While this patio is clearly a deck for a tropical resort, it still has some good ideas that you may use for your own residential patio or courtyard ideas.

As with all types of landscaping and garden design, consistency and repetition of elements helps create unity and continuity. In this design, the furniture as well as the trees and other plantings are matched and spaced uniformly. Uniform spacing isn't necessarily important but does help if you're looking for a symetrical element.

And of course, all things combined and especially the palm trees and plants is what gives this tropical landscaping its tropical flavor. It's the same with all design styles and garden themes. Many times, simply changing the type of plants will change the entire atmosphere of a garden or landscape.
