Ways to Connect your Living Space to your Garden

No matter what home you have, connecting the living space to the garden can provide an extra dimension to your home and enhance its natural beauty. Making the transition from living space to your garden can turn the outdoors into a living area, whilst providing you with more space on the inside. Whilst it might be easy to think of the living area and garden as two separate areas, there are many additions you can make to your home to bridge this gap. 

From installing bi-folding doors to changing the flooring, here’s how you can connect your living space and the garden area. 

Be Consistent with Flooring 

Using the same flooring for the inside and outside can blur the distinction between the two areas, giving you a full view and a much larger visual space. Also, having the same flooring means the design of your house will look more consistent. Just be conscious that certain flooring does not complement all types of weather very well, so it’s important to get flooring that is both frost-proof and resistant to slips. 

Invest in Bi-Folding Doors

Having bi-folding doors are a great way to access your garden area and provide a better view when inside. These types of doors also allow for the maximum amount of light to enter the property too, meaning that you’ll have to rely less on artificial lighting. These types of doors are especially effective in summer, as they allow the garden to become part of your living space because of its easy access. Having a modern conservatory installed is something else that you could consider, as this also provides a connection between the inside and outside area. 

Think About Lighting

Even if the sun has gone down, you should still be able to enjoy your garden area. Investing in lighting will not only allow you to stay out there for longer on the shorter nights but also means you can see its beauty throughout the night. For instance, the inclusion of fairy lights or solar-powered could expand the outdoor living space, improve the ambience and highlight the natural beauty of your garden. In addition to this, garden lighting also elements of safety to your outside area too. Visitors are able to walk safely to your door, and thieves and burglars will be deterred by the lights too.
