Outdoor Inspiration: Small Backyard Patio with BIG Style

A modern gas fire pit projects a custom, built-in look when placed atop similarly shaded pavers. This look is easy to replicate with our Lunar Bowl fire pit by Elementi. Surrounded by lounge chairs also from the Kingsley Bate St Tropez collection, the area has a cohesive, simple sophisticated style. Adding to that simplicity, the homeowners chose to replace their grass lawn with artificial turf, making this a low-maintenance outdoor space.

Near the rear property fence just beyond the pergola is the compact outdoor kitchen featuring appliances and grill by Lynx and a ceramic Kamado-style smoker. Proximity to the outdoor dining area makes meal prep and serving easy and allows the cook to be right in the middle of the action.

Beneath the soaring pergola – complete with an outdoor weatherproof fan – is a large dining table that seats 8 guests. The weathered teak table from the Kingsley Bate Valhalla collection pairs perfectly with woven all-weather wicker chairs from the Sag Harbor collection to create a casual-chic dining space.

It’s not often that we’re able to get aerial images of our installations, but on this project, the designers were so delighted by how it turned out that they came back and shot the property by drone and shared these awesome images from above with us as well. What do you think?
