When in the country or camping, the outdoor fire place seems to be the place that people congregate to share stories and spend time together. Roshults is a Scandanavian company specializing in modern design. They have created Baron, a fire basket designed to hold several burning logs. Fire baskets were inspired from ages long ago when they served as beacons to welcome seafarers or other travelers arriving at castles or estate homes. There is a small model available as well as torch versions at Roshults. Price: €459.
The weather has been changing making it prime time to sit under patio umbrellas on the deck of your home or next to the pool. As more and more research comes out about the potential harmful effects sun can have on skin, it makes sense to have shade available when needed. Additionally, parents may find themselves outside for extended periods of time while children swim in the pool. Now if you are in the mood to lavish yourself with a luxurious umbrella for your patio, Shadescapes offers many models featuring high end construction. Most of the models pictured here start at $2,400. In an earlier story I had featured some more affordable patio umbrellas that can be found here.
