2. Don't forget about shade. Shade is essential for enjoying your outdoor space. Consider installing a patio cover or pergola to provide protection from the sun's rays.

4. Add lighting. Proper lighting can transform your outdoor space into a cozy and inviting place to spend time. Consider installing outdoor lighting fixtures or string lights to create ambiance and make your space more usable at night.
