Outdoor Living and Porches
When friends visit, some may want to sit under cover while others prefer the open air. A covered or screened porch and a patio can give them different places to settle. We can discuss how to arrange those spaces so people can still talk with one another.
When guests help themselves to food or drinks, think about whether they can reach an outdoor kitchen or bar without crossing the main conversation area. If a firepit or fireplace is also in the plan, a privacy screen or wall can affect where the features fit. We can discuss the space between them, applicable clearances, and whether another trade may be needed.
