I'd like to create a little relaxation oasis in my apt patio

Any suggestions on things that might turn a 7X7 square into my little refuge from the world?
I am starting from scratch...any suggestions are welcome

1. Get a very comfortable patio chair or chaise lounge

Must be very comfortable.

Surround your area with your favorite colors. Get 3 or 4 candle lanterns. Put a portable CD boombox out there and have a supply of relaxing music on CD for when you are out there.

2. Do you want privacy?

Depending on what you want to do, you can get a screen, or a large plant or small tree in a planter to provide a block for wandering eyes. You can get a small water feature to make that soothing babbling brook sound. :shrug:
