Outdoor Living in Autumn

As seasons change, so do our needs when it comes to outdoor living. Once you have created your dream outdoor living oasis, you will want to use it as often as possible, even on those slightly chillier days or nights as we head further into Autumn. Adding sources of heat and lighting will definitely help keep you and your guests outside when the mercury starts to drop, and you can enjoy your personal alfresco oasis all year round. This is where warm rugs, outdoor g as heaters and outdoor fire pits are the dream addition to your patio.

Whether you’re entertaining al fresco after the sun has gone down, or you want to snuggle up with your family and chat into the early hours, a fire pit is the ultimate focal point and creates an irresistibly ambient glow for cosy Autumn evenings outdoors. When the light is fading and the evening grows cooler, there’s nothing better than to relax and unwind watching the flames dancing – a truly mesmerising experience. In fact, a study by the University of Alabama claims that the effect of fire helps us become calmer and more sociable, and even causes our blood pressure to drop! Definitely a great reason to add a fire pit to the mix when creating your al fresco lounging space.

Most of us look to create an outdoor living area that is a true extension of your home where we can relax and socialise. Much like indoor fireplaces, fire pits provide the perfect focal point for an outdoor sitting area, and they look fantastic surrounded by outdoor sofas or sectional seating topped with cushions and throws. Nothing draws a crowd more than a good fire pit setup, and we offer an incredible line of modern and sophisticated concrete outdoor fire pits.

We offer three different sizes; rectangular, square and round. These gorgeous fire pits can be hooked up to your own gas or with an attachment for a propane tank. What’s even better is that we designed a storage container that will cover an unsightly propane tank so that it will look like, and function like one of our stunning concrete side tables. We use a high-quality concrete and resin mix to make our concrete outdoor furniture and accessories, and the mechanics and inner workings of the fire pits are extremely well built and easy to use.

Concrete Fire Pit

Our incredible Concrete Rectangle Fire Pit is a popular choice with good reason. It’s impressive and luxurious and will add a contemporary and polished look to any space. Create a deep seating sectional sofa that surrounds the fire pit so that guests can gather and enjoy the warmth and ambiance. Super comfy deep seating pieces coupled with the sharp lines of our fire pits make for a stunning and contemporary look. Alternatively, add multiple relaxing chairs and accent tables for a warm and inviting vibe that you and your guests won’t want to leave. Either way, these classy fire pits will make your sure space is luxurious and comfortable for all of your guests. Add a couple of our Blok Concrete Candlesticks for a little ambient lighting and you have a truly luxurious outdoor oasis that can be used almost year round.
