The allure of any home depends on the style of the entire living space, including the outdoor deck and yard. By finding the right deck furniture, your family and guests will be enticed to spend time in your patio area. Don’t waste the wonderful asset of outdoor space by leaving it bare and uninviting. For classic, lasting beauty and comfort, wood furniture has always been a perfect choice. From Adirondack chairs to benches and gliders, outdoor wood furniture can transform your deck.
The Smaller Deck
The size and shape of your deck should be your first consideration in choosing your new furniture. Even a small area can become a center of relaxation and socialization with the appropriate choices. By choosing large pieces or too many, the space will feel crowded, so find a few smaller chairs and tables. A couple of small end tables will give your guests a place to set their drinks or plates without taking up as much space as a full table would. The most well known wood furniture remains the Adirondack, but be careful with these chairs if you have limited space as two or three regular pieces can fit in the same area.
The Spacious Deck
If you have an open, spacious deck, be sure to purchase larger scaled pieces that will not become lost among the other decorations on your deck. In addition to a large table and chairs, you may want to consider benches, gliders, or the ever popular Adirondack. You may even be able to create more than one cluster of seats giving guests different areas for socializing. Be sure to utilize any views from your deck, facing furniture in the best direction. If your deck has a high railing but beautiful views, you may consider higher, bar height chairs so people can easily see over.
Party Time on Your Deck
If you regularly entertain, it may be in your best interest to invest in multiple tables and higher numbers of chairs. However, if your family normally uses seating for 4 to 6 people with occasional guests, you may want to consider expansion seating. This can save you money and space while keeping the option of entertaining open. Many high quality folding wood chairs can be found that will match the style and comfort of your main deck furniture set. Even folding tables can be stylish but practical for families that enjoy hosting parties but remain on a budget.
You Choose the Mood
The right choices in your furniture can shape the atmosphere and feel of your deck. By placing chairs in half circles, you foster conversation. Placing comfortable chairs outward toward a view creates a peaceful, relaxing feel. A bench or long glider invites couples to sit side by side in intimacy. A table at the center of your deck welcomes outdoor meals with family and friends. Really, the choice is yours. There is no question that any outdoor living space can be converted into your favorite “room”. Decide what fits you and begin shopping today.
