Outdoor Products10 Ways to Create a Luxury Backyard
Along with premium appliances to enhance your luxury backyard, discover new ways to create a haven of relaxation and opulence for an outdoor kitchen and all your backyard ideas.
1. Set the Mood
After a long day of work, what could be nicer than coming home and stepping into a relaxing backyard oasis? Add calming lighting throughout the trees that sparse your backyard. Or, if you don’t have trees, add a few tiki torches and accent lights to create a beautiful ambiance. Spend your evenings in private peace by setting the mood of your backyard with lights.
2. Choose the Right Seating
If your backyard has a beautiful pool, make sure to choose seating that will draw guests to the poolside. Dangle your feet off a lounge chair and read the evening away under those accent lights. Or choose a swinging recliner chair to hang underneath a porch or tree to relax and enjoy the evening. For optimal luxury, you’ll want comfortable and stylish seating to wow your friends.
3. Create a Theme
Get inspired by your favorite international resorts. Create a tropical retreat with tiki torches, swinging bench seats, and a few tropical plants. Or if a tropical theme isn’t your style, create an ultra-modern backyard. Find a few abstract sculptures and revolve your backyard furniture around moodier tones.
4. Find the Perfect Entertainment
If you plan to use your backyard as the center for Sunday football games, create a space that revolves around a flat-screen TV and a snack bar. A spacious outdoor counterspace and bar will easily bring your friends to your backyard as you enjoy the day.
5. Form a Relaxing Appeal
If you simply want your luxury backyard to be a place of tranquility, shape your space around relaxation. Under a beautifully crafted porch, place a swinging lounge chair or a hanging hammock. Integrate outdoor speakers within the bushes for ambiance music and spend your days caught in a good book.
6. Have a Bar Cart
To easily attract guests and kids alike, create a spot for a luxury bar cart. Place all your favorite drinks and mixers out and showcase your decadent bottles. You can also use a bar cart to stock all your kid’s favorite juice packs and snacks to grab while spending the day in the pool.
7. Integrate a Water Fountain
How to make your luxury backyard that much more extravagant is by adding in a constant sound of running water. Whether that be an outdoor fountain or a small trickle from water chimes, the soothing sound of a river will facilitate affluence.
8. Clean Off in an Outdoor Shower
An outdoor shower may not be on the top of your list to create a luxurious backyard, but it definitely sets the scene. The personality of a rugged shower will create an invigorating space for any guest to want to step into. After a long, hot day resting by the pool, wash off in a backyard oasis.
9. Add in Tropical Hints
Resorts are the epitome of luxury spaces and tropical vegetation are usually at the core of those havens. Incorporate live or faux plants for an elegant and private feel. Layer your deck, pool, and indoor patio with ornamental grasses, exotic flowers, and bamboo for a rich vibe.
10. Invest in Luxury Appliances
Lastly, stock your backyard with an abundance of luxury appliances. A Lynx outdoor wine cooler and a beautiful built-in grill will create the perfect mood of enjoyment. Outdoor kitchen appliances will enhance the experience of your space with stainless steel finishes and feature-heavy items.
So, whether you’re looking to reconstruct your patio into a full luxury backyard or fill your space with premium appliances, East Coast Appliance has everything you could need.
