While many people obsess about designing the interior of their homes, few fret about sprucing up their patio. Yet, time spent decorating and designing a patio pays off in spades. An outdoor space serves as a “bonus room” and offers a prime spot for entertaining and unwinding.
Here are some inspired ideas for designing a chic but comfortable patio space just in time for the lazy days of summer:
Exotic Spice
No need to journey to faraway lands for a relaxing retreat, find international flair and exotic Eastern vibes in your own backyard. Decorate a passport-free patio with a wicker oval table and flower cushion chairs for a backyard that feels ultra-luxurious.
Traditional Splendor
A cozy and friendly patio is outfitted with a sleek aluminum dining set and chairs with yellow blossoms. A table with room for an umbrella makes this rectangular table ideal for patio parties in any weather.
Rustic Charm
Nothing offers more of a homey vibe than a patio with the flair of an Italian bistro mixed with a twist of farmhouse chic. A countryside table, tree branch chairs and an aluminum cast table set the stage for a calming coffee spot or easy book nook.
Coastal Chic
For the ocean obsessed, a beach-ified patio space offers the perfect solution for squashing seashore cravings. Outfit a patio with white wicker chairs with pink cushions to experience a little splash of the beauty of a sandy sunset.
Swanky Sensation
For an inviting poolside patio, decorating with bright patterns and tons of texture creates the feeling of additional space. Colorful cushions and a hammered handcrafted table is a posh and pretty addition to any water adjacent patio set.
Al Fresco Elegance
Give a tired outdoor patio a kick with interior style furnishings. Perfect for large dinner parties and family gatherings, a patio with a wicker loveseat and sofa is ideal for BBQs and holidays.
Tranquil Oasis
Teatime just got an upgrade with a patio space that is a sanctuary from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Shabby chic meets southern sophistication with a low maintenance two-person wooden patio table.
Botanic Beauty
Create a rich patio space by adding a long banquet style table. Aztec-inspired chair cushions and silver wicker creates a unique and stylish backyard retreat.
Ships Ahoy
A nautical inspired backyard patio feels fresh with a picnic-esque green patio table. Add a pitcher filled with lemonade and a serving tray of snacks and this square shaped table will become a landing spot for guests, grub and gab.
Snooze Terrace
For the ultimate outdoor paradise, add a fire pit and a corner couch to finish off the look of this contemporary and luxurious patio space. Dark and rich, this contemporary patio set is perfect for long summer days.
