Outdoor living spaces are becoming a green trend for homeowners. Whether you’re surrounded by a garden or deck, these spaces can add to the quality of your life and even keep you in touch with nature. These outdoor rooms can be created according your own tastes and lifestyles. In designing your outdoor living space, take into consideration how you will use it.
Are you a gardener? You might want to create a cottage garden with lots of flowers, a sitting bench and a tree or two for shade.
Are you an entertainer? Then your outdoor room should probably have a built-in bar, a grilling area and plenty of counter space. Fireplaces and fire pits also offer a good spot to gather around.
Don’t forget to add patio furniture with lots of colorful cushions. And outdoor lighting should also be a part of the plan.
Whatever you do, just keep in mind that outdoor living spaces are not a one-size-fits all approach. Your space should be customized and specific. To see examples of our work in the Kansas City area, visit our Facebook photo gallery.
