Herringbone Brick Patio
The centerpiece of the outdoor area is a sprawling brick patio. We utilized a classic herringbone pattern, providing a durable and visually dynamic surface that anchors the dining and lounging areas.

This Duxbury residence highlights a seamless collaboration between high-end carpentry and expert masonry. In partnership with FrameTechs, Inc., we transformed the area surrounding their custom-installed pergola into a cohesive, functional, and aesthetically striking outdoor living suite. The project focused on a sophisticated blend of natural materials—brick, granite, and fieldstone—to create a space that feels both timeless and perfectly integrated with the home's architecture.
Project Highlights
What We Built
02
Full-Length Granite Steps
To bridge the transition from the home to the patio, we installed massive, full-length granite steps. These provide a clean, modern edge that complements the white trim of the house while offering a permanent, "built-to-last" feel.
03
New England Fieldstone Retaining Wall
We constructed a low-profile, dry-stack style retaining wall using authentic New England fieldstone. The wall's organic texture and natural hues serve as a beautiful contrast to the precise lines of the brick and granite, while also defining the perimeter of the living space.
04
Complete Landscape Integration
Beyond the hardscape, our team finished the environment with strategic privacy plantings and professional hydroseeding to establish a lush, healthy lawn that ties the entire backyard together.
