If you are looking for a way to spice up your outdoor life, no matter if this includes bundling up for a chat with a couple of close friends, or nestling on a cushioned outdoor love seat, or maybe inviting your whole gang over for s’mores and ghost stories, the solution is always the same: Just add fire. Two of the available options may include a portable fire pit, and a built-in fireplace.

The portability of a free standing wood burning firepit gives you the option to change its position whenever needed, and experiment freely with your garden’s feng shui. Because of this feature it’ll be less of a hassle to maintain the fire pit, too. These elegant models offer sort of a campfire feel, with a 360 degree access, which makes them ideal for group gatherings. They can be fueled by gas or wood, and you can get them in industrial style metal, mesh, stone, or even polished copper, for a look that best suits your garden décor.

A built-in fireplace, on the other side, has more of a homey appeal, and will create an intimate feeling, inviting lively conversation among a smaller group of people. Its main advantage is its protection from the elements, especially from the wind, which can sometimes shift the direction of the smoke, or kick up embers, endangering the people and the whole surrounding. The fireplaces also come in various materials, brick, stone, marble, tile, and usually burn wood, or can be fueled with natural gas. Your choice of this aesthetic piece should be in coordination with the other materials in your outdoor space.
