Hardscaping Contractor in Bethesda

Outdoor Living Areas To Enjoy This Fall

However big or small, and whatever your taste and budget, well-designed outdoor living areas can make enjoying the outdoors even more special. Spending time outdoors can help you refresh your mind, re-connect with loved ones, and make a nice evening, an exceptional evening.

A well-designed outdoor seating area must take into account how the spaces will be used and the lifestyle of the users. A space for quiet reflection is very different than a place intended for entertainment. Large group of people or just a few, the space needs to fit it’s intention.

We present seven ideas on how to make your outdoor seating area perfect for you.

A Place In The Sun

Sometimes it is just nice to sit in the sun. An outdoor living space such as this one is ideal for reading, chilling and just enjoying a nice afternoon. The flagstone used in this project creates an elegant and relaxing  space to relax.

Made For Entertaining

Memories Are Made Here

Memories are made around the fire pit. Toasting marshmallows, telling stories, laughing at jokes. All of these things are possible in a well designed outdoor seating area with a fire pit.

Something Different

Make your outdoor living area unique. In this case we added a large (and very heavy) fire boulder to this patio. It is a one of a kind conversation starter.

Make It Beautiful

An outdoor living area  must be in a beautiful setting. Surround yourself with plants that flower and have interesting textures.
