This Santa Monica backyard features a timeless stone paver patio paired with a warm, natural wood pergola set on stone pillars. The design adds shade and architectural character while keeping the space breezy and open for coastal living.
We installed a compacted base and interlocking pavers with polymeric sand for stability and drainage. The pergola’s posts are anchored to stone pillar bases that echo the patio’s materials, creating a cohesive look. Clean edges, precise cuts, and smooth transitions to the surrounding landscape make the area ready for dining and lounging the same week.
