Consider a few specific designs for your courtyard. Select wall colors that complement the surroundings. Consider features like mirrors to draw the eye and make a small space larger. Adorn spaces with plaques, friezes, sculpture, and statuary. Choose the proper lighting along the walls to add a sense of mystery and refinement. On the other hand, water features are a soothing element that produces a peaceful atmosphere. 

Create Elegant Simplicity with a Courtyard Paradise

This elegant yet straightforward courtyard idea involves using pavers and loose stones to create winding pathways among a few trees and shrubs.
