modern design diy ideas

my side patio was a mess for as long as ican remember when it comes to upkeep a home is a never ending story inside and out these are the before pictures of the patio i wanted to create a space that could be used i removed all the rubble next i cleared the area and leveled it

i boxed it in with 1x4 so i could pour the concrete before that i added conduit so i could run wires and have outlets around the area i filled the frames with rocks and added rebar and mesh it was a back breaking job to pour and finishthe slab i was just one guy and had to mix as i wentalong

i did the two small ones one day and the larger box on another here you can see the slabs are curing i added wind sails they really make the space i build seating along the fence line and attached a tall backing to it all this lumber was 1x4 and 2x4 i covered the furniture them with enamel paint

i also built this smaller bench to tie thearea together the cool thing about this patio project is it feels modern and welcoming the furniture also serves as privacy from prying eyes this is the space i created i hope it gave you some ideas let us know what you think this is escagedo woodworking
