Are you like so many Naperville residents who look forward to the fall season with its warm days, cool, crisp evenings, and beautiful colors? We’re so fortunate to live in this area! And, what better way to enjoy this beautiful season than in your outdoor living space. Create a space to relax, entertain, and get in touch with the outdoors, right in your own backyard.
Especially popular at this time of year are outdoor fireplaces. These can be used virtually year-round as the centerpiece of a seating group. It becomes that welcoming area for family and friends to gather. Football games, holiday gatherings, or perfecting your s’more techniques are just a few ways you’ll enjoy this living space. Add some outdoor lighting, and enjoy evenings outdoors, as well.
Outdoor fireplaces might just be the start of a bigger plan. Patios, seating walls and walkways made from your choice of pavers create a defined outdoor room that can be accessorized to suit your needs. Many homeowners are considering pergolas, half walls and fountains to further define and customize their spaces. Outdoor grills or pizza ovens are a first step to creating a full outdoor kitchen, affording a creative way to entertain in summer and winter. Don’t forget about your landscape materials. Mature trees and well-placed shrubs provide shelter, privacy and a breathtaking show of color during the fall season. Well-placed lighting among your landscape materials adds drama, safety and warmth to the area. Pathway lights and security lights can be added to finish the space.
