The high demand for outdoor fireplace
ideas has led us to add another category to our photo gallery.
The large boulders create a more natural, rugged look for this
mountainside firepit. The mortared flagstone has been built around the
boulders to
blend them together nicely.

face for interest. Shrubs planted behind the fireplace soften the
privacy wall while supporting the main feature with texture, shape, and
colour.

An outdoor fireplace feature provides height and a little privacy to
this backyard. The natural stone shows nicely with the gravel
ground
cover and the desert background.

Seating built into the wall makes for a cozy little sunken firepit area
off the main patio. Patio pavers with mixed colours in a random
pattern tie everything together.

A formal mortared flagstone firepit area. The rounded bench seating
accents the firepit. The plants behind the bench soften complete the
corner
of the yard by softening it up.

A simple backyard firepit centered in a flagstone patio area. Notice how
there is just the right amount of space on the patio if the chairs adjust in or
out according to comfort from the heat.

A small patio area for a BBQ and outdoor fireplace well designed to
incorporate the distant mountains in the scene while taking the eye off
the block privacy wall. Good designers can always control the eyes by
adding positive
features instead of hiding less desirable ones.

This creative little nook has blended many different materials like
flagstone, brick, mortar, and even a boulder into the firepit wall
itself. A nice garden
softens the large privacy wall between the
properties.

A formal yard is well lit to accent the walkways and trees. Firepits
have the
ability to provide the natural element that will compliment any
yard, no matter how formal it is.

A less formal flagstone patio and firepit can have a lot of character. This large backyard of an older yard was a perfect match for this feature.

A more formal firepit that adds interest to a large privacy wall with
it's shape and materials. Plantings were added to complete the feature
and add some colour. Firepits don't always have to be round.

Although
it is not exactly in proportion with it's surroundings, we have this
picture to show you a nice blend off flagstone and small boulders. The
two have been combined nicely to give this fireplace lots of character.
