Admin • February 13, 2023

As the days start to get longer and warmer, it’s time to get ready to make the most of your outdoor living space. Whether you want to spruce up your patio, create a relaxing outdoor oasis, or just enjoy more time outside, there are plenty of outdoor living trends that can help you achieve your goals. Here are five outdoor living trends for springtime that you won’t want to miss out on.


One of the hottest outdoor trends is creating an outdoor oasis. People are taking advantage of their backyard and transforming it into a space where they can relax and entertain with friends and family. To create an outdoor oasis, consider adding comfortable seating such as lounge chairs or couches; add some lighting like string lights or torches; and add some color by adding potted plants or flowers around the area. You can also invest in a fire pit for some added warmth and ambiance.


Another trend that is gaining traction is adding privacy to your outdoor space. Whether you want to block out the rest of the world so that you can relax in peace or if you just want some extra security from nosy neighbors, adding privacy screens such as lattice panels or trellises can be a great way to achieve this goal. Planting trees or bushes around the perimeter of your yard can also provide additional privacy while still letting in natural light.


You don’t need a huge backyard to enjoy nature—you can bring it right inside! One popular trend right now is incorporating elements from nature into indoor spaces by using natural materials like wood and stone in furniture pieces or accent walls. You can also incorporate plants into various rooms throughout your home for a more organic look and feel; terrariums are especially popular right now because they’re low maintenance but still bring life into any room!


No matter what type of outdoor living space you have—large or small—there are plenty of ways to make it special this season! From creating an oasis with comfortable seating areas to bringing nature inside through plants and natural materials, there are plenty of ways to take advantage of these five hot outdoor trends this springtime season! With these tips in mind, we hope you have all the inspiration needed to make the most out of your outdoor living space this year!

At S&S Design Build, we love helping homeowners turn unused outdoor areas into spaces they can truly enjoy—and this recently completed project is a great example of that. For this backyard transformation, we started by extending the existing concrete patio to create a larger and more functional outdoor area. From there, we installed a patio cover to provide shade and protection from the elements, making the space more comfortable throughout the year. To complete the project, we added a screen enclosure , creating an outdoor living area that offers fresh air without the inconvenience of bugs and debris. The end result is a backyard that feels like an extension of the home—perfect for: Relaxing with family Hosting friends and gatherings Enjoying morning coffee outdoors Creating a more usable space year-round Outdoor upgrades like patio covers, screen enclosures, and extended patios not only improve comfort but can also enhance the overall enjoyment and functionality of your home.
