In case you love the outdoors and would like to enjoy your garden, even when the weather is not as nice as you would like it to be, you might be thinking about connecting your indoor space with your outdoors and entertaining your guests in the house and in the garden. You can not only expand your space and invite more people, but also enjoy fresh air inside, getting the best of both worlds. Find out more below.
Open Up Space
It is a good idea to get rid of unnecessary room dividers, walls, and doors. You might want to let light in from every direction. If you have a wall that cannot be removed, you might want to get some glass bricks or over-the-door windows to allow natural light to flow through your home. This will allow you to enjoy looking at the birds feeding on the table or having a bath, while drinking your morning coffee in the kitchen.
Create Walkways
You might also be thinking about making your indoor area easy to flow. Make it lead directly to the garden, and make your patio door or back door your main focal point. Every corridor or door should lead to your garden, so you can enjoy the views without having to put up with the rain or wind. Remove furniture from the way, so you get an undisrupted view over your garden, patio, or conservatory.
Declutter
To make your rooms lighter and more organized, it is important that you start your spring cleaning with getting rid of clutter. Old paperwork, toys, and shoes don’t have a place in your hallway, living room, or the conservatory. Get rid of them by getting some side cabinets that don’t take up much space, but can still hide whatever you have and don’t want to say goodbye to yet.
Trifold Doors
One of the best ways of connecting your indoor space with your outdoors is installing as much glass as possible. If you get folding doors that disappear when you want them to, you will have easy and safe access to your garden. Make sure that you are buying triple pane folding doors that are secure, so you maintain the energy efficiency of your home while making it lighter and better connected with the outdoors.
Conservatory and Plants
If you have the space in the garden to get a conservatory, you can enjoy the warmth of the home and the views of your garden. Don’t make this room crowded: a great light seating solution from Alexander & James Sofas, a coffee table, a few sideboards for drinks, and a couple of plants will be enough to keep you happy and comfortable sitting in your conservatory on long summer evenings.
Whether you are planning parties this summer or would like to enjoy your evenings without getting cold, connecting your indoor space with your garden is a great idea. Use loads of glass to let light flow naturally through your home and brighten up your mood this summer.
