Are you planning for an outdoor bed, shower, bathtub, hot tub, or seating? This is where comfort is imperative. Bring all of the luxuries of home outside. Create a sleeping area in a quiet place shaded from bright daylight. For a seating respite, choose comfortable outdoor furniture. Place it where it captures your favorite time of day or where you will frequent it. Buffer a bathtub or shower from prying eyes, inclement weather and intruders by surrounding it with plants and privacy structures. If a hot tub is already installed as part of the home, create a relaxing view by planting a beautiful tree as a focus or bring in elegant, colorful pottery and surround it with colorful plants. Look for ways to integrate the hot tub into the landscape so it doesn’t stick out like a sore thumb. For the undesirable views you cannot change, hide them with fencing or large plants that billow and camouflage.

Even the simplicity of a small patio or balcony becomes a retreat by placing pottery and fragrant herbs to create your surroundings. Finish with comfortable, deep-cushioned seating and a table.
