Why We Love Outdoor Furniture

Most outdoor furniture is weather resistant and comfortable, making it a great addition to your next outdoor family BBQ or summer party. The large selection of contemporary outdoor furniture makes creating the perfect atmosphere for a warm summer breeze. From outdoor sofas to individual patio chairs and outdoor dining furniture, there's no limit to creating the perfect combination of furniture for your outdoor living area.

Outdoor Furniture Ideas for Every Style

Patio chairs, outdoor-friendly sofas and other seating forms from Blu Dot will grace your outdoor living space with contemporary style while Vondom offers a number of modern, sharp-lined tables for everyday dining. Traditionally styled outdoor areas benefit from a patio dining set from Skargaarden or Domitalia. Consider adding an outdoor bench for compact spaces and if it is exceptional comfort you want for your deck or patio, be sure to see the hammocks and plush bean bag chairs from Fatboy.

How to Choose the Best Outdoor Furniture

• Where will You Place Your Outdoor Furniture?

  It's an important first step to decide where exactly you will place your new outdoor furniture pieces. Knowing if the furniture is used for the patio or the deck versus the front porch will help you decide just what you need. You may also determine its placement by how you plan to use it.

• What are the Best Colors and Finishes to Choose?

  If you already have furnishings and lighting in your outdoor living area, consider coordinating with a similar color palette. Consider the style you're aiming for too - black, white and gray make a minimalist statement, while colorful outdoor sets offer a popping personality the great outdoors will appreciate.

• How do I Clean my Patio Furniture?

  Knowing that you'll want a piece of furniture that can withstand the elements means it also needs to be easily maintained and cleaned. If you are choosing wooden outdoor furniture, pay close attention to what types of cleaners you are able to use as there are different suggestions for varying types of wood. For metal outdoor furniture, you may want to use a wire brush to remove any built-up rust. Routine maintenance will keep any furniture looking new and clean.

Other Considerations

Enjoy relaxing in your new patio lounge chair with a variety of outdoor lighting fixtures. The collection of modern outdoor lighting is comprised of flushmounts, wall sconces, portable lamps, post lights and landscape lighting. You'll also want to take a look at the outdoor living category to dress up the patio dining table with modern decorations, centerpieces and other unique things to make outdoor entertaining extra special.
