Just like decorating the rooms inside your home, designing an outdoor patio or deck is all about selecting patio furniture pieces that are both stylish and functional. Whether you’re looking to entertain guests, enjoy family meals al fresca, or simply unwind in your private backyard retreat, these patio furniture essentials will help you create a versatile and inviting outdoor space for summer.
Comfortable Seating
Durable, comfortable seating is a must for any backyard retreat. A few of our favorite seating choices include sectional sofas with all-weather cushions, sofa and chair sets made of wicker or teak, chaise lounges, and sling Adirondack chairs.
Our Picks: The matching ottomans really elevate this teak sofa and chair set from the Hamptons Seating collection by Lloyd Flanders, while the Bainbridge Sectional by NCI is the ultimate in comfort and style.
Accent Tables
Outdoor coffee tables and end tables offer form and function to your outdoor space. Not only do they provide you and your guests with a place to rest your drinks, but they serve as an additional design element, helping to frame your space and adding a surface for decorative items.
Our Picks: We love this teak coffee table from the Monterey collection by Three Birds Casuals and the poly side table in the Oceanside collection by Casual Comfort.
Dining Sets
Some of life’s most important conversations happen around the kitchen table, and the same goes for the outdoor dining table. More than a place to enjoy a meal, a beautiful outdoor dining set offers a place to talk, laugh, and enjoy each other’s company. It’s also a great spot for family game night.
Our Picks: For large gatherings, you can’t beat the aluminum Grand Terrace Dining Extension Table by Gensun Casual or the Bazza dining set by Telecope Casual.
Patio Umbrellas
Patio umbrellas are a must for hot, sunny days on the Virginia Peninsula. They offer protection from the sun, minimize glare, and add a pop of color to your outdoor space. Choose from a variety of sizes, colors and styles, including cantilever umbrellas and umbrellas with or without push button tilt.
Our Picks: This red market umbrella from Telescope Casual adds the perfect splash of color by the pool, while the cantilever umbrella from Casual Comfort provides ample shade for all of your guests.
Porch Swings
Perfect for morning coffee, an afternoon nap, or curling up with a good book, patio swings aren’t just for porches anymore. Hung from a pergola, patio swings and daybeds are the ultimate backyard perch, adding a hint of romance and whimsy to your outdoor space.
Our Picks: Relax with a tall glass of lemonade on the Poly Furniture Bed Swing by Casual Comfort or the aluminum Porch Swing by Telescope Casual.
