A gravel patio is an excellent addition to any home not only because of the added beauty it gives, but also because of the multiple purposes it can offer.
It can easily transform your backyard into an extension of your living room space, a place to dine and bond with the family, to enjoy a grill out with friends, or a personal sanctuary to enjoy a book or relax after a long tiring day.
The contemporary themed gravel patio in the picture above evokes an inviting and cozy ambiance, perfect for spending the afternoons outside.
Make the most of your gravel patio design by furnishing it with woven outdoor furniture, neutral drapes and a white pergola. The accents of blue from the pillows add a calming effect to the overall style of the space
Among the available materials in the market, gravel is one of the most desired ground cover for patios. It is well loved because of the numerous advantages it gives.
If looking for a more practical solution and alternative to an expensive stone patio, wooden deck or interlocking bricks pavement, pea gravel is your best option.
Design it however you want, either alone or mixed with other types of stone aggregates or incorporated in your landscape setting. Since it also offers ease in installation, making your own gravel patio can be one of your next “DIY” projects.
