Backyard Fire Pit Ideas and Designs

Written By Glenn Prescot

Having a nice backyard to your house surely is a great benefit. It’s always nice to hang out and feel the breeze, bask in the sun and enjoy some quality time in good company. A beautifully designed lounge area will certainly turn into a major center of interest and activity. A nice fire pit, on the other hand, will prove to be the perfect focal point for your outdoor backyard lounge area.

A fire pit would surely be a great addition to your backyard design. It will not only look good, but it will keep you nice and warm even when it’s a little cool outside. It will be just the place to hang around with your whole family and friends, so be sure to have a number of seating options laying around – armchairs, benches and the like.

A fire pit can be designed in a number of shapes and styles. It can be more traditional or more modern depending on the style of your house and your personal preferences. Most fire pits are round in shape, but you can have a custom design, as well – semi-round and square shapes can look just as beautiful.

Most fire pits are made of stone, since that is a highly durable material that is also fire resistant. You can use stone bricks and blocks, or rough unhewn stones to build your design. A not so traditional approach is to go with a metal fire bowl – it will certainly stand out as more unconventional.

Now, get ready to feel inspired and have a look at our collection of backyard fire pit design ideas.
