Inspiration: Todos Santos Red Patio

060208_red.jpgThis piece of inspiration comes compliments of my dad who sent this to me from Todos Santos in Baja where he has some friends. He wanted me to see their outdoor living area...and how! They chose red cushions to warm up their mainly concrete patio...

 
 

What a bold choice, it looks so inviting against the lush (kind of crazy) green backdrop of banana leaves and grass. And it keeps the concrete slab from looking sad or too harsh. I'm thinking of stealing this idea (on a much, much smaller scale). I can imagine evenings out around a fire losing track of time and enjoying the starry night above.

The seat is too deep to comfortably lean back, and even if you could, the back of the seat is too short. I love red, but I love leaning back even more.
