Designing Tips for Outdoor Living Areas

Whether you have a deck or a patio, you can always customize it to express your own style or to enhance your home’s architectural theme. Here are some design tips to accentuate your alfresco living space.

  1. Even if you have a small yard, you can always maximize the space and establish a smooth traffic pattern. You can use plants, tables, or shelves to mark the borders of your deck or patio.
  2. Create a focal point for your outdoor area. Choose an area to highlight on your deck/patio, and install some nice outdoor pieces there. You can hang a painting, install a sculpture, or position a lovely sofa in your chosen spot.
  3. Boost the area’s visual appeal through well-placed sculptures, water features, classic furniture, or even colorful pillows.
  4. Outdoor furniture can be dual-purpose. For example, a table can have a specially designed container underneath to hold plants and other accessories. This is a good way to maximize space while adding unique touches to the area.
  5. For a natural look, opt for earthy colors for your outdoor furniture and décor. Or go with bright neons to exude fun and energy. Use plants in abundance and change them frequently to suit the changing color palettes of the season.
  6. Use practical and weather-proof furniture that won’t easily deteriorate under open air conditions.
  7. Create meandering pathways and secret alcoves nearby for guests to explore.
  8. Plan out and put in multiple group seating options for you, your family, and your guests.
  9. If you want to have a more private outdoor space, use tall plants or screens to protect you from prying eyes.
