When the temperatures hit triple digits the last thing I want to do is to peel shorts-clad legs off of leather or vinyl furniture.  So my out door chairs have always had no cushions, or, machine washable pillow and seat covers.  For those with screened porches,  you know how dust and pollen gets trapped inside, so being able to launder the outdoor fabrics is essential to keeping them clean.  Here are some easy care pieces and fabrics to keep you cool this summer.

And sometimes the simplicity of a chair that is beautiful and comfortable without a  cushion provides a modern perspective.  While it’s fun to drool over these outdoor rooms, those with a tiny out door space like a balcony or patio may appreciate this set which can be folded and stored indoors during off season.
