Use Recycled Materials
For those looking to be environmentally responsible, consider creating your fire pit with recycled materials. This Washington fire pit was made of a recycled cast-iron rock crushing cone that weighs 2,000 pounds. It looks unique and will last for years to come. An underground natural gas line feeds the flame.
Use Fire & Water
Both fire and water have the ability to energize and soothe. Combining them in the same outdoor space will amplify this experience. In this Colorado yard, a water feature serves as both a visual and auditory backdrop for the fire pit area. In other words, the sights and sound of the water add to the unique setting.
Create a Circular Border
A circle is a common shape for a fire pit becasue it lends itself to gathering around. Encourage guests to get cosy by adding another circle as a border to the fire pit area. In this case, the border also serves as seating.
Go Natural with Rock
If you're a fan of the au natural look outdoors then turning a boulder into a fire pit is a good option. A portion of the rock is ground out for placement of a burner and then plumbing is run through a hole so that natural gas or propane can be delivered to the burner. This can be done custom with a boulder that is already on your property or with one hand selected from a supplier. There is also a company that specializes in this type of fire pit, learn more here: Boulder Fire Features.
