The concept of outdoor living started with the backyard pool and many in the industry are aware this trend has expanded exponentially over the years. The backyard is no longer a domain just for kids and the pool; therefore, designers/builders who embrace this concept are not only offering to install or renovate the pool, but in doing so, are providing homeowners additional options such as outdoor kitchens, fireplaces, dining/lounging areas, swim-up bars, and even offices complete with Wi-Fi so clients can work from home in the midst of their tranquil outdoor oasis.
