Sunken Concrete Fire Pit with Built-in Benches

Set before a cedar shingle beach house, a sunken concrete fire pit features built-in benches surrounded by white crushed gravel, flowering hydrangeas, timber steps, and coastal dune grass.

Design notes

Coastal design lets the light do the work. Look for weathered cedar shingle and white trim, bleached or grey decking, cable or rope railings, and a palette of sand, driftwood and sea-glass. Planting is grasses, hydrangeas, beach roses and anything that tolerates salt and wind; furniture is teak or wicker with white cushions. Keep surfaces matte and colours pale, and the mood stays breezy even miles from the shore.

What to look for

  • Conversation-distance seating all the way around
  • Setback from structures, fences and branches
  • A dry, lit path back to the house
