When it comes to designing a truly extraordinary home, tranquil outdoor spaces are quickly becoming as important as a property’s interior. Taking air on a poolside patio, reclining on a shaded terrace, walking a curated garden: these are the luxuries to be enjoyed in a well-curated yard. Whether you’re looking for a moment away from a busy schedule or a place to stretch and wander, a stylish outdoor oasis means you’ll always be mere steps from nature.
When it comes to inspiration for the great outdoors, the options for creativity are myriad. Today’s yards play host to any number of design-forward features: pergolas and fountains, outdoor kitchens and fireplaces, bars and benches, and every modern comfort transported outside. Even small nature spaces have been proven to improve mood and reduce stress, meaning that whether you’re living in a streamlined penthouse or at home on a vast acreage, a little bit of greenery goes a long way. From rolling lawns and lush gardens to custom pools and rustic fire pits, find your next outdoor idea from this open-air mood board, and let the gentle breezes of home whisk you away.
