Outdoor Patio Decor Trends To Watch

The patio is no longer a decor afterthought. For many families, it's an extension of their living and entertaining space year-round. Consider these trending design and decor ideas for your outdoor space:

1. Extendable Tables

"Flexible" is the name of the game when it comes to outdoor spaces this year. For this trend, an expandable table is a must. An extension table allows you to be ready at a moment's notice if some of your guests' plus ones brings a plus one. There's also more space for summer entertaining extravagance like long buffet tables and a hors d' oeuvres spread that can extend on and on.

2. Luxurious Fireside Lounging

Fire pits and outdoor fireplaces continue their growth in popularity in both cold and warm weather seasons. However, this year the seating around them is trending much grander. An extra lounge setting around your outdoor fireplace or fire pit will ensure that you'll relax long into the evening. Consider a modular set or a rattan lounge or sofa for the ultimate in outdoor enjoyment. Not cosy enough? An outdoor daybed can be the ideal place for you and your partner to relax by the fire with a glass of wine.

3. Multifunctional Sets

Continuing the trend toward flexible seating this year is outdoor furniture that has multiple functions. Chairs with built-in storage are stylish and convenient, and benches and ottomans that function as seats, storage, or small end tables allow you reconfigure a patio arrangement for each gathering. Modular outdoor lounges let you change configurations as needed to suit just about any size gathering for any theme or purpose. The Linz line is full of possibilities for artful arrangements, and Persia lounges are known for their flexible rattan style that can be changed up into a variety of appealing looks.

4. Hanging Egg Chairs

Unique pieces that serve as both design focal points and conversation starters are also trending right now. Hanging egg chairs bring throwback appeal and sleek, stylish comfort. Hanging egg chairs chairs are perfect for small spaces such as balconies, or as an accent piece on larger patios or decks.
