In planning an outdoor space many finishes are available to be considered

Concrete, stone, tile, wood are all typical flooring selections. Brick or stone for outdoor fireplaces should coordinate with the back of the home. Wood beams and lighting for a covered or screened areas should be carefully selected and outdoor rated.

Furnishing an Outdoor Living Space

Furniture to fill your spaces depend on what you want to use the space for. Materials include wicker, rattan, teak wood, and resin. Colors can be brought out through the fabrics on this furniture, outdoor rugs, and shade umbrellas. Comfortable, upholstered swing beds are very popular for relaxing and reading a book or taking a siesta on a cool spring day. Televisions can now be mounted outside to watch the game with your friends without crowding the house. Seating areas with endless options are perfect for family gatherings, fireplaces and fire pits, outdoor kitchens, dining areas are also very usable spaces in the great outdoors.

Fireplaces or fire pits for gathering around on a chilly night in an outdoor patio area is a wonderful addition for another seating area. Built in with stone or purchased free-standing, you can hang out and roast marshmallows or just invite a great conversation.

If you are fortunate enough to have a pool at your home you can make it look great and feel as comfortable as a vacation resort with plush chaise lounges to lay out and soak in the sun then jump in the pool to cool off on a hot day. Don’t forget the sunscreen!
