In our home each room serves different functions. Your formal dining room inspires a feeling of celebratory anticipation of Thanksgiving Dinner, or your family room invites everyone to lounge in front of the fire. Why not bring those same concepts outside? These homeowners in Midlothian had a deck with room for dining and grilling...and not much else. They wanted a larger space to entertain, but would have a cozy feel when just the family was present. The solution was an outdoor firepit. An outdoor fireplace or firepit creates a feeling of intimacy and allows you and your guests enjoy the outdoors even on a cool evening.
