Backyard Oversized Chess Fun And Entertainment – Let The Games Begin

Backyard-Oversized-Fun-And-Entertainment---Let-The-Games-Begin1

Backyard Oversized Chess Board Fun And Entertainment – Let The Games Begin.  We have all played classic games such as Jenga, Connect Four, chess, and checkers. But did you know there are also oversized versions of these games available that you can play outside?

And not just the classic games that we all know about. There are lots of other outdoor games that are so much more entertaining than watching TV or playing video games.

What’s great about these outdoor games is that they are not just fun to play, they are also very social and sometimes even educational. Some of these games also require real skills to be able to play them well.

It doesn’t matter how old you are. If you have space, fill it with an outdoor game or two.  They’ll come in handy at birthday parties, outdoor barbecues with friends, and every day because they encourage people to mix and mingle. Perhaps you’ll soak up some sunshine and also get some exercise, too, depending on which games you choose for outdoor play.

Outdoors or indoors, these boards are scalable & customizable.

Backyard Oversized Chess Board

What’s cool about playing a game of giant outdoor chess is that you can actually play in teams and you can also get spectators involved. Because the board is so big, you’ll have a much better overview of the game, and others can join in and help with the strategy.

So, instead of playing one-against-one on a normal-sized board, with this giant chess set, the game becomes a lot more social.

Get some friends or family together and play a game in the backyard.  Chess is a fun game that also challenges the brain. It’s great for parties or for helping children develop problem-solving skills in a fun way.

Backyard-Oversized-Fun-And-Entertainment---Let-The-Games-Begin3We can build these life-size chess boards in all sizes and colors. We can also build them outdoors as well as indoors if you have the space. Some boards can even have white or black squares made of grass sections to integrate into the landscape.

Giant outdoor chess is exactly the same game as regular chess – even played the same. The difference lies solely in the size of the pieces. Instead of a small board stuffed away in your board game collection, this huge set is designed for the outdoors.

Oversized Fun With Chess

You play giant chess just like regular chess, with the exception that it can be safely played outdoors on your lawn. All of the pieces are made from weatherproof plastic. In fact, the game may be stored outside without any need for additional maintenance. It’s waterproof, fade resistant, and the pieces hold their shape.

Like a normal chess set, this giant game comes with 16 black and 16 white pieces. Despite their size, they’re actually very lightweight – so much so that a child can move them. They’ll stand up to the normal breeze, but if you’re expecting wind, weigh them down. Up to 7 pounds of sand or water may be added to the bases.

Backyard-Oversized-Fun-And-Entertainment---Let-The-Games-Begin2Giant Chess and Checker Size Guide

Size is important when buying anything which will need to be set out and played in your house, garden, club, or school.

Considering how much space you have to put it is also important when considering buying a set.

  • How much space do you have?
  • Do you have space to store it safely?

No matter what game you choose, make sure to have fun and enjoy spending time with your friends and family!
The important thing is that you are spending quality time together. So yes, while competition can be fun sometimes, at the end of the day it’s all about having fun and making memories in the company of those you care about.

Setting Up Your Garden Game Area

Setting up the perfect garden game area not only provides hours of outdoor entertainment but also creates a welcoming and inviting environment for your visitors. When deciding how to set up your game area, start by considering the size. Ensure you have enough space for the games you would like to include, as well as plenty of room for players to move around freely. Next, pick games that are suitable for all ages and abilities.  This could involve purchasing family-friendly garden games like croquet or boules.

Other tips include providing plenty of shade with umbrellas or parasols so the garden atmosphere remains comfortable even when it’s sunny or hot outside, plus don’t forget to bring out any garden furniture that is necessary. Finally, make sure there’s plenty of lighting in the garden so you can easily play after dark without having to worry about visibility or safety – solar garden lights are great for this.

Backyard-Oversized-Fun-And-Entertainment---Let-The-Games-BeginChoosing The Right Equipment

If you’re looking to host a garden game night with friends, it’s important to select the right equipment. Quality garden game equipment is an investment – it’s designed to be durable and long-lasting, so choosing something that won’t break or need replacing in a few months can help maximize fun without wasting your money.  Consider any other needs you may have such as portability or weatherproofing. Outdoor garden games can be an entertaining way to bring people together and have fun. When selecting garden game equipment, it is important to take into account size, strength, and weather resistance so that the items you purchase will last for many enjoyable games. Durability should be paramount in your decision-making process, as garden game sets usually come with more than one piece, and equipment failure can mean spoiling your carefully planned gathering.

Let’s not forget about storage!  This should also be given consideration when selecting garden games. No matter what type of garden game you choose to play, one thing’s certain: you’ll have hours of fun together!

Garden games can be a great way to bring adults and children together and create lasting memories. Whether it’s a garden party with friends or just an afternoon spent outdoors, playing a game or doing an activity will make it more fun!

Gunite-Pool-Renovation-And-CopingMarble Pavers Pool Copings In Brookville NY

This is a gunite renovation completed on Long Island in Brookville NY. Gappsi installed new glass tiles in the waterline to freshen up the look of the pool.

Waterfalls, water walls, fountains, jets, bubblers, and spillovers give your pool a focal point, and they create an inspirational setting. A great pool design is often realized by the water within; its appearance, reflections, and how it refracts light and color. By adding a vertical element of moving water, the design can spring to life and almost become a work of art. There are many types of water features to choose from.  Simply put, today’s pool builders create customized features that move water in astonishing ways.

For our customer in Nassau County, we built a wall for the water feature to include sheer descends and on each end, we added spillover bowls.  Along the side of the pool we installed 6 Laminars; 3 on each side.

Sheer-descent waterfalls

Sheer-descent waterfalls, also called sheetfalls, are more suited for modern and geometric pools. The water flows through a thin spillway creating a sleek elegant look as it descends into the water. Sheetfalls are often installed along a raised wall on one side of the pool. The wall can be finished in glass tile for a stunning effect or stacked stone for a more natural look.

Laminar Fountains

Laminar fountains are a type of deck jet that produces a bubble-free arc of water.  This water feature is more common on modern pools and often lit by colorful LED lights.   This water feature look is both stunning and exciting. Designers should pay attention to windy areas because too much wind may ruin the effect on the laminar fountains. Laminar fountains are more expensive than standard deck jets.

Gunite-Pool-Renovation-And-Coping2Gappsi Stone Collection | Marble G043

In general construction terminology, coping refers to masonry material that is used to cap the top of a wall. Most walls have some type of coping, and the kind that adorns those on gunite pools features specific elements.

Coping is the material—usually natural stone or various forms of concrete—mounted over the top of the pool shell’s “bond beam” (the upper portion of the wall). This is where the pool structure meets the surrounding deck

For the coping in the patio, we used marble G043 selected from the Gappsi Stone Collection. The benches and steps in the pool were outlined with glass tiles that were used in the pool for the waterline. For the wall water feature, we used very unique marble slabs to elevate the look and make it a dramatic focal point of the pool and backyard. The patterns in the stones add to the natural beauty of the backyard through the natural patterns in the stones.

Natural Limestone Patio And Pool Long Island NY

Choosing The Right Stone For A Pool Deck

Natural-Limestone-Patio-And-Pool-Long-Island-NYWhen choosing the right stone such as a natural limestone patio and pool Long Island NY it’s important to embrace some practical and aesthetic considerations.  Whether it’s an elegant light-colored limestone perfect for a hot summer day, a natural fieldstone emulating the feel of a deep woods swimming hole, or reclaimed granite with its timeless weathered beauty, the following points will help in selecting the best stone for a pool deck or patio area.

The Four S’s to Consider

  • Style – The overall appearance of a pool deck and patio may vary depending on style. It could be sophisticated versus a more rustic look and feel.  The sophisticated style generally has clean lines while a rustic style offers an earthy feel and look with more natural, rougher lines.
  • Surface –  The texture of the stone has a big impact on the look as well as the feel of your patio surface.
    • A split face surface, like a reclaimed plank paver, gives a rustic look to the area.
    • A natural cleft surface comes from stones that are split by man along a natural seam in the stone.  This gives the surface an organic feel with a flatter surface compared to a rough split surface.
  • Shapes and Patterns – Stone shapes, whether irregularly shaped or straight edge squares and rectangles, may completely change the design of a pool deck as different design patterns will also,
  • Scale – It is important to think about the size of the stones. Deciding on small, medium, or large stones determine the look and feel of a pool deck area.

PRO TIP: If the deck space is large, consider using larger-sized pieces to give it a grand feeling. Smaller pieces may be used for more intricate patterns and offer a more sophisticated look.

  • Color – Natural stone comes in a variety of colors in addition to color combinations. Deciding on the stone consider if the pool is in direct sunlight for large amounts of time, then a lighter-colored stone would be good to keep the temperature down. Choose a color or color theme that relates to your home, or office building, as well as other stones in the nearby area.

The Right Stone For The Right Condition

A complement to the surrounding landscape, natural stone pool coping is as practical as it is attractive. Natural stone is durable and resists freeze-thaw cycles.

  • Heat Underfoot – Comfortable underfoot is important when choosing a stone for a pool deck and patio. Which type of stone will help to keep the surface cooler? The answer is a stone with less heat absorption. In general, lighter-colored stones have less heat absorption.
  • Freeze-Thaw – If the pool will be located in a freeze-thaw weather zone, be sure to pick a stone with lower water absorption for the pool deck. Granites, basalts, and porphyry top the charts in this category and will hold up to all weather conditions. We have also hand-picked some freeze-thaw-resistant limestones and sandstones that will work well.
  • Slip Resistance – The last thing you want is a slippery stone for a pool deck and patio. Luckily, adjustments to surface texture and joints can make a huge difference when it comes to creating a slip-resistant deck.

In addition to considering the appearance of the texture, consider the effect it has on the perceived slipperiness of a stone. Man-made surfaces provide excellent grip and some split surfaces tend to be less slippery. In general, stone surfaces with indentations and irregularities provide a better grip.

Natural-Limestone-Patio-And-Pool-Long-Island-NY3WIDE JOINTS VS MANY JOINTS

Wide joints between pavers or joints that have grass or other vegetation growing between them make the overall pool deck surface less slippery.

When there are many joints, your feet are always touching multiple joints which helps you naturally grip the surface and it is, therefore, more slip-resistant.

Pool Deck Materials We LOVE at Gappsi

Limestone – The luxurious feel and look of limestone make it a great choice for a pool deck.

Sandstone – A sedimentary rock composed of sand-size grains of mineral, rock, or organic material. Many sandstone materials are great for pool decks as their split surfaces are naturally slip-resistant. Colors range from beige to brown to gray-blue.

Granite – A coarse-grained igneous rock, granite has a high content of quartz and feldspar giving it a speckled appearance. One of the most durable quarried stones from around the world, granite is nearly always massive, hard, and tough.

Bluestone – Bluestone is actually a sandstone with a deep blue color but also appears with other hues such as shades of gray and brown. Bluestone is known for its advantageous price point. Natural cleft bluestone is quite slip-resistant.

Travertine – A form of limestone deposited by mineral springs, especially hot springs. Travertine often has a fibrous or concentric appearance and exists in white, tan, cream-colored, and even rusty varieties.

Marble – Marble can have beautiful pattern movement within the stone and comes in a wide variety of colors from white to salmon to gray, blue, green, and black.
