Fire pits create the perfect gathering spot for family and friends, where conversation flows freely and relaxation is always on the menu. The trick to designing a fire pit is to make it blend seamlessly into its surroundings while also reflecting your personal flair. This backyard escape pairs a teak swing and bench with a metal fire pit that’s perfect for a blazing fire or roasting marshmallows. Deep navy cushions bring comfort to the space, and an Old World-inspired fountain plays a trickling tune that enhances the ambiance.

Whether you’re ready to craft your own fire pit-focused outdoor retreat or just starting to noodle ideas, get ready to be inspired. Our showcase of 60 fire pits is guaranteed to spark your creativity.
