A patio and deck design in Westchester



A Westchester backyard patio and deck design. The deck features mahogany and iron rails. I used bluestone slabs to create the steps down to the granite patio. Concrete walls create planting areas and also double as a seating wall.  Iron railings on the steps compliment the deck rails. The plantings have been in for one season and are just begining to soften the stone work.
