Here is our patio/deck. Basically covers entire back yard. Concrete is stained slab. Deck area is ipe, a very dense brazilian hardwood. Pergola is cedar. Cement areas existed when we bought the house. Hired pros last summer who added decking, pergola, extended patio stairs, added bbq island, added gas firepit and seating area around firepit. We love it. Kind of a "New Orleans" courtyard feel. All containers are drip irrigated so we can turn on the timer and leave.

These are the pictures that we got from the realtor's website when we were buying the house. Nothing has changed. The pergola really helps from getting a direct hit from the sun. The lattice gives us some privacy but not enough. The decking is synthetic decking. The grass is synthetic.

We used Travertine for the deck area. It actually goes back into a Lanai area that is covered partially by the roof overhang. The travertine doesn't get hot and it's not slippery so no one slips and falls.
