Ignite Your Outdoors: Installing Fire Features That Spark Envy
Is your backyard lacking that spark? It’s time to ignite it with a fiery touch!

Whether you’re envisioning cozy nights by a crackling fire or hosting unforgettable gatherings, a well-designed fire feature can take your outdoor living experience to new heights.
The use of fire features provides a variety of benefits beyond simply creating a pleasant ambiance. A fire feature allows you to enjoy your backyard all year round. It can make a focal point for friends and family to congregate and increase your home’s curb appeal and potential value. The mesmerizing dance of flames is also incredibly therapeutic, relaxing, and stress-relieving.
At Lemcke, we specialize in creating unique and inspiring fire feature designs that will ignite your imagination and elevate your backyard to a new level.
Beyond the Ordinary: Unique Fire Feature Ideas
- Fire pits: Fire pits offer a wide variety of shapes, sizes, and materials, making them a versatile and timelesschoice that caters to diverse preferences. Whether selecting a
portable version or a permanent installation,fire pits provide flexibility and warmth to help you create a welcoming and enjoyable atmosphere. - Fireplaces or Fire Tables: Instead of settling for a basic standalone grill, consider the option of having a fireplace with an integrated grilling area. This versatile feature combines the best of both worlds—entertaining guests and savoring delightful meals in an outdoor setting. It also adds an element of sophistication and visual appeal to your outdoor area.
- Fire Bowls: Modern and minimalist, fire bowls create a sleek and contemporary atmosphere. They are perfect for smaller spaces or those seeking a clean-lined aesthetic. Create a dramatic look with a suspended fire bowl. Hanging from a pergola or a sturdy tree branch adds a touch of whimsy and elegance to your outdoor space.
Design Tips: Keep in mind the following information
When choosing a fire feature for your outdoor space, it’s essential to consider the area’s size and shape. These aspects will play a
significant role in deciding whether a wood, gas, or propane-powered option is best for you. Safety should always come first when installing a fire feature, so make sure you have proper ventilation and keep flammable materials away. It’s also important to think about the direction of prevailing winds and smoke. Choose the right material to achieve the desired aesthetic and ensure its long-term durability. Fortunately, there are numerous options available, such as stone, brick, metal, and concrete, allowing for flexibility and creativity in your design.
