The Best in Outdoor Living Spaces

Not everyone is outdoorsy—some folks like TV, books, and sitting on the couch. The comfort of the home might be most important for some of us.

But, outdoor living spaces are designed to bridge the gap between the outdoorsy and indoorsy so both people can come together and, if not sing kumbaya, sit around a fire pit and enjoy a meal al fresco.

What can you do with your yard? With all the amenities available, the better questions are what can’t you do or what do you want to do? So open up the door and meet Fair Lawn outside.

How Do You Want to Use Your Yard?

Your outdoor living should reflect you. Who are you? Ok, that’s too big, so let’s narrow it down to what you want out of your landscape.

We’ve got features for whatever your walk of life is, even if that walk of life is walking.

The Active Thinker: Meandering Walks

Walkways are a great start for an outdoor living space. They are the gateway between natural and manufactured and can be used to lead you from one to the other.

We use walkways on larger properties as a pleasant way to travel the grounds. We can also use them to frame your landscaping and keep people from walking on what you’ve taken such good care of!

The Artist: Appreciating Beauty

Once you’re outside, you’ll want to see some nature! Part of outdoor living spaces is the outdoors.

One way to draw focus to the beauty of your yard while still including it in your living area is to include retaining walls. Retaining walls can house gardens or prevent erosion while also being beautiful themselves.

You can add functionality to the walls by using it as tiered seating on your patio.

The Entertainer: Hosting

Your outdoor space is there for outdoor living! If you’re an event host (or hostess) with the most, then there are many features you’ll want to consider.

Primarily what you’ll be looking for in your space is comfort and a way to serve guests efficiently. So you’ll need bought or built-in seating. You’ll likely also have a patio where people will gather.

The Chef: What’s Cooking

Finally, what’s a gathering without food? You have a few options for hosting a dinner party or other events. Of course, you can use your indoor kitchen and bring the food outside for your guests, but where is the fun in that?

We’re talking about outdoor living spaces here; part of living is cooking and eating! And if you’re eating outside, why not also cook outdoors? Several features are available to make your yard into a kitchen that will suit your basic or more elaborate tastes.

The I’d Rather Be Inside Folks

As I said, not everyone likes to be outside. That’s ok. We can add the comforts of the inside to the outside.

Whether that means providing electricity, shade, or comfy seating, there’s no reason even the most devoted indoorsman can’t be kept happy.

Outdoor Living Space Pieces

So you’ve figured out which type of outdoor living person you are. Now you need to put the right pieces together to suit your needs.

Hardscaping

Hardscaping is the basic building block (if you’ll excuse the pun) of outdoor living. You’ll use it to create patios, walking paths, and most anything else.

Your particular hardscaping can suit your style by using one or a combination of the following materials: pavers, brick, stone, and concrete. With the availability and versatility, we can make your space look however you’ve imagined it!

Firepits & Outdoor Kitchens

I don’t always have firepits at my outdoor gathering, but when I do, they are lit. Sorry.

Firepits extend the usability of your space by providing warmth into the cool season and light into the evening. Plus, everyone loves a fire! You’d be surprised how it brings a party together.

For your griller or chef, outdoor kitchens are becoming very popular! So whether you want a grill or go all out with electricity and running water, you can make your outdoor kitchen rival your indoor one!
