Due to a large shift in the millennial generation now becoming homeowners, outdoor living is in high demand. The following design trends are going to be huge this year and are easy to incorporate into your new Main Street home. Classic Outdoor Spaces With all of the new technology and trends, one thing doesn’t change– the demand for a large, comfortable patio or deck.  A place for gathering and relaxing, these areas are practically necessary in any new home. Outdoor Cooking The ability to dine and cook outdoors is obviously huge– whether it is developing a small garden or having a complete outdoor kitchen. Smokers, grills and even pizza ovens are becoming popular in new homes. Natural Retreats Getting away from the hustle and bustle of everyday is key for some, and having tranquil places outdoors to do that can be extremely relaxing. Rock gardens, water features and even artistic sculptures are all going to be much more commonplace this year.  Fire Features Similar to water features, the natural element of an outdoor fire is a great source of satisfaction among homeowners.  A custom wood burning fire pit or fireplace is becoming a popular request in our Main Street homes.  In addition to contributing to the ambiance of the outdoor space, the warmth also allows you to enjoy the seasons longer.
