Frame It With Brick Detail

For a sophisticated architectural finish, a brick surround makes the perfect complement to a covered patio as we can see on this addition in Quito, Ecuador. PJCArchitecture designed the fully covered, indoor/outdoor living room with an open facade, connecting the home seamlessly with the surroundings. 

A permanent covered patio as part of a larger renovation means you can install more elaborate lighting options, too. For elevated design interest, layer multiple options like long, shapely pendants with sconces and spotlights, for atmosphere when the area isn't bathed in natural light.
