Outdoor Design


Designing an outdoor space can be tricky. Like any space, there are challenges to overcome. However, when it comes to outdoor spaces, there are a few things to consider. Here are just 3:

1. Provide shelter from the elements (sun, wind, etc.), and bugs;

2. Choose weather-resistant, comfortable furniture; scale is important, but, the bigger the better;

3. Soften the look of the space and make it inviting with and outdoor rug and pillows; these can also add splashes of color.

Enjoy your space, Rena
