Having the fireplace with wood storage on either side is nice. Also like the bench on the front and the shelf areas on either side.

Q

Photo

Another good example of what the walkways up the front and back of the hill could look like.

Q

Photo

Perhaps having planter beds like this on the front face of the hill with this type of stone?

Q

Photo

Perhaps what the walkways up the front and back of the hill would look like.

Q

Photo

This is what I envision on top of hill, much bigger fire pit, would have picnic style table and less formal/outdoor chairs. I like the stone here and would fit up on the hill. putting in a small rock wall surrounding the area up on the hill may be nice.

Q

Photo

Very similar to what it may look like with more of a finished look. Stone would be different though.

Q

Photo

I like this too, but would use different stone.

Q

Photo

I really like this, but doesn't have a hip roof. Would this type of roof be too tall/big, considering it's location in the backyard?

Q

Photo

I like the beams in this, also considering a skylight?

Q

Photo

I like this....but not a hip roof. Would it be too high for our backyard?

Q

Photo

I do like the beams here...

Q

Photo

Heaters and lights...

Q

Photo

Lighting for the walkways?

Q

Photo

the post lights on the posts look interesting. Wonder if it would give of enough light for the backyard?

Q

Photo

Don' like the stone, but the hip roof and layout looks interesting.

Q

Photo

ceiling....

Q

Photo

I like the size of the firebox....don't want to have a smaller one....would rather have a larger box like this one.

Q

Photo

another look....

Q

Photo

Example of wall with rock....

Q

Photo

another look at it....stone matches. Also think we need to do a floor like this one, vs. just continuing with aggregrate.

Q

Photo

Interesting....

Q

Photo

I do like the detail of this roof. Do the columns look too chunky?

Q

Photo

Is this what the hip roof would look like?

Q

Photo

Perhaps what the retaining wall would look like.

Q

Photo

Here is what I see the columns outside looking like for the breezway.

Q

Photo

Drapes for the sides?

Q

Photo

I like the embedded stone/boulders for the walk ways up the hill to the firepit.

Q

Photo

I like the rock on this fireplace.

Q

Photo

Close up of the French Country columns with finished look. Could match the house better.

Q

Photo

It says French Country....these columns could work if we go with a finished look. Dark exposed beams in the ceiling....would that look odd?

Q

Photo

Would this be what the columns could look like?

Q

Photo

Walkways up the hill to the firepit area. Like the stone and lighting.

Q

Photo

Columns, roof, light.

Q

Photo

Heaters in the ceiling?

Q

Photo

Fire Pit
