Outdoor Living Spaces

It is Summer in Calgary and that has us longing for our outdoor spaces. Be that a covered deck, an outdoor kitchen, or a cozy sitting nook; Summertime in Calgary is short-lived, and we like to make the most out of the warm weather. Your outdoor living space is an extension of your home and can serve as an area to entertain or just relax. Hopefully, this blog will inspire your own outdoor living space.

Outdoor Living Rooms

An outdoor living room is a great way to incorporate the beautiful summer days and the comforts of your living room. Relax in your space in front of a lovely fire or sit back and watch a movie. The possibilities for your outdoor living room are endless. I love the idea of lounging beneath the stars watching a movie. Adding a fire pit or fireplace can add that cozy warmth for chilly Summer evenings, allowing you to stay outside well after the sun has gone down. It can also extend the use of your outdoor living room well into the Fall. Be sure to add personality to your space, by utilizing throws and pillows, add some lighting, and don’t forget to accessorize.

Outdoor Kitchen

An outdoor Kitchen offers a unique entertainment experience. Enjoy the outdoors, a meal, and keep your home’s interior clean. An outdoor kitchen can be as simple as a BBQ and seating or as elaborate as your imagination can create. Think outside the traditional BBQ and think about a pizza oven or meat smoker. What about a tiki bar for beverages? Your outdoor kitchen can be a fun space for entertaining and have features that you wouldn’t necessarily see in your home kitchen.

Cozy Nooks

No matter how large your home is, it can start to feel small and cramped. Especially after a long Winter stuck inside. Transforming your patio, balcony, or front porch into a quiet nook, meditation area, or beautiful garden is an easy way to extend your living space.

Whether you hire a professional to create your new outdoor space or create something yourself, get outside and enjoying the Summer.
