CREATE A GREAT OUTDOOR ROOM
A barbie is non-negotiable and an outdoor kitchen is the ultimate dream, but here are the other key elements you need for year-round alfresco living and dining.
• Provide cover with a roof, awning, shadesail or umbrella.
• Add a gas heater, fire pit, ceiling fan or misting system.
• Light paths and entertaining spaces, and add speakers.
• Choose furniture designed to withstand the elements.
