(
PRWEB) June 7, 2007 -- With hot Summer days, come cool Summer nights, and it's no wonder that across the country outdoor fire pits have become a staple of outdoor living spaces. Homeowners, designers and builders are turning to The Concrete Network, the largest and most comprehensive source for concrete information,
online outdoor fire pits photo gallery for a collection of photos offering different design ideas and options for incorporating outdoor fire pits for everyday entertaining.
The appeal of outdoor fire pits comes from the fact that backyard entertaining does not have to stop once the sun sets. These outdoor fixtures are great for providing light and warmth for friends and family as the evening air begins to cool.
They can be easily incorporated into landscape design plans around pools and patios. From rustic, natural pieces incorporating faux rocks to sleek, sophisticated fixtures, these outdoor fireplaces can transform any landscape into an entertainer's paradise. Made from concrete, they are the perfect option for withstanding outdoor weather, and can be wood or gas burning.
The concrete photo gallery is updated every Friday offering new photos of custom and unique designs and applications. Photos for the photo gallery have been collected from contractors around the country and are for design idea purposes only.
Established in 1999,
The Concrete Network's purpose is to educate consumers, builders, and contractors on popular decorative techniques and applications. These include stamped concrete, stained concrete floors, concrete countertops, polished concrete, and much more. In May 2007 The Concrete Network Web site had over 1.1 million visitors researching decorative concrete.
The site excels at connecting buyers with local contractors in their area through its
Find-A-Contractor service. The service provides visitors with a list of decorative concrete contractors throughout the U.S. and Canada, and is fully searchable by 23 types of decorative concrete work and 200 regional areas throughout North America.
