Outdoor furniture trends have kept pace with the trend for making better use of outdoor spaces.

Now more than ever outside space is treated as another living area, especially if you're lucky enough to live in a climate where you can be outdoors almost round the year.

Here are some trends in outdoor furniture that will make the outside of your home as attractive as the inside. It's all about expanding the space you have and making it more usable.

Color and Pattern

Color and pattern have as much impact outdoors as they do indoors.

Color in outdoors furnishings is increasingly bolder and vibrant. Colors that you use inside your home or in your apparel are finding their way outside. Pastel blues, turquoise, brown, fresh yellows and greens, as well as black and white are used to make outdoor furnishings more attractive.

* Patterns show a lot of variety, too. Polka dots, bold paisleys and stripes are all present, as well as solids.

Material

Patio furniture comes in all kinds of material today and outdoor fabric is better made than ever before, offering luxurious textures that were previously available for indoor use only.

* Aluminum: Hand wrought aluminum is made by pouring aluminum into a mold. It is light weight and therefore easy to move around.

* Teak: Teak has become very popular of late, because it has the capacity to retain its good looks over a period of time. It is resistant to weathering, rot and insects and requires very little maintenance.

* Wicker: A longtime favorite, wicker still maintains its popularity, being easily available and affordable.

Outdoor rooms are created with groupings of deep seating sofas, stone and glass coffee tables and end tables. Pillows, indoor/outdoor rugs, and plants complete the look.

Outdoor fireplaces and fire pits can make the outdoor space warmer when evenings turn chilly.

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.

I’m not a fan of full matched sets of outdoor furniture, but a 2, 3 or 4 chairs with some personality or design interest look like they have been collected over time, when mixed with some simple occasional seating pieces.

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.
