Outdoor living has come a long way since your granddad’s time. Much like how glamping has pushed camping to the side, plush outdoor living rooms have pushed casual picnic tables out of the way. In other words, outdoors doesn’t necessarily mean roughing it anymore. In fact, home patios are more and more becoming an additional comfortable entertaining space. Here’s a look at the patio evolution from picnic to posh.

From Small Grills and Leaky Ice Chests to Luxurious Outdoor Kitchens
We’ve come a long way from the days of getting your little hibachi grill going an hour before your guests even arrive. No more leaky ice chests and cooking 4 burgers at a time. From outdoor pizza ovens to large quick start grills, BBQs have evolved into something else. Ever growing in popularity is an entire outdoor kitchen, complete with stove top, grill, and fridge. There’s really no limit to how luxurious your outdoor kitchen can be.
From Rickety Picnic Tables to Beautiful Outdoor Dining Rooms
Outdoor dining furniture has gone from simple little rusty dining tables and wood picnic tables to a wide variety of stunning dining sets as beautiful and as comfortable as indoor living rooms. Tables come in all kinds of materials, shapes, and sizes. Modern outdoor heating lamps, outdoor lighting, and even outdoor dining chair cushions have made leaps and bounds since the backyard BBQs of your childhood.

From Cumbersome Umbrellas to All-Season Pavilions
Rinky-dink umbrellas that hardly throw any shade are a thing of the past. There are endless shade options now, from giant free standing umbrellas to elegant pavilions. The nice thing about pavilions and gazebos is that they can also help contain heating element heat during the cooler months.
From Folding Chairs to Outdoor Living Rooms
Move over folding chairs. Now-a-days patios are just as comfortable as their indoor counterparts. The outdoor living room is perhaps the greatest find in the patio evolution. From plush outdoor sectional couches and designer coffee tables to romantic fire places and top-of-the-line TVs. From cozy area rugs and colorful throw pillows to comfy ottomans and heat lamps. The outdoor living room is the hot spot to entertain your family and guests.

If your backyard is still looking more like your granddad’s rickety BBQ setup, it’s time get on board with the outdoor living room revolution. Patio World will even make custom furniture to fit your space and taste perfectly. All season. Full comfort. No amenities forgotten. Why lock your luxury indoors, when you can let it loose outdoors?
