– Positioning an outdoor room against the house isn’t always the best choice, especially if a section of your home or plantings obscure your yard’s most expansive view. Instead, locate sitting areas so they provide a clear view of your yard’s longest dimension.
– Steps or small platforms are a subtle way to create multiple outdoor rooms in a tight space. Increase the visual separation by changing flooring materials between rooms.
– An intriguing architectural detail, such as a trellis, arbor, or statue, at the end of your property adds an instant attention-getter, taking the focus away from the yard’s small proportions.
– If you just don’t have the time or money to complete your perfect outdoor room this season, don’t sweat it. Complete your outdoor room in stages, focusing on building the deck or patio in one season and outfitting the space in another. Be inventive with room furnishings and splurge only where you can.
