conjunction with the home design, " said Jarrett.
" Th ese areas should fl ow as seamlessly as possible
from inside, feeling like an inviting extension of
the interiors. "
Still, 24.6% of our respondents' clients feel the
two looks should be distinct from one another.
" Other " answers were for there to be a blend to
complement the client's lifestyle, coordination
with a smooth transition and a distinction that
works with the home's style.
" I believe there's no one-size-fi ts-all approach
when it comes to the style of outdoor living
spaces, " said Kelly. " While some clients prefer a
seamless transition from interior to exterior and
maintaining a cohesive design aesthetic, others
seek to create a distinct outdoor oasis that off ers
a refreshing departure from indoor spaces. Ultimately,
it's about fulfi lling the homeowner's vision
and creating a space that refl ects their lifestyle and
personality. "
