Jay and Carrie Beth Shouse of Overland Park replaced a deck on the back of their house with a 400-square-foot, stamped-concrete patio.

Marjorie and Ed Kennamore built a porcelain tile patio behind their Leawood home. Carrie and Scott Lane of Prairie Village replaced their 1959 ranch home’s amoeba-shaped patio with a 700-square-foot patio on two levels. Ann (from left), Reser, Lizzy and Dick Hall relax with Spike, their Boston terrier, on the flagstone patio of their Prairie Village home.
After falling out of favor for a couple of decades when decks were all the rage, patios are back.

polywood patio furniture @ 4:28 pm:
I think the furniture you have on the patio is just as important as the patio itself. For those who want to make a statement about the environment and have long lasting furniture I would recommend polywood. Made from recycled milk jugs and quite classy. Ok, it’s just my opionion.
