Tips to Redecorate Your Patio with Modern Outdoor Furniture
If you want to let the beauty of nature into your life, create a scenic, relaxing place outdoors for
dining and entertainment purposes. A modern backyard decorated in organic colors can create a
calming and welcoming feel in your patio. Add furniture, cushions and other decorative accessories
to complete a visually appealing outdoor oasis in your home. This article tells you how modern
outdoor furniture and contemporary rugs can give your outdoor space an instant makeover.
A modern outdoor setting features a gazebo, large chairs and tables, and lounge chairs to name a
few. But you could also achieve a stylish look for your outdoors with a few tips and tricks. A few
inspiring designs and some exciting alternatives can work wonders in transforming the space
drastically. When you're looking for modern outdoor furniture, think about durable construction,
refined finish and an aesthetically pleasing look. Since, you are going to place the furniture in an
open area, look for long-lasting weather resistant furniture. While portable furniture is easy to
transport from one place to another, you can opt for more permanent furniture if you often have guests visiting.
Shopping for modern outdoor furniture can be an exciting experience. Choosing furniture that is durable and creates a lavish place for leisure is easy with the
varieties of styles available today. You can host a dinner party or a Sunday brunch with a little creativity and create the same contemporary home dcor outside by
adding interesting and fun elements. Apart from the furniture, you could also look for other accessories to enhance your exterior. Contemporary rugs are a
fantastic way of sprucing-up your home.
Contemporary rugs are offered in a multitude of colors, styles, shapes and patterns. Rugs featuring a bold color or an attractive pattern can bring home beauty
and style. For contemporary dcor, opt for contemporary rugs featuring geometrical, floral or abstract patterns. You could also place these rugs outdoors to impart
a sense of warmth and coziness in the ambience. These rugs are like artwork for a floor, and when chosen well can add a beautiful touch to your home.
Invest in good quality modern outdoor furniture that you and your family can use for years to come.

As an interior designer; I constantly push my creativity. So,I ask what would you like to see out there today?
I am trying to be innovative with simple everyday objects; almost reviving them into a new modern fashion. It could be anything! For example, pillows, fabrics, luggage, kitchen
objects, home accessories, outdoor objects, furniture..etc. Be creative, ask yourself what inspires you or what would be so cool to have in your home? Or even ask, what are
you tired of seeing and would you rather see?
Thank you for your help

As you have listed many options for ideas, apply several ideas to each of those,
any new style within a building or location, in itself has a platform or landscape to which you can apply an environment, since placing one or two out of thousands of
ideas may be mute, you could extend and accentuate any one idea, there is more freedom technologically to incorporate ideas in moods and trends to set a design in
action, if any idea was to be used, it may have been from retro refit, the allowance to reconfigure what is, and be able to implement , may not be allowed due to standards,
still ideas are malleable ,
Waves and curves in designs, extruded or as relief in textures,
Retro fitted, everything within room or space, is faded as a polaroid colour value, dulled or aged,
Folds, curtailed,pleated in all aspects, pleated steps, pleated coffee mugs, pleated, tables,
Color matched, space is tailored to habitat, outdoors: green grass, blue sky, dark waters,
Lights and shadows, even though room is bare, the tones have shadows and highlights pre-painted,
Textures, of the color used, if chair is green, it has leaf relief pattern, if coffee table is black, it is empty void of space, if bedding is white, it is a wave of sea crested foam,
Kisses, everything smothered with lipstick colours, and make-up tones and actually look like giant cosmetic cases as furniture,
Abstract, have oddities through space of layer, nothing at first appears coordinated, but gradually everything fits, fashion wise, a hanger or wires of decor, placed in
reference to clothing folded or strewn afoot, shoes in design, with fittings opposite of room , or shoe boxes as drawers, strings of jewelry casted upon the ceiling, but
actually as chandelier lights, And for each type of room the same abstract applies , garage/car parts, den/ dungeon, kitchen/ utilities, bedroom/ bathtubs,…
Typography, everything is in the shape of what it is, C chair, T table, R rug, B bookends E,
Etiquette ans elegance, all things fine and finite, almost grandeur and breath taking in refinement,

bean bag or armchair for modern additional seating in my living room?
I have one long leather 4 seater sofa. But I need addional comfort seating for when my friends visit as I think me having the one sofa is a bit off putting for my friends
What do you think about these?

Bean bags okay for student pads as they were usually in the 70′s when we couldnt afford a proper sofa lols… Why not go for one of the TUB chairs… Quality Save do
some cheaper or a shop called B&M in fabric or leather I have tried they are really comfortable and will last a lot longer than the bean bag! Gd luck )
