Trends in Porches: Bringing The Outdoors In With These Unique Spaces

A great location for your screened porch is right off the main living area.  This allows easy access from the kitchen and family room, and gives you the ability to open the doors for spring breezes.

For additional bright living spaces, furnish a four season porch with light, airy colors and create conversational furniture arrangements to encourage connections between your family and guests.

Part of relaxing also includes watching your favorite movie while taking in the natural breezes this screened porch has to offer.  The mix of media, and a see-through fireplace gives everyone something to watch while taking it easy.

Don’t forget an additional door to the backyard for easy access for both you and your pets.  The all weather flooring is important for all seasons in this full floor-to-ceiling screened room.

Creating outdoor dining areas is something to consider if you entertain for large groups year round. The interior-like lighting above the table creates the feeling of an intimate dinner, while being outside from sunrise to sunset.
