How To Add Warmth To Second-Floor Outdoor Spaces

Introduction

It’s the time of year when we’re all looking forward to spending more time outside, but if you live in a cooler climate, you may need some help heating up your outdoor spaces. Whether it’s an underutilized deck, patio or garden space, these projects will help make any outdoor area feel like home away from home:

Outdoor Rooms: Add Warmth

Adding warmth to your outdoor space is a great way to make it feel more like home. There are many ways that you can accomplish this, but here are some tips for adding warmth:

• Use natural materials. Stone and wood are some of the most common materials used in outdoor spaces because they’re durable, versatile and easy on the eyes. If you want something less traditional than stone or wood, consider using natural fabrics such as linen and cotton that allow you to bring in some color without sacrificing durability or strength.
• Go solar powered! Solar panels are an excellent way of adding energy-efficient power sources without having any ugly wires running across your yard (you know what I’m talking about). You might also want to invest in LED lights so that there aren’t any hot bulbs hanging around outside–you don’t want them melting off into puddles when it rains!
• Fire pit? Check! You’ll need one if only because nothing says “home” quite like roasting marshmallows over an open flame while gazing up at stars twinkling above while relaxing with friends/family members who share similar interests as yours.”

Replace the existing roofing material with a low-maintenance material such as wood shingles or metal roofing.

Replacing the existing roofing material with a low-maintenance material such as wood shingles or metal roofing is an excellent way to add warmth and elegance to your second-floor outdoor space.

Metal roofs are especially good at keeping water out of your home, which will help prevent mold from forming on the interior walls of your house. Wood shingles are also durable and long lasting, but they do require more maintenance than other types of materials because they need to be periodically repainted or stained in order for them not to rot away over time.

Install an overhead solar light fixture to heat the area at night.

Solar light fixtures are a great way to add warmth to second-floor outdoor spaces. They come in many styles, colors and sizes, so you can find one that matches your home’s design. Solar lights can be installed on roofs or walls–or even on trees! Some models are wired for automatic operation while others must be left on all night.

Cover the ground with a thermally insulated concrete topping or lay down a waterproof membrane and then add a layer of decorative pea stone or gravel.

Cover the ground with a thermally insulated concrete topping or lay down a waterproof membrane and then add a layer of decorative pea stone or gravel. A waterproof membrane such as Bituminous Membrane, which is installed over the soil before it is covered with pea stone or gravel, will help keep moisture away from the house and prevent mold growth in colder months. The added benefit of using this material is that it will also insulate against heat loss during winter months (and vice versa).
