Spending time outdoors has become a natural part of the Swedish lifestyle. From the first rays of spring sunshine to the crisp evenings of winter, more and more people want to be able to enjoy their garden regardless of the season. This development has led to more people investing in patios, heat sources and products that create a pleasant atmosphere. Fire pits have quickly become a favorite – they combine function with design and create a natural gathering point.
The fire pit – a modern fireplace for the garden
Espegard's new fire barrels are designed to suit the Scandinavian aesthetic while offering a clean and efficient combustion. Thanks to a smart design, the fire provides an even flow of heat and light, while minimizing smoke generation. This makes the fire barrel a perfect option for those who want a cozy fire without disturbing the neighbors.
This is how you create hygge with a fire barrel
Creating a pleasant outdoor environment is all about the details. A fire pit quickly becomes a central part of the garden and can be used in several ways:
- Community and togetherness: Invite family and friends for an evening around the fire. Combine with warm blankets and hot chocolate for maximum coziness.
- Cooking over an open fire: Espegard's fire barrels can be used for grilling or cooking simple dishes outdoors. Brasa is especially suitable because it has the best accessories, including a grill tower.
- A quiet moment in nature: Let go of screens and distractions – just sitting and looking into the fire is relaxation at the highest level.
