Does a beautiful backyard occupy some space in your dreams, yet yours happens to be on the small side? Don't worry! Even a compact space can grow into a wonderful outdoor haven with some clever **[backyard hardscaping ideas](https://outdoormakeover.net/service/hardscape/)**. Hardscaping refers to the non-living features of landscaping, including patios, walkways, and fire pits. Here are some easy hardscaping ideas to maximize both style and function in your backyard:

1. **Define Your Space With a Patio**

A patio is a nice little area to relax, dine, or entertain friends. Use an inexpensive material such as pavers or stamped concrete. Lighter-colored stones will make the space appear larger. Curved edges in your patio design make the edge soft and, therefore, more inviting; this softens straight lines. 

2. **Get Creative With Seating Walls**

Seating walls enable additional space within a small yard but also function as a retaining wall in uneven terrain or as a high-backed built-in bench when placed behind a fire pit or patio. Choices of natural, really authentic-looking materials, such as stone or brick, provide a classical look.

3. **Don't Forget The Fire!**

Add in a firepit, no matter the size, to create an instant gathering spot. Go big with a built-in firepit made of fire-resistant bricks or go small and simple with a pre-fabricated firepit. Just be sure to check on your local fire codes before installing a fire pit.
