Fire Pit Designs

Think there's nothing new going on under the proverbial sun? That's just a little bit of solar propaganda. Our closest star is merely jealous of all the new ways in which outdoor fire pit designs can safely enclose and beautifully accentuate that age-old theft of Prometheus from the mythical gods: fire. Today's fire pit design ideas emphasize not only contemporary aesthetic tastes, but also modern conveniences that allow us mortal fire thieves to enjoy our stolen flames in backyards and camping grounds, patios and pool sides, decks and tailgaiting spots.

Modern Styles

If the term "fire pit" conjures images in your mind of pockmarked and rusted metal cylinders, then Firepits.com is going to be a style revelation. Our site is a virtual gallery of contemporary outside fire pit designs that would seamlessly blend in with designer homes and meticulously sculpted landscapes. The combination of a stainless steel frame and a hand-crafted mosaic tile or stone tabletop gives modern fire pits a level of decorative sophistication that would make a park ranger think Fire Safety was a new line from Coco Chanel. As deck or patio fire pits, modern fire pit tables would not merely complement but actually heighten your home's outdoor decor, especially when joined by wood or wrought iron fire pit accessories. If traditional is more your style, Patina fire pits have an eponymous rustic beauty, with a natural rust patina finish and shaped or lettered cut-outs for a fiery glimpse within.

Portable Flames

Despite all the advancements made since the age when humans were nomads rubbing sticks together, there are still times when taking our fire equipment from one place to another is necessary and/or convenient. The selection at Firepits.com includes portable fire pits that are lightweight and easily transportable, and in some cases can even be used either indoors or out. If the Far Reaches of Backyard is the limit of your planned excursions, a wheeled fire pit would suffice, but we also carry portable outside fire pit designs with folding frames for fire-on-the-go camping vacations or tailgaiting at the next big game.

Patio and Pool Safety

Backyard fire pit designs for patios and pools must cater to both decorative tastes and safety requirements. New modern fire pit designs for patios and pools include fire pit tables, chimineas, and outdoor gel-fueled fireplaces. Being able to light your outdoor coffee table on fire would not only make a great conversation starter, but it's also a wonderfully comfy way to curl up and enjoy indoor comforts under an open sky.
