What Are the Best Outdoor Living Spaces?

Upgrading the outdoor living space on your property is a great way to bring the beauty and comfort from inside your home to the outdoors. But, there are countless outdoor living options out there, so determining which one will best complement your home and needs can be difficult. Before deciding on an outdoor living space, let’s take a look at some of the different options to help you determine which one will be right for you.

Pergolas

Pergolas are archways that provide shade for outdoor spaces. They are commonly installed in gardens or above decks. They are designed to provide shade for these areas to make them comfortable to sit in and relax when the sun is at its brightest. Pergolas consist of columns that support a roof with beams and rafters. The roof can typically be opened or closed to let in the desired amount of sunlight, or completely shut it out.

Screened-In Porches

With a screened-in porch, you can essentially add an additional room to your home, increasing its square footage, comfortability, overall appeal, and possibly even its value. Screened-in porches offer a unique way for you to utilize your porch, outdoor deck, or pool area. This type of outdoor living structure allows you to enclose an outdoor space and enjoy it without the annoyance of pesky insects or relentless sunshine.

American Home Design has been so wonderful! Even after having our system for 6 months now, they still follow up with us to make sure we are still happy with our system to make sure everything is still working properly. I’ve never had anyone from any company stay in contact like that to make sure we are satisfied.

American Home Design was fantastic! They were personable and professional at the same time, cleaned up any mess left over from the work done, and was super accommodating. We will definitely be calling them for any future bathroom remodel needs!
