From Snoozefest to Stellar: How to Give Your Patio Some Major Style
Nothing can make you want to spend more time outside than a luxurious patio. Spending time outside alone or with your friends and family is good for your health, your home life and your overall wellbeing. And aside from helping you relax and have fun – a well-designed patio also increases the value of your property. And what can be more luxurious than patios with lovely outdoor furniture around beautiful fire pits and next to spa pools?
Coastal Furniture
Any entertainment area needs furniture. Outdoor furniture is as diverse as any, with a wide range of styles, materials and colours to choose from. There are several things to take into account when you are choosing furniture for an outdoor area, and the most important one, is, of course, the ability of the material to withstand the elements. Naturally, the furniture pieces should also work well with the rest of your outdoor décor, as well as with your home style.
If your goal is to build a luxurious patio there are many reasons why you should choose coastal outdoor furniture, especially if you want it to remind you of warm days and summer, and if you intend to place it next to a spa. Stylish coastal patio furniture is often made of teak or wicker, two of the most popular materials for outdoor furniture.
The reason why these materials are considered to be perfect is that they are weather resistant. They can withstand rain, snow and the sun, without losing their strength. Wicker and teak don’t rust, like metal furniture. Moreover, they are lightweight enough so you can move them around easily, but not so lightweight that they would tip over from wind or from slight shifts of balance. These coastal outdoor furniture pieces are also sturdy, durable and long-lasting.
To create an even more luxurious patio style, you can decorate the furniture in many different ways. Depending on whether the area is protected from rain and the sun, you can add things like rugs, throw pillows, and other types of decorations. Furniture has a huge impact on the overall style, as they tend to attract the eye. This is why aesthetics matters a lot. Coastal style outdoor furniture not only looks beautiful, but it also ages beautifully. It often has a wood colour, which makes it really easy to mix and match with any other colour.
Fire Pit
As we mentioned, there are many ways to decorate your patio. However, when it comes to adding luxury into your style, you can’t do much better than adding an ethanol fire pit. Whether you get one that stands on its own, one that’s a part of a table, place one in the middle of the table or place it between the furniture pieces instead of a table, fire pits are a great investment in your style and your comfort.
Moreover, if you invest in an ethanol fire pit, you will also be able to enjoy your stunning patio even when the weather is colder. Even though they are incredibly decorative, fire pits are primarily used to keep the area warm. Gas fire pits also come in many different shapes, styles, sizes, and so on, which means that regardless of how big your patio or the part of the garden where you are creating an entertainment area is, you will be able to find something suitable.
Fire pits can be made of many different materials including concrete, teak, stainless steel, and so on, and they come in different colours. With so many options, and amazing designs, which are simple, yet striking, it will be really easy to find a model that will fit into any kind of style. They are great centrepieces, that are eye-catching without being too flashy, but rather elegant and sophisticated.
Ethanol fire pits are the best option out there for many reasons. Not only do they look very luxurious, but also, they are environmentally friendly. Ethanol is a by-product of plants, which makes it a renewable fuel. One very attractive thing about it is that much like wood, ethanol burns with orange flame, so you get the same beautiful intimate, romantic and relaxing ambience, without the ignition troubles, the mess, and more importantly, without the carbon monoxide and the smoke.
Spa Pool
Any body of water can be the most relaxing thing for people, whether it’s simply looking at it, soaking or swimming in it. Water also provides a lot of opportunities for fun activities, and it comes with a set of incredible benefits for your physical and mental health. All of this is probably the reason why many people nowadays want to install spa pools in their contemporary homes.
Both spas and pools can be a great improvement to any home in terms of style and resell value. Nevertheless, spa pools not only combine hydrotherapy and swimming in one luxurious item, but they are also more convenient for a lot of homeowners. Mainly because, spa pools give you the best of both worlds without taking as much space, which makes them great for patios, for smaller gardens and even for indoors.
Clearly, combining a nice coastal outdoor setting with a beautiful fire pit and a spa pool will make for the most luxurious patio you could imagine. However, aesthetics and hedonism aren’t the only things that should inspire you to go for them. Investing in a spa pool will change your life for the better in many ways, and especially in terms of your overall health.
Swimming is one of the best full-body workouts, which can keep you strong and fit. Both soaking in hot water and the hydrotherapy provided by the pumps in the spa, on the other hand, can have many positive impacts on your physical and mental health. Moreover, the buoyancy of the water helps alleviate pain in the muscles and joints, by reducing the pressure, soaking in hot water improves blood circulation, which comes with many other health benefits, and the full-body hydromassage not only feels amazing but also provides pain-relief and stress-relief.
