Outdoor Living Space Ideas: More Room for Summer
The right outdoor living space makes summer feel twice as long.
In Canada, summer never feels long enough, so it’s important to make the most of it while it lasts. But what about when the warm months are gone and you’re left watching your outdoor space sit unused?
With an enclosed sunroom, you can add a lot more life to your patio for well into autumn and throughout spring, and even into winter. Yes, you use a three-season room in the winter; in some cases, it’s actually more useful than four season rooms.
While summer is here, we have a few fun ideas for how you can make the most out of summer in your outdoor living space:
Host a cookout
One of the reasons a retractable room is great is because you can open up the panels of the room so that it’s easier to BBQ inside them. With a four-season room, this can be difficult to do. Plus, you can host the BBQ in rain or shine!
A great way to enjoy your enclosed sunroom in summer is hosting dinner parties. By being outside while dining, the whole dining experience is enhanced with the senses being brought to life by the great outdoors.

Find solace in shielded sunshine
With your glass enclosure and patio cover, you are shielding yourself from the sun’s harmful UV rays, while still enjoying the mental health benefits the sun can offer.
A great way to use your outdoor living space in the summer is to bring in your exercise bike or yoga mat to break a sweat, or meditate for a few minutes. If the space starts to get too warm, just open up the panels for a nice breeze.
A play space for the kids (or your pets)
Another great outdoor living space idea for the summer is to make your sunroom into a play space for your kids or pets.
During those warm summer days, the enclosed retractable sunroom makes for an ideal space for them to enjoy their summer vacation. Have a games night, a play date, host a birthday party—the ideas are endless with Lumon’s retractable glass solutions.
You can also let your plant friends enjoy the great outdoors in the sunroom.
