Get Fired Up! Designing Outdoor Fireplaces and Fire pits

Designing Outdoor Fireplaces and Fire Pits to Keep You Warm Cool Nights

There’s nothing worse than entertaining on a warm spring day, with everyone enjoying your outdoor set up, only to be driven away after the sun sets by a unpleasant evening chill. Instead of cursing the cool temps, relish them with friends and family cozied up around an outside fireplace or fire pit.

Outdoor fireplaces can be dramatic, a focal point of your yard. A fireplace can create a sense of place, making your outdoor space feel less like a backyard and more like an outdoor room. They can also be fueled by either gas or wood.

Fire pits come in different sizes, styles and fuel types. Gas fire pits have become increasingly popular because they’re both environmentally friendly and easy to operate, but wood fire pits appeal to traditionalists who like the smell and sentiment of that experience. Fire pits can also be stationary or portable to suit your needs. Either way you go, it’s pretty easy to warm up to the idea of a fire pit or fireplace at outdoors.
