Fire Features That Give The Outdoor Space A Natural Center
Plan the fireplace or fire pit together with seating, circulation, views, and the surrounding hardscape.
Built Around The Site And The Way You Use It
A fire feature works best when it belongs to the larger outdoor room. Placement, seating, fuel, clearances, utilities, drainage, and future patio work should be considered together.
Questions That Shape The Project
Seating & Gathering
Describe loose chairs, a built seating edge, a formal fireplace wall, or a fire feature connected to a larger outdoor room.
Placement & Circulation
Consider doors, movement, views, overhead conditions, wind exposure, seating, and neighboring spaces.
Fuel & Utilities
Wood, gas, or another approved system changes design, trades, code, access, and operating considerations.
Surrounding Hardscape
Surface, drainage, steps, seat edges, and future phases should support the gathering rather than compete with it.
