detail and, in the end, it will cost you more. And, in addition, a careful calculation of the cost of materials and work affects not only your finances, but also the time frame for building a house.

You can accurately calculate construction costs by using the “Tender Offer” service developed by our specialists. Essentially, this is a document that provides full list all construction materials and works indicating their volumes.

Having a tender offer allows you to:

get a real picture of the costs of upcoming construction
attract a construction company that can offer the most favorable conditions for the work
not only understand the essence of the construction process, but also competently control the consumption of building materials, independently adjusting prices for each item
competently control the actions of contractors at all stages of construction

tender proposal supported by information on the cost of materials and construction work- a serious argument for obtaining credit funds from a bank.

Anti-ice package

Snowdrifts and ice in winter time on the roof of your house cause a lot of trouble. You can, of course, climb onto the roof and swing a shovel in the cold for 2-3 hours - no matter what. But they have long been invented and widely used efficient systems snow melting and anti-icing. Their basis is heating cables. The system is organized according to the same principle as a “warm floor”. Only more powerful and the cable laying step is smaller.

The Anti-Ice package is developed taking into account the characteristics of the home's energy supply:

for the roof and gutters: snow melting in gutters, at the edge of the roof to prevent the formation of icicles and ice in pipes

for the entrance group: heated steps, paths and open areas

for the entrance to the garage: heated driveways

in addition, sometimes the Anti-Ice system is used to heat the soil in greenhouses, and for landscape heating of flower beds, lawns and lawns, as well as for heating sports facilities.

During the design process, the minimum energy consumption is calculated and fire safety is ensured. When creating an Anti-Ice system, it is recommended to use only certified self-heating elements that do not support combustion. In addition, the system is equipped with an overheat shutdown device or a differential circuit breaker to automatically shut down the system when energy loss is detected. If the system turns out to be too large, it is divided into smaller sections. This makes it easier to manage its work.

Important:

For a multi-pitched roof, the specialists of our company will design the Anti-Ice system according to individual orders.

Package "Lightning protection"

Often, developers do not attach much importance to protecting their own houses from lightning: some save, some count, others hope for chance. But 3-4 years after building a house, many people remember lightning protection. The neighbor's roofing felts were all burned in a thunderstorm Appliances, then I came across statistics about how many fires due to lightning occur per year.

We propose to resolve the issue immediately: to provide protection already at the design stage of the house. This is worth thinking about, at least for purely aesthetic reasons - you won’t need to once again hammer into the walls of the house and pull the down conductor along the facade, disrupting the thoughtful appearance of the building.

Lightning protection for a home is a system of devices located both outside the home and indoors. External lightning protection prevents lightning from entering the house, internal - protects the electrical network from sudden voltage surges. And special devices protect electrical equipment from sudden changes in the electromagnetic field within the radius of a lightning strike.

The Lightning Protection package includes

layout diagram of lightning rods that absorb direct lightning strikes
cross-sectional diagram of a down conductor diverting current from the lightning rod to grounding
diagram of a grounding loop that distributes lightning energy in the soil, ensuring complete safety
averaged resistance calculations
detailed list necessary materials
recommendations for project implementation.

The Lightning Protection package from Dom4M guarantees your home safety even in the most severe thunderstorm.

Plastic bag " Central vacuum cleaner"

"Central vacuum cleaner" is a type of aspiration system(removal of small particles by sucking them in with an air flow).

The system consists of:

vacuum cleaner(installed in technical room);
air duct system along which the dust-air mass moves (hidden installation is often carried out in the preparation of the floor or in the space behind the suspended ceiling);
pneumosockets and pneumatic scoops(the first is connected to a flexible hose with a telescopic rod and a nozzle, as in a regular vacuum cleaner, the second is intended for express cleaning, usually in the kitchen).

Pros:

removable dusty no air gets in back into the room, and is “thrown out” after the unit onto the street;
No noise in cleaned areas.
Ease of cleaning without “dragging” the vacuum cleaner from room to room, without using extension cords.
Hidden installation system, there is nothing in the room except an air outlet.

Project price: from 3100 rub.

Package "Comfortable Home"

Explanatory dictionaries claim that comfort is a set of household amenities, without which life is unthinkable
modern man V modern house. Most of these amenities are included at the design stage. But we are ready to expand their list and help clients make their own homes as comfortable as possible.

The other day, my friends sent me to look at an interesting house. Or rather so. They were interested in the house and they sent it to me to look at, evaluate, and express their opinion. When I first received the photos and looked at them quickly on my phone, let’s just say, I didn’t feel much inspiration and decided that I would look at it later... and I did it only today. But... but today I opened all the images on a large monitor and realized that I was wrong. The house is very interesting

The first thing we usually see is the facade. Everything here is usual and tells us nothing about what will happen next.

But the courtyard pleases us with its openness. It is mine. A large glazing area, clear geometric shapes, but at the same time the absence of right angles creates a pleasant impression.

In any case, in the design project everything looks light and homely.

And seeing this part of the building during the installation process, I was convinced that the project design and implementation were consistent. More often, the general concept is preserved, but the implementation itself loses many details.

It will be very interesting to look at this building after construction is completed.

But even in this form I like it.

And I was immediately delighted with the interior space. I like how everything is organized. Due to the expanded shape, the rooms form a single space and not the most big house seems huge.

Directly we see the exit to the terrace, and on the left side the future kitchen-living room.

This is the kitchen-living room. Light and airy.

An interesting solution with a fireplace. It is open both to the room and to the terrace. This idea is clearly visible in the first pictures.

Excellent organization of space. I definitely like it.

Another interesting project and I will also take something from it for my project.

A patio or outdoor courtyard near a living space may have different shapes and sizes. You can equip it by surrounding it on different sides with walls or fences, latticework or galleries, as well as a hedge of trees and shrubs.

A patio or outdoor courtyard near a living space can have different shapes and sizes

Before you build a courtyard or patio on suburban area, it is necessary to draw up and calculate the project. Specialists and designers can offer to bring to life not only beautiful, but also original projects such buildings that are located both in front of the house and inside the household made of timber and stone. Professional design engineers most often use the option of comprehensive landscaping with the construction of the following types of patios:

inside a four-walled courtyard, with fencing and gates;
with one wall and decorative fencing;
in the shape of a glass bulb in a house with a flat roof;
corner type, adjacent to one of the walls of the house;
with a fireplace wall for cooking over an open fire;
With artificial reservoir and decorations.

To obtain a complete and modern landscape design with proper arrangement of the patio, you can also take a closer look at the already ready-made projects or develop an individual landscaping plan.

Types of patio seating areas

There are several types of arrangement of patio areas in the local area, but the most popular are corner buildings, courtyards at the back wall of the household, balcony and multi-level accommodation, as well as a solarium patio and a romantic patio with a barbecue area.

Gazebo-patio for relaxing in the country

Traditional construction with a roof made of strong and durable materials that can protect from the sun and precipitation. Most often, the roof is made of translucent polycarbonate, and the walls are made of lattice, which allows planting around the perimeter climbing perennials and annual flowering crops.

Romantic patio in the courtyard of a country house

Mediterranean style decoration is extremely popular. If you decide to create a relaxation area with your own hands for romantic meetings and evenings for two, then it is best to choose a place in the most remote corner of the garden, where you can have privacy, and also create the most attractive design against the backdrop of greenery and flowers. The site being performed can be either open or covered with dense vegetation, decorative fencing, fabric canopy.

Projects of houses combined with a patio area

The need to combine home ownership with a recreation area requires the development of a special project. In this case, it is advisable to give preference to the most popular trends, including open plan and a kitchen-dining room combination. Home ownership can be with traditional pitched roof and a flat roof.

The second option allows you to use the roof surface as a green terrace. In terms of planning, houses with a traditional pitched roof are most often built around a courtyard. In this case, a comfortable living room combined with a kitchen should be equipped with panoramic windows and access to a covered patio.

Patio with barbecue for meeting friends

When choosing a place in the country to create a recreation area with a barbecue, several of the most important factors must be taken into account: important nuances. Above the created platform, according to the rules fire safety, there should be no overhanging tree branches or bushes. To decorate such an area, potted crops can be used, artificial reservoirs or decorative fountains.

It is advisable to locate the site in close proximity to the household, which will allow for water supply electrical network and plumbing system. Traditional is rectangular shape sites, allowing you to conveniently place pieces of furniture and the grill itself, but round or oval areas with a barbecue look very impressive for relaxing with a large company or family.

Multi-level patio

The original version of a multi-level patio is optimally suited for arrangement in areas with a shortage of free space. Among other things, it is precisely such recreation areas that are most relevant if the owner of a country property plans to use this element garden design not only for entertainment and relaxation, but also for other purposes. With a whimsical appearance, a multi-level patio option, which includes several types of cut floors, is perfect for decorating in modern styles.

Choosing furniture for a relaxation area in the garden

A properly executed patio includes several traditional elements, represented by small recreation areas, an area for household needs, an artificial reservoir in the form of a pool or pond with a fountain, a drainage system, landscaped areas in the form of lawns or flower beds, as well as plant collections.

The main elements should be carried out in the same style; this will allow emphasizing the complete isolation of the recreation area being arranged, therefore Special attention is given the right choice furniture. First you need to decide whether the furniture will be outdoors throughout the year or removed indoors with the onset of winter. Outdoor furniture It has different purposes , therefore, it is advisable to purchase entire sets, including sun loungers, chairs or armchairs, benches and tables.

It should be remembered that furniture made of cast iron or stone is incredibly beautiful, but most often it is stationary, so for a small patio, it is advisable to purchase lighter furniture made of plastic, bamboo, cane or rattan.

How to make a wooden patio at your dacha with your own hands

Wood is a natural, environmentally friendly and comfortable material for spending time, which is quite affordable for purchase and easy to work with. It is for these reasons that many owners of suburban real estate increasingly prefer wooden buildings in the recreation area.

Choosing and preparing a place for a patio

To begin work on the construction of the patio, you will need to mark the area in accordance with the project. Recreation areas with wooden floors look great, and a light floor board allows you to visually enlarge the area. There are several ways to lay a wooden floor:

the use of hardwood, including ash and oak, which are most resistant to negative street influences;
fixation of modern decking boards or decking, most often represented by a combination of wood and plastic derivatives, which makes it possible to take advantage of the specific resistance of polymers to external factors.

Laying of construction and finishing materials is carried out on wooden or metal logs installed on a previously cleaned and marked surface.

Many country property owners increasingly prefer wooden buildings in recreation areas

Construction of the main structure

An above-ground structure for recreation can be made in the form of a spacious platform, lined with traditional wooden planks, and equipped with several sections with areas for placing a fireplace, a seating area with furniture and a decorative artificial pond. To protect personal space from prying eyes, walls are erected, which can have the most different heights- from a few centimeters to a couple of meters.

Steps, walls and arches of the patio, as a rule, are made of the same building and finishing materials that were used for cladding the home. In this way, it is possible to show a smooth transition from the building to the patio for relaxation. If a barbecue area is being set up in the area, then in this case only non-flammable and fire-resistant materials are used, which should not only be resistant to fire, but also durable. If the site fencing is made in the form of a lattice, then it is allowed to decorate the walls with climbing vegetation.

An above-ground structure for recreation can be made in the form of a spacious platform covered with traditional wooden boards

Making an Inexpensive Patio Cover

If you need to build an inexpensive canopy, first of all, you need to decide on the choice of its design. This design can be done:

in the form of a gazebo;
in the form of a terrace;
in the form of a visor;
in the form of an imitation porch.

The canopy structure can be attached or free-standing. The materials for constructing a canopy can be:

tree;
profiled flooring;
sheet polycarbonate;
plexiglass;
colored euroslate;
metal tiles;
thick fabric.

Particularly popular are decorative canopies, which are optimal for decoration and serve as an original addition. general style everyone country houses

At self-construction design, it is very important to take into account the following basic rules:

the canopy is made with a minimum slope of 5-10%, which will not allow snow and water to accumulate on the surface;
when arranging a place to relax, you need to count on two square meters for one person;
The optimal dimensions for arranging a patio with a barbecue are 4x6 m.

The support can be made of concrete, wood or metal. Depending on the design features, the canopy over the recreation area can be:

direct, the easiest to manufacture and well protected from direct sunlight;
inclined, single-slope and gable type, preventing the accumulation of water and snow on the surface;
complex, arched, domed, polygonal and pyramidal shape based flexible materials, including profiled sheets and polycarbonate.

Particularly popular are decorative canopies, which are optimal for decoration and serve as an original addition to the overall style of all country buildings. Any decorative canopy, if desired, can perform enclosing and protective functions.

The canopy is made with a minimum slope of 5-10%, which will not allow snow and water to accumulate on the surface

Fencing and landscaping of the recreation area

The flora planted in the recreation area should be represented by vegetation that will easily create an unobtrusive and relaxing atmosphere of well-being and complete tranquility. It is very undesirable to use for landscaping purposes too bright and very colorful, fragrant flowers that secrete a large amount of nectar. Such vegetation tends to attract pollinating insects, including various flies, midges, bumblebees and bees, which can interfere with outdoor recreation. Low-growing conifers will complement the design of the constructed recreation area in a very original and harmonious way.

Patio area lighting

In the process of decorating the constructed site, it is necessary to resolve the issue of supplying electricity, but the installed lamps must create a calm, matte lighting that does not dazzle the eyes. Appearance lamps can be in the same style with general design patio or vice versa, should create a bright and original accent on certain areas of the alternative living room. Lighting along the edge of a covered or open area, made along the entire perimeter, allows you to emphasize the shape of the patio, and also provides complete security, being a very practical lighting system.

Attention, TODAY only!

Since ancient times, when the outside world posed a threat from all sides, houses with courtyards were built in order to protect themselves and their families. It was a place where you could relax, a special comfort zone for family and friends.

Project of a one-story house with a courtyard and glass walls

Such internal open courtyards are sometimes called. The homeland of the patio is Spain, where Moorish and Moorish are closely intertwined. In Islamic countries, courtyards were the main place for conducting business activities.

There are similar courtyards in other countries. For example, and. In these countries, internal tea courtyards are an attribute of the tea ceremony, one of the most important national rituals.

Nowadays, of course, the courtyard no longer has a protective function, but it is still relevant, as it allows the family to escape from the bustling outside life and relax peacefully in silence and comfort.

In ordinary life, the so-called atrium layout is most often used when planning a patio. Its meaning is simple - all buildings are built around the perimeter, and a courtyard is laid out on the resulting site.

Original patio fencing

Most often, buildings are located either in the shape of a square or on three sides, with the fourth, free side, being used as the entrance to it. There are indoor and outdoor courtyards.

First of all, you need to draw up a design project for the desired courtyard. Here you need to decide on the location of the house, buildings and the courtyard itself. It should be conveniently located and fulfill its original function: to provide privacy from the outside world.

Patio size

The size of the patio depends only on your wishes and capabilities. It could be like a tiny courtyard containing only small gazebo for relaxation, as well as a large space with a variety of buildings.

patio design

Functions and purpose

When creating a project, you should also consider what functions the courtyard will perform. If it is intended to be a gathering place for only a small family, there is no point in making it huge. If in the future you plan to gather all your many friends, relatives and acquaintances here, in order to avoid crowding, it is worth making it large in size.

When developing a project for an outdoor patio, you need to decide on the choice of all the building materials needed during the construction process. Depending on preferences and capabilities, these can be either artificial or only natural materials.

One of the options for arranging a backyard on the second floor

Construction of paths and platforms

When designing paths and platforms, it is necessary to take into account the relief features of the site and the purpose of the paths. When designing, you should calculate the load acting on the tracks, and in this regard, select the technology and material for their manufacture.

Water features

A fountain will look very beautiful and original in such a courtyard. It is worth planning in accordance with the general exterior of the entire courtyard.

To cool down a little on a hot summer day, you should think about building a pool on your patio, even if small size. The most simple option involves purchasing and installing a standard bowl. When buying ready-made bowls, do not forget about our cold weather. Plastic bowls, as a rule, burst when there is a sudden change in temperature.

Also, strong impacts are contraindicated for such bowls. Acrylic bowls are ideal for our area with severe frosts in winter and can easily withstand almost any mechanical stress.

But if you want to build a pool according to your own design with an unusual configuration, then you can fill the dug pit of the chosen shape and size with concrete.

Additionally, you will have to take care of the location of everything necessary complex equipment for pool maintenance, water filtration and drainage.

Patio landscaping

Developing landscape design patio, to create beauty and comfort, you can use vertical gardening, placing so-called vertical terraces of plants.

Such terraces are quite complex engineering structures assembled on a frame basis. The frame can be made of any shape depending on the overall design of the courtyard. At the entrance, the plants arranged in an arch look very beautiful. They can also be placed on trellises, climbing plants put it on grates, or simply place it along the walls of the house and on the borders of plots.

The frame for plants can be assembled from any strong material at hand. Profiles for mounting plasterboard systems or regular wooden beams are ideal for this.

Capillary mats with a system are mounted on top of the frame drip irrigation, on which the plants are planted. When constructing such a system, it is necessary to correctly select the entire set of plants decorating the yard, according to all the necessary parameters.

The use of forged elements in vertical terraces will attract the eye, and the plants located nearby will play a secondary, complementary role.

The construction of a hedge on an area will allow you to divide the yard into parts or become an original partition to separate different functional zones. For example, this is ideal for separating a recreation area from a swimming pool area.

Terraces are usually installed in the spring and removed for the winter. With some effort, it is fashionable to make such terraces with your own hands, but it is better to turn to specialists for help. Green terraces will add coziness and completeness to the courtyard.
