Outdoor Living Room

Homeowners were looking for an innovative way to spruce up their outdoor living space by blending the warm and cozy comforts of a family room with elements of the great outdoors. This suburban family of four has decked out their backyard living area with all the familiar features of an indoor gathering space. Stepping out onto the back patio, you are greeted by the outdoor living room’s main attractions: a fire pit and TV wall covered by a grand pavilion that all feel like a natural extension of the home. The TV wall, fire pit and pillars all use Unilock Lineo Dimensional Stone, and are edged with a layer of Ledgestone Buff to articulate simplicity and does not detract from the main features of the space. The fire pit area is not only a source of warmth, but can be used as additional seating and a stunning focal point to gather around with family and friends. The grand pavilion’s overhead heaters ensure the space remains warm and cozy even during the coolest months of the year.

The TV wall is lined with tall planters and decorative patio lanterns to add a touch of color to the room, and paver lighting is installed under the pillars to add a touch of ambience to the scene. Extending to both sides of the outdoor living room reveals larger entertaining spaces, including a patio table and chairs for family meals, and an outdoor kitchen island for additional seating. The patio space uses Unilock Beacon Hill Smooth in XL that is laid out in varying patterns to distinguish between distinct dining and lounging areas. Dark bands of Mattoni pavers in Dark Charcoal are used to help delineate the different sections of the backyard. The end result is an outdoor retreat that is a feast for the eyes. Find more outdoor living room ideas to expand your living space.
