I built these patio’s at a home in Lake Angelus around 5 years ago. It is a mixed stone media set on road base and sand.
This was the area for the firepit. After the work was completed a friend of mine pointed out to me how much this stone work reminded her of the stone paths and walkways in syria. My fathers mother’s family is from Damascus so I took a great liking to the idea there was some syrian influence coming through me during the building of these patios.
If you are building a patio for your enjoyment take your time selecting the materials. Before you go with a cheesy overdone brick paver get some prices on natural stone – nothing beats the look of natural stone and if it can fit into the budget then all the better.
