FIREPLACES • FIRE PITS • GATHERING SPACES
Outdoor Fireplaces & Fire Pits in Howard County
Fire features create a natural destination within a patio, pool area or pavilion. Rhine designs and builds custom fireplaces and fire pits as part of the surrounding masonry and outdoor-living environment.
Choose the Right Kind of Gathering Space
A full fireplace creates a strong architectural focal point, while a fire pit can provide a lower-profile, more open gathering area. Placement, seating, circulation, nearby structures and the surrounding patio all influence which approach works best.
Rhine’s existing fire-feature information includes wood-burning, natural- or propane-gas, charcoal and hybrid configurations. It also notes drainage, appropriate placement and fire-resistant construction considerations as part of its approach.
Integrate Fire With the Whole Backyard
Fireplaces and fire pits work especially well when coordinated with patios, seating walls, outdoor kitchens, pavilions, pools and planting. Materials can be selected to complement the home and other masonry on the property.
Build It as Part of the Whole Property
