A hundred years ago in Tucson's Presidio neighborhood, it was common to smell mesquite smoke wafting over a courtyard wall on winter evenings. This outdoor living nook was designed as a modern version of that classic barrio garden, complete with a mesquite-burning fireplace. Exposed adobe seat walls (capped with concrete for durability) and a herringbone-patterned saguaro-rib patio ceiling are a nod to the neighborhood's heritage.

Who says the back porch has to be attached to the house? One Memphis family enjoys theirs, which is nestled in the heart of the back yard. Although the structure was part of the property when the family bought the home several years ago, its size and scale seem ideal for today. The screened porch section measures 8 x 12 feet; exposed beams on the inside give it an open feel. To the left, an enclosed room that's used for storing outdoor equipment takes up another eight feet. - Integrated Cabinets
