What Is Outdoor Living?
Outdoor living refers to the intentional design and construction of usable outdoor spaces that function as an extension of your home. These spaces are built for everyday use, entertaining, and year-round enjoyment while enhancing property value and curb appeal.
​
A well-designed outdoor living space balances form and function. It considers how you move through the space, how it is used during different seasons, and how individual features work together as a cohesive system. At Rocky Mountain Outdoor Living we have created over 800 beautiful outdoor spaces and have proudly been Colorado’s premier outdoor living company since 2007.
Core Elements of a Custom Outdoor Living Space
Every outdoor living project is unique, but most successful designs incorporate several of the following components. Rocky Mountain Outdoor Living offers a variety of features available for your outdoor space.
​
Decks and Pergolas
Custom decks and pergolas provide structure, elevation, and defined gathering areas. From composite decks built for longevity to pergolas that add shade and architectural interest, these features often serve as the foundation of an outdoor living layout.
​
Pools and Water Features
Pools, spas, and water features create a resort-style atmosphere while improving usability during warmer months. Thoughtful placement and integration ensure these elements complement surrounding patios, decks, and entertainment areas.
​
Patios and Hardscapes
Patios, walkways, and retaining walls establish flow and usability. Hardscapes provide durable surfaces for seating, dining, and fire features while addressing grading, drainage, and site conditions common in Colorado landscapes.
​
Outdoor Kitchens and Fire Features
Outdoor kitchens, fireplaces, and fire pits transform backyards into true entertainment spaces. These features allow homeowners to cook, dine, and gather comfortably outdoors well beyond the summer season.
​
Outdoor Lighting and Ambiance
Lighting enhances safety, visibility, and atmosphere. Properly designed outdoor lighting extends the usability of your space into the evening while highlighting architectural and landscape features.
