The stone fire pit designs featured here are veritable works of art. Rang-
ing from traditional to contemporary in
style, each design is unique and distinctive, and bears the stamp of its creator!
Striking Design above by California SmartScape
For example, the built-in design at right incorporates a seating area that
is perched high on a mountainside
overlooking a pristine waterway . . .
. . . . . . . as does the striking hillside design pictured below by California SmartScape, based in San Diego, California.
Though a number of manufacturers now produce "portable" designs in both natural and
manufactured stone (right) -- some of which can be completed on site by do-it-yourselfers -- the stone fire pit designs that follow
are custom tailored for their individual sites. In ad-
dition, they reflect the creativity of the designers and stone artisans that crafted them . . . . . . . as well as the tastes and preferences of the home-
owners that commissioned them.
The next three examples are crafted with natural stone. Pictured below, left, is a design by P.O.P.S. Landscaping of Marietta, Georgia.
The contemporary design pictured at right uses stones of varying heights and thicknesses that have been
posi-
tioned vertically to create this unique composition.
Conversely, the unusual hand-sculpt-
ed fire pit with matching "chairs" in
the image that follows looks like
some-
thing out of the Flintstones! Sculpted by Roger Hopkins of Rocksculptors.com
in Southern California, it is
just one ex-
ample of a large and impressive body of work that includes fountains, sinks, and hot tubs, in addition to
fire pits!
Unlike the above-ground designs pic- tured up to this point, the examples
at right and below, (with close-up beneath it), are flush with the ground.
Though each design incorporates a stone seating
area, the design that follows uses a variety of contrasting stone sizes, types and colors for add-
ed interest --
crushed stone for the substrate or base,
flagstone for walk-
ing, and boulders for seating.
Pictured at right is a gas-fueled fire pit that can be safely operated on a wood deck.
And finally, the poolside fire pit pictured below is a great example of the numerous creative options available in outdoor fire spaces. Designed to look like an active volcano, it adds a dramatic night time focal point to an equally dramatic backdrop!
