Installing a brick paver patio outside your Shelby Township home is a wonderful way to create beautiful living space that you can enjoy during warmer weather. But one aspect of patio design that many people do not think about is the centerpiece. Like many other major home designs, you need to build around a centerpiece that can be the focus of your design – and the focus of the attention of those who are on the patio.

If you are having trouble thinking of a centerpiece for your Macomb brick paver patio, here are a few ideas:

• A table or gathering area. This is the simplest – and most common – of brick paver patio centerpieces. By focusing on the gathering area, you encourage visitors to sit and relax while everyone enjoys each other’s company. This is a great centerpiece idea for those who are very social and enjoy good conversation with family and friends. It is also very easy to implement – designing the patio around a large open area is easy to do and you just need to add some nice chairs and a good outdoor table, and you’ve created a perfect gathering place for anyone who wants to sit outside your Washington Twp. home.
• A garden. Do you have a green thumb? Why not incorporate your garden into your brick paver patio? Greenery and plant life create elegant centerpieces for the patio, and can even be conversation pieces for those who are gathering outside. Plant some nice flowers or bushes that attract the eye, and you create and atmosphere of relaxation for everyone sitting outside on your brick paver patio.
• A fire pit or fireplace. If you like to sit outside on your patio at night, then the fire pit is a perfect centerpiece for your patio. A seating area can be centered around the location of the fire pit, so everyone can huddle around the warmth and enjoy the sparks of the crackling wood as the sun goes down. The great part about having a fire pit as your centerpiece is that it encourages more use of your brick paver patio, because the fire can keep guests warm even during colder Michigan nights in the spring or the fall.

Designing your brick paver patio is simple once you have a good centerpiece idea. Choose from any of these, or create your own type of centerpiece, and you will see the design come together quickly.
