DESIGnING YOUR OUTDOOR LIVING SPACE
in the ALTOONA, STATE COLLEGE, JOHNSTOWN, BEDFORD AND HOlLIDAYSBURG PENNSYLVANIA Area
Having a clear vision of what you want your outdoor living space to be before you begin building is important. The biggest mistake people make is they don't look at the project as a whole, and end up with an overall result that doesn't flow together well or the pieces don't compliment one another. That is where Tussey's designers come in. With decades of experience, and personal dedication to creating something that not only has lifetime durability and functions well; but is also beautiful, and you're just left saying "Wow!"
Think of the structural components of outdoor living spaces in terms of their counterparts in indoor rooms: floor, walls and ceiling. Only for outdoor living spaces, the term, “structural” is used metaphorically. This will help you sort the right ideas and elements into place. Furthermore, think of the materials you need to assemble the floor, wall or ceiling of an outdoor living space as the “building blocks.” Floors Grass, Ground cover (such as Thyme), Mulch, Patios, Decks Walls Hedges, Lattice Screens, Fences, Informal Hedges Ceilings Arbors and pergolas, The canopies of shade trees, Decorative canvas canopies It's a good idea to decide beforehand what you want the main function of your outdoor living area to be. Is it entertaining? A quiet spot with two chairs by a water garden? Just a place to eat dinner with the family? Cooking outside? Gathering with friends around a firepit? Start thinking about 'what' you want to use your space for, and the rest of the elements, fire place, outdoor kitchen, patio here, landscaping there, will begin to fall into place. Some examples of outdoor rooms: Pools, Meditation, Play, Kitchens, Dining Areas, Water Gardens Water shouldn’t be banned entirely from contemplative outdoor rooms. If there’s any place in our yards for accessories such as garden fountains and waterfalls, surely it’s here! There’s nothing like the soothing sound of bubbling water to put us into a reflective mood.
