Make the most of your outdoor living space with a custom louvre to enjoy the outdoors while staying protected from the elements. From unorthodox workspaces to cosy backyard lounges, there are many creative ways to customise your outdoor space for your lifestyle needs. With customisations such as outdoor heating and lighting available for installation, you can utilise your louvre all year round, regardless of the weather. Need inspiration? Here are five ideas for outdoor living spaces with roofs to inspire your design.
1. Work from the Comfort of Home
With the popularity of remote working on the rise, why not create a functional and comfortable workspace in your sheltered outdoor living space? Set up a desk and comfortable chair, and enjoy the fresh air and natural light while you work. With Exo Louvre, you can add an in-built heater to your custom louvre roof for a comfortable working environment in all seasons.
2. Enjoy Movie Nights Under the Stars
Creating an outdoor lounge area in your sheltered outdoor living space can take your movie nights to a new level, perfect for date nights or gathering the family around for a showing of Disney’s greatest hits. Add an oversized couch or cosy chairs, throw pillows, and blankets, and get ready for an immersive movie experience under the stars. Setting up a simple white blanket or cloth backdrop can create a great outdoor cinema screen, and most home projectors won’t set you back a whole lot, making this an affordable option.
3. Create a Home Gym
If you prefer to work out alone or would rather avoid crowded gyms, setting up a home gym is an excellent idea for your outdoor living space. You can install simple equipment pieces like weights, kettlebells, or resistance bands and get your workout in without leaving your property. Setting up a home gym is an amazing one-time investment that can help you achieve a healthy lifestyle without the need to pay recurring public gym fees or deal with other potentially sweaty gym-goers.
4. Explore Your Green Thumb
A garden room is a great idea for your outdoor living space. It is a great way to expand your gardening options and a perfect method for growing fresh produce, herbs, and flowers all year round, protected from the elements. Garden rooms can offer practicality and beauty to any yard, and you can even add a small seating area for a cosy and peaceful spot to enjoy your garden and have tea.
5. Let Your Inner Artist Shine
If you like getting hands-on and exploring your creativity, why not set up an outdoor art studio in your sheltered outdoor living space? You can create masterpieces with a small table or easel, some art supplies, and a comfortable chair while enjoying the fresh air and beautiful natural surroundings. Whether you prefer painting, pottery, or crocheting, you can transform your outdoor living space into the perfect artsy environment for your skills to shine.
