Outdoor Kitchens

Whether you’re a foodie who enjoys hosting dinner parties or simply want to make family meals outdoors, an outdoor kitchen is the perfect addition to any backyard. A professionally designed and built outdoor cookspace is also a smart investment for your home, increasing its value should you decide to sell in the future.

Popular designer outdoor kitchen ideas have moved beyond a basic grill setup and into bar areas that feature sinks, refrigerators and cabinets. This allows you to prepare a full meal alfresco, while keeping everything within easy reach.

To add a tropical touch to your patio, incorporate some low-maintenance plantings, like society garlic (Tulbaghia violacea) and kangaroo paw (Anigozanthos spp). You can even take family pizza night outdoors with a wood-fired oven, an eye-catching design element that makes a statement. Pair this with rattan light fixtures and boho-inspired furniture to pull the look together.

Outdoor Fireplaces

When it comes to relaxing and gathering with friends and family a backyard fire pit is one of the most sought after landscape features. AJ Criss landscaping services offers outdoor fire pits in many different hardscaping materials to meet the needs of Escondido, Rancho Bernardo, Carlsbad and Oceanside homeowners.

A backyard fireplace is a classy upgrade on the more basic fire pit and can be built to express your personality and complement the style of your home. They are also more efficient at heating a space than a wood burning fire, making them an energy-efficient choice that can be adapted to burn propane or natural gas.

A good backyard garden design can make your yard feel like a living room and help you enjoy it year-round. Some low-maintenance plants that grow well in Oceanside include society garlic (Tulbaghia violacea), Cleveland sage (Salvia clevelandii), and kangaroo paws (Anigozanthos spp). Other hardscape options like retaining walls and custom patio designs can add to the warmth and appeal of your backyard.

Fire Pits

There is something about gathering around a blazing fire with friends that is just so enjoyable. Many San Diego homeowners want to add a backyard fire pit to their property for this reason.

If you are going to install a fire pit, make sure you take proper safety precautions. This includes keeping any seating a safe distance from the fire. This will help prevent injuries from direct flames or sparks escaping the bowl. It is also a good idea to keep a few fire extinguishing materials on hand in case of any emergencies.

Another consideration is to be mindful of any local burn ordinances or air quality issues. This is especially important for wood-fueled pits. It is a good idea to look into manufactured fire logs or other fuel options that are better for the environment and local air quality. You should also make sure your fire pit is in a place that is protected from windy conditions.

Patios

Patios are an important element of a backyard landscape and serve as an entertaining and lounging space. They can be constructed from a variety of materials including brick, stone, and concrete.

Concrete patios offer homeowners a versatile surface that can be stained or colored to match a home’s color scheme. They can also be etched or stamped to create patterns that mimic popular paving materials like flagstone and slate.

With a coastal climate, Oceanside is ideal for the Mediterranean landscaping style, which incorporates elements like stucco walls, terra-cotta tiles, and earthy colors to create a warm and inviting outdoor space. The city also has a large art scene, with more than three dozen murals throughout the town. For outdoor enthusiasts, there is plenty of hiking and biking, as well as camping and surfing opportunities.
