The outdoors is a great place to gather friends and family, but sometimes the weather fails to cooperate properly. While the summer is a good time to be outdoors, having a fire handy makes the situation even more enjoyable. A fire becomes an even more useful piece of the outdoor gathering puzzle as the weather gets colder, and adding warmth becomes an even more enjoyable part of being outside.
Rather like planning to install a pool, there is a detailed process that goes into planning out and installing a fireplace, and that process starts with figuring out where you and your guests will want to be. If there is a particular place where you have an especially awesome view, this is the perfect place to make your fireplace a nexus. When the warmth and light is just right, you can stay outside until the snow starts to fall with a level of comfort that is second only to being inside.
Further, you also want the fire to face the right way. Keep the fire pointing toward the view and the effect of its light is stunning.
