When you build outdoor rooms, you have a couple of options in how you approach the décor. You can either work with the existing style of your house and garden to create seamless transitions between different zones, which can greatly enhance your sense of space. Alternatively, you can create something that is deliberately different – think very modern extensions on older houses – to take yourself, family and guests into something new in your outdoor room.

Outdoor rooms can be useful all year round. They provide a cool shaded place for entertaining in the summer, and can be nice and cosy for winter as well. Here’s how you can construct your outdoor room for year-round comfort, and make it warm and inviting for the winter months.

Outdoor rooms tend to be multi-purpose spaces used for everything from entertaining to just hanging out with the family. This usually means outdoor rooms require some clever storage, so they don’t end up permanently cluttered and untidy.

These days, most of us expect so much more from our backyards, and a functional outdoor space is often desired. Apart from being a relaxing place to entertain family and friends, a well-designed outdoor area can also add appeal to your home if you ever choose to sell.

Wood fired pizza ovens have become a popular choice for outdoor cooking. They make a great focal point for entertaining areas, and allow you to cook pizzas authentically. And pizza ovens are not just for pizza either; many types of food can be cooked in them, from whole fish to delicate desserts. Wood fired pizza ovens are particularly good for roasting meats and slow cooking casseroles.
