Key elements to creating stunning patios at Cumbernauld properties

The patio is no longer just a blank canvas of concrete or patio flags. It is now seen by homeowners and garden landscaping artists alike as a platform that can provide a key element in the garden.

But in order to be a truly great space, there are some key elements that need to be added. Why not see how these additions could bring to your garden and patio?

• Heat

The garden is a place that we use for only a small proportion of every year but what happens if we told you there is a way of enjoying the garden when the sun drops and the temperature cools too?

Adding heat to a patio is not just about investing in expensive patio heaters; why not take a look at fire pits?

They can be built in as part of the patio, or you can buy a pit that can be moved from place to place on the patio, if needed (but only when not in use!). If you are concerned about having an open flame in the garden, there are some great options with chimneas too that offer a more enclosed flame.

• Light

As mesmerising as it is sitting next to an open fire pit, sometimes we need a little extra light. However, if you still think of outdoor lighting as being bright, like the sensor driven security lights, think again.

Ambient, soft lighting is all the rage and this is why investing in the latest, solar power lighting, powered by sophisticated panels, can be a great thing for patios across Cumbernauld.

Why not be right on trend, and use solar lighting to illuminate both the patio, and the walkway to it. Coloured lights are still fashionable, but opt for muted tones.

• Water

And finally, possibly the most under used resource when it comes to creating a brilliant patio is water. If you are looking to create a truly magical outdoor space, you need to create textures, layers and contrasts.

And what better way to introduce contrast that to team water with fire. Whilst you bask in the glow of the open fire, let the soothing musical movement of water relax you. Water features can be freestanding or again, with some clever design, a water feature or fountain can be include in the design of your patio.

Patios at Cumbernauld properties are meant to be versatile spaces, which of these elements will you add to yours?
