Designed
for
carefree wheelchair access,
this
patio features a
level threshold only 3/8" high.
And
once outside,
the
level surface continues.
The concrete
slab extends and
meets the graveled
area, which
is
also
at
the same level.
No
more stubbed toes or spilled
drinks, whether moving from house
to patio or from patio
to
yard.
The
patio's
configuration
is also solar oriented
to protect
the window-walled
room against
the summer sun,
but allowing
the warm rays
to enter during winter
months.
The
recessed ceiling lights
provide soft, glare-free
lighting during
evening meals or conversation.
