Furniture Configuration Tips to Transform Your Outdoor Living Space

As summer approaches, the sunny days and beautiful evenings are often enjoyed in outdoor living spaces. If you wish to enhance your outdoor living space, the process can be as simple as reconfiguring some of your current furniture pieces and adding a few new items to tie the area together. Arranging patio furniture in a different fashion can transform both the feel and function of your outdoor room! Burkholder offers some practical tips that are certain to improve your outdoor living space.

Four Ways to Up Your Outdoor Space Game

Create A Cozy Ambiance

A surefire way to ensure your outdoor space achieves a cozy atmosphere is to use smaller pieces– such as loveseats instead of sofas – or arrange pieces in a circle or semi-circle fashion. Doing so keeps seated members close, comfortable, and engaged around a central item: such as your coffee table or fire pit.

Break It Up

Even if your patio is large, you might want to avoid overwhelming the space with huge, cumbersome pieces of furniture. Instead, try breaking the space up into smaller areas that functionally coincide with your living and entertainment styles. Achieving this look can be as easy as arranging your furniture groupings in different directions. For example, creating a circle of chairs facing away from your outdoor kitchen can break up your eating and entertainment spaces. Make sure to balance out the larger furniture by incorporating smaller pieces, such as ottomans or accent tables, too!

Use Your Vegetation Wisely

Use vegetation to your advantage! Arranging your furniture under your trees creates a patio nook, an intimate and relaxing space. On the other hand, setting up a table in a bright, unshaded area of your yard creates the space for a fresh, alfresco patio dining experience.

If your yard is overwhelmed with vegetation, make your own “staycation” area: add furniture with vivid cushions to match your vibrant plant life. Our furniture comes in a wide array of fun colors. Additionally, adding patio mood lighting is a great way to counteract the shade, and creates an inviting climate for visitors.

Remember to Relax

Even if your outdoor living room primarily serves as entertainment area, remember to relax in your space! Adding a chaise or a hammock is a great way to achieve a tranquil feeling, as is arranging your furniture to face a view, like your pool or a forest. If these views are unavailable to you, adding some attractive potted plants will work, too!

An outdoor bar with bar height seating is a comfortable place to unwind and talk with friends on the weekend. This bar has a refrigerator, pergola and surrounding seating as well: everything you need for a casual gathering.
