When choosing how to decorate your outdoor living space, you should consider the purpose for the area. When choosing the best outdoor living design for your home, ask yourself these questions:
- Is it primarily for aesthetic purposes?
- Do you intend to cook outdoors?
- Are you interested in hosting parties with friends and family?
- What would interest your kids the most?
Answering these questions (and more) should get you thinking of some great ideas for your outdoor living space. To help you further, let’s take a look at 7 outdoor living design ideas that are trending in 2021.
1. Round fire pit
A round fire pit is a particularly good idea if you live in an area that experiences colder late fall and winter seasons. Regardless, a round fire pit is a fashionable and practical option to add to your outdoor living space. You can arrange chairs around the fire pit for fun gatherings with friends and family.
2. Outdoor TV
An outdoor TV is a great idea if you like to watch sports (or your favorite TV show) with family and friends. It offers a unique area to watch big games without cluttering up your kitchen and living room with bottles, plates, etc. Of course, you will need an ideal cover over your patio for this to work. Adding some extra speakers would be nice as well.
3. Bar and grill
Adding a bar-style patio is great if you enjoy having drinks after a long day of work. This goes really well with the outdoor TV design for your patio as well (see above)l, creating the ultimate space to host friends and family for get-togethers.
4. Ceiling fans
A ceiling fan is a great way to keep your patio cool during the warm summer months. This allows you to sit outside comfortably for hours, which is useful if you enjoy working on your computer outside or if your kids enjoy playing outside on hot days.
5. Sectional sofa
A sectional sofa is a fantastic way to add comfort and style to your home’s outdoor living area. This also works well when paired with the round fire pit, particularly if you invest in a round sectional sofa. Be sure not to forget the plants, throw pillows and fun lighting to make your sectional sofa unique for your home.
6. Wooden dining table
A wooden dining table allows you to enjoy your meals away from the sometimes stuffy indoor environment. It is a creative way to encourage meals as a family, and a wooden outdoor dining table adds aesthetic value to your patio. Be sure to pair this with ceiling fans attached to your patio roof for an even more comfortable experience.
7. Plants
Plants are the perfect accessory to highlight your outdoor living space. Natural plants are much easier to grow around your patio because of the easy access to natural light and not having to worry about cluttering up your floors. Plants also go well with quality landscaping and flowers as well.
