4. Sun & Games

Outdoor spaces are great for entertaining — and for entertainment. Install a projector and screen for shows, movies, and gaming, add a permanent Hook & Ring Toss game (or fold-up Cornhole set or Chippo™ boards), and get a waterproof sound system or portable Sonos Move™ that you can — well — move. A waterproof outdoor sound system comes in all sizes and specifications, but choose speakers with the best sound quality for their footprint. Since you'll mount your speakers around your outdoor space, choose a brand that can handle temperature and moisture changes. Another fun idea is to get a wood, charcoal, or gas pizza oven — the Ooni Karu 16™ makes a great pie and is also pretty damn nice to look at. For the ultimate in open-air fun, add a hot tub to your outdoor space. Aside from it improving circulation and relieving stress, a hot tub offers an instant status boost, and increases the value of your real estate.
