3 Best Outdoor Stone Veneer Ideas for your Home, Post Covid-19

To state that 2020 has been full of surprises (not in a good way), would be the understatement of the decade. The first year of this decade has ushered in a totally unreal world. We are all stuck indoors without being able to see our friends and carry out socializing like we used to do. The silver lining of this grim scenario is that – we've been able to spend more time with our dear ones at home.

And, even after life gets back to normal, things wouldn't be the same, as they were before the Corona outbreak. You can expect social gatherings to reduce significantly. Instead of large crowds, people would prefer to spend their time with a close group of friends and family, preferably at home.

The need for an outdoor living area, where families and friends can gather, will be the most in-demand design trend of this year. Here, in this guide, Decor Slim Stone, No.1 flexible stone veneer manufacturer and supplier in India, we share with you 5 outdoor living area designs to inspire your home upgrade, once the lockdown is over.


1. An Outdoor Kitchen cum Dining Unit

With restaurants shut down, people would prefer an outdoor living area, where they can host their friends and families. An outdoor kitchen lined with stone veneers is the perfect place to fire up a barbecue and grill your meat. You can even include a fire pit area, where you can smoke your dishes directly, on top of the grill.

If including a fire pit, try to add some seating around the outer edges of the pit. This is a great place to hang out, while the hosts cook your tasty treats.


2. A Relaxing Hot Tub

This is a bit expensive upgrade, but it's so worth it. Adding a hot tub to your backyard gives you the perfect place to unwind, relax, and just enjoy life. Surround your hot tub with rugged stone veneers to give it a rustic feel. Additionally, you can also add pillars lined with stone veneers to support the canopy on top of the tub. This is a perfect space to unwind and melt away your stresses.


3. An Eye-Catching Centerpiece for the Backyard

Do you love spending time outdoors with your loved ones? Then, how about making it more memorable with a faux fire pit? Add a fire pit in your backyard along with ledges on either side. The shelves can serve as places for your family to gather while you share the day's happenings with each other. Line the fire pit with flexible thin stone veneers to give it a natural stone-like effect.

These three projects showcase how adding natural stone veneers can enhance your outdoor area. If you’re running short on outdoor space, worry not. Just adding a stone veneer patio gives you some extra space to gather and celebrate with your friends and family.
