Deck Decorating Ideas: Outdoor Furniture

I love an outdoor living space, especially when it comes to deck decorating. Whether it’s a beautiful, sunny day without a cloud in the sky or a clear evening for star gazing, it’s a spot that can be enjoyed day or night, alone or together (with warm weather, of course :)). Whatever the occasion, it wouldn’t be complete without the selection of furniture. Imagine the comfort of your sofa, but with a settle hint of sunlight warming your skin. A few simple pieces can make for a seamless transition inside to out. There’s even proof behind the positive correlation between spending time in nature and our health.

Explore how to discover and develop your outdoor furniture layout through the inspiration of these deck decorating ideas in 2022.

Solidify Color Palette

In my last post, I touched on how to find the best color palette for your outdoor space. Choosing your color palette prior to selecting furniture will help for a smoother design process.

I love a warmer palette. Just like my interiors, I used similar colors to make for an easy transition between indoors and out. Combining a bold color with neutrals brings balance, while still showcasing personality.

Review Purpose & Priorities

When selecting furniture, consider the why. Why am I buying this furniture? What purpose does it serve?

Then consider the space’s priorities. Will this be your specified entertaining space? Will this be a spot for family dinners? Will it be a place to curl up with a book? Maybe all of the above?

Consider Location

Once your purpose & priorities are set, determine how the space will lay out. Existing landscaping is a great place to start. In the design below, Fytogreen uses a green wall as a backdrop for an outdoor dining table. Talk about a place to entertain *chef’s kiss*.
