Work, play, cooking, relaxation, and entertaining are all moving outdoors as homeowners expand the footprint of their homes. Thanks to innovation, outdoor living designers can use 3D representation to show homeowners how they can naturally add more space to their homes while enjoying the innate healing powers of nature. But if you are planning to invest in an outdoor living space in Coopersburg, Pennsylvania you will want to make sure you are selecting outdoor trends that are here to stay.
If you’ve been considering a new outdoor living space in the Lehigh Valley here are some trends you need to consider:
Direct sun exposure can overheat a laptop, mouse, keyboard—and of course, a working professional like yourself. So if there’s no shade in your backyard you might avoid working outside even on the nicest days. This could cause you to miss out on your kid’s first cannonball, the dog’s first jump in the pool, or other summer vacation memories.
A patio umbrella or a pop-up canopy can provide temporary respite from the rays, but it would need to be replaced frequently and runs the risk of being damaged by light winds. This is why it is important to consider an attached roof system when designing your new patio, deck, outdoor kitchen, or pool in Center Valley, Pennsylvania. An attached roof system will optimize the life of your investment while extending the use of your outdoor living space by providing shelter from the rain, wind, and sun so you can spend more time outdoors.

A sun ledge makes for a great addition to your inground pool for parents who want to keep an eye on kids in the pool, and dogs love it too!! To get the best use out of a sun shelf in your new pool it should be between .75 and 1.5 feet deep. This makes the perfect depth for soaking in the sun, relaxing on some in pool lounge chairs, and more. But if you are planning to build a new pool in the Lehigh Valley, don’t neglect to plan the area around your new pool.

Nothing ruins time outdoors more than pesky bugs around the food, sunburn, or a random summer chill.
