Gone are the days of decks and patios that might be used to host a BBQ once or twice a year. Now, outdoor life becomes normal, and homeowners are seeking the outdoor living areas where they can relax, watch their favorite shows, host a movie night with friends, play games and truly live every day.
As a result, deck designs are taking on new shapes and styles, from mid-century to modern. Outdoor dens and sunken outdoor living areas – inspired by the popular indoor trend from the 1960s – are expected to see a resurgence in 2022, and they’ll be outfitted with all the comforts and conveniences of the indoors, from upholstered furnishings and fully appointed kitchens to bars, big screen TVs, surround sound and more!
