This custom backyard cabana is one part of a multi-faceted outdoor design that features a stain and stamp patio and walkways, a fire pit and custom shade pergola.

For the patio cover, we designed a roof with a stunning open-gable end. We used tongue and groove pine for the ceiling and wrapped all of the beams in cedar and posts in AZEK. If you look closely, you can see the steps we built for the doorway leading into the home. We used low-maintenance AZEK for the steps, an extremely durable material perfect for any high-traffic area. Also, bringing indoor comforts outdoors, we installed recessed can lights in the ceiling as well as everyone’s favorite, the ceiling fan.

Inspired by the majesty of the Northern Lights and this family's everlasting love for Disney, this home plays host to enlighteningly open vistas and playful activity. Like its namesake, the beloved Sleeping Beauty, this home embodies family, fantasy and adventure in their truest form. Visions are seldom what they seem, but this home did begin 'Once Upon a Dream'. Welcome, to The Aurora.

This pergola style arbor is the perfect entree to the outdoor fireplace on this expansive outdoor living area. With stacked stone retaining walls to match the stacked stone outdoor fireplace and outdoor kitchen the effect is completely gorgeous. With masculine wrapped posts on the arbor and ornate curves on the arbor roof, the natural feel of this curved patio is carried on throughout the space. The stained concrete patio is enhanced with just the right shade of stain. Follow the meandering pathway back to the outdoor fireplace to finish the evening curled up by a gorgeous warm fire.
