As spring arrived across the country — and in some cases didn't quite — Infratech homeowners, architects, and designers were busy getting their outdoor spaces ready for the season ahead. From Southern California patios to a snowy Colorado spring, the videos below are a reminder that year-round outdoor living looks different everywhere. What they all have in common is that the right heating makes it possible.

High above the road at Northstar, carved into a steep Tahoe hillside, a contemporary mountain home quietly emerges from the landscape. Designed through a close collaboration between Holly Hollenbeck of HSH Interiors and Anthony Laney of Laney LA, the home was built for a family of East Bay attorneys seeking a ski retreat that would eventually become their primary residence. Function, longevity, and comfort were paramount — but never at the expense of beauty.

When award-winning architect and Infratech Visionary Dan Brunn, FAIA, purchased a Los Angeles property with a stream running through it, nature became the central design challenge — and ultimately, the inspiration. Rather than working around it, Brunn built over it. Bridge House literally bridges the stream, stretching 210 feet across the grounds in an architectural move that gives the home its name and its character. Developed in partnership with Dwell, the residence is a demonstration of forward-thinking design where nature isn't an obstacle, but the organizing principle.
