The Arizona weather is nice enough to enjoy the outdoors almost year round.  So why not extend your home by creating an extension of your home into outdoor living spaces?  Why stay indoors when so much of the time you can be outdoors enjoying additional open spaces that surround your home?  Generally, you will spend more of your outdoor time in the backyard of your home so let’s focus on things that can be done to create a Dream Retreat backyard.

A pool can be one entertainment option in spring/summer months.  Landscape pavers are a popular option being used for Arizona pool decks.  There are endless Arizona backyard design options that would be great compliment to a backyard pool.  A grill area, pergola, recreational activities, and a water feature are just a few of the options that could enhance your Arizona backyard design.

For Arizona fall/winter enjoyment adding a patio fireplace or backyard firepit would enhance your outdoor living enjoyment, not to mention increase your home value. If you prefer some water recreation in the cooler months an above ground spa is a great idea.  Whatever backyard design options you choose, they are all great areas of your extended living space to enjoy a warm cup of coffee, hot cocoa or your favorite beverage.Arizona Backyard Design Outdoor Fireplace
