Patios, decks and outdoor living
Photograph the backyard as it is today and try a patio, a pergola, a fire pit, raised beds or a play lawn. Compare layouts before you call a contractor.
AI Landscape Designer turns one photo of your backyard into AI backyard design options: describe a patio, deck, pergola, fire pit, outdoor kitchen, play lawn or vegetable garden, and Nano Banana 2 draws it into your yard while the house and the view stay. Each option costs 20 credits and a run makes up to 4. The pictures help you choose a layout; they are not measured plans.
Try paver, flagstone or gravel patios in different sizes, with or without a pergola, and see how much lawn they leave.
See a low deck off the back door, wide steps into the garden or a raised platform on a slope.
Place a fire pit circle, a grill station or a bar counter and check how they sit next to the house.
Add a row of evergreens, a slatted screen, climbers on a trellis or a shade tree where neighbors look in.
Stand where you step out into the yard, hold the phone sideways and include the fences.
Say where things go: the patio off the door, lawn in the middle, beds along the fence, a fire pit in the corner.
Generate options, keep the layout the household likes and download it to brief a contractor.
The patio is often the biggest backyard decision. These variations are worth one run each:
An AI picture shows the look, not the size. Before you buy materials, measure the space, mark the patio outline on the ground with a hose or string, and walk around it with the chairs you plan to use.
Check local rules for decks, fences and structures, and in the United States call 811 before digging footings or post holes.
Yes. Describe the patio's size, material, shape and what sits on it, and the model draws it into your backyard photo. Try two or three materials in one run to compare.
It can draw one into your photo to show the look. Whether a pool fits your yard, soil and local rules is a question for a pool builder, not an image model.
The house, the camera view and the property boundaries are kept. Fences change only if you ask, for example “replace the chain-link fence with horizontal cedar boards”.
No. It is a picture with no measurements. Use it to agree on a layout, then measure, check local rules and get a plan or a quote.
20 credits per option, about $0.18–$0.25 depending on how you buy credits. A run of 4 options costs 80 credits.
