What the job involved
- Free-standing circular patio set away from the house
- Central fire pit with seating for four in chairs
- Low perimeter wall retaining the raised pad and seating another six
The circle is set away from the house rather than attached to it, which is the right call on a property that already had a pool terrace doing the job of an entertaining space. This is the other kind of outdoor room, the one you use in October, facing inward at the fire rather than outward at the yard.
The low wall around the perimeter is structural and social at once: it retains the raised pad against the surrounding grade and it seats another half-dozen people when the four chairs are taken. Sized so that a person on the wall and a person in a chair are at roughly the same height, which is the detail that decides whether a fire pit space actually gets used.
