Lighting changes how people feel in any room. Research shows that 21.6% of individuals with generalized anxiety feel physically uncomfortable around fluorescent lights, making mood lighting essential for any relaxation space.
People build pergolas in their backyards to add character and create unique places to hang out. Each features at least four columns and beams that make a roofing grid.
No one wants to hang out where the ground remains soggy after a rain shower. Patio pavers solve that problem. They’re flat pieces of brick, stone or concrete that form a rugged floor for a patio.
People love summer because it’s one of the two annual seasons when plants thrive. A patio might not look complete until it has flowers growing in pots on outdoor tables or in the yard.
There’s nothing better than kicking back after a long day. Hammocks are an excellent resource for doing that outside. Homeowners only need two sturdy trees at least 10 feet apart and a carabiner to create the ultimate hammock getaway.
Summer doesn’t feel complete until someone breaks out marshmallows, chocolate and graham crackers for s’mores. Anyone can enjoy them in their backyard by adding a fire pit to their patio area.
Bench swings make it easy to recline on a patio and get a slight breeze during summer heat waves. Homeowners can build one to their patio’s specifications by following a video guide or buying one from an outdoor furniture or hardware store.
Relaxing spaces need a soothing ambiance. Although anyone can create a laid-back vibe with mood lighting, comfortable seating, and shade, a fountain lends a luxury feel to any patio.
Anyone can get their backyard ready for the sunny season and all the parties they want to host. These additions transform patios into serene getaways on any budget.
