Great Landscape Design Incorporating Fire Pits

Thinking about redesigning or improving your outdoor entertainment space? A fire pit can enhance the atmosphere of your back yard experience. I use the word experience because sitting around a fire is a social event. You chat it up with family and friends, eat, drink and be merry. The ambiance is heightened with the warm glow of the flame, and we as humans have always been attracted to the fascination of fire.

I found a great site which shows how fire pits can be incorporated into the overall landscape design of your backyard. Its not just about plopping a fire pit in the middle of your patio, although weve seen it done, and it works, but these are some examples of how to incorporate fire pits into the overall layout and design of your entertainment experience: www.naturescapedesign.com/photogallery.htm.

Notice how most of the patio designs are built around the fire pits as if they are the center of attention, the meeting ground or the communal focus point. The designs highlight and feature the contours of the fire pits. The stone work of the surrounding patio becomes more expansive as it reflects the entire space, not just the fire pit. These are some great designs to keep in mind if you are planning on building or renovating your outdoor patio.
