Winter is almost coming to an end, which means this is a good time to start thinking about ideas to spruce up your deck and patio. Furnish it with accessories and designs that add comfort and style to your outdoor space. Here are a few suggestions to get you started.
Make it Comfortable
Make sure your outdoor furniture doesn’t just look comfortable but also feels comfy. If you’re going for a neutral sofa, adding accent pillows will make the overall look pop.

Accessories and Transitions
Create a transition from your backyard to the deck by adding steps. Take it a step further by featuring a corner for seating or dining and add accessories that pull the house color onto the deck.

Elevated Deck
This is a great way to add dimension to your backyard and also create the illusion of having two different rooms.

Poolside Sunlounging
Soak up the sun in comfort and style. Timber decking around the swimming pool is a fantastic way to create stunning, sustainable terraces, ideal for sun-lounging or soft seating around the pool.

Enclosed Deck
An enclosed deck has the benefit of being usable all year round and is less prone to weathering and deterioration than an open deck. The design makes it particularly efficient since it essentially becomes an outdoor living room that can be furnished to suit individual needs.

Plants for Privacy
Create a privacy wall made of a row of evergreens that will also standout in the neutral setting. Alternatively, you could choose a wooden square lattice wall to create the illusion of a wall. Creepers and climbing plants will then start to grow, forming a fragrant wall of blooms.

Focus Point
Choose one area of your deck and furnish it with a special furniture piece to create the focal point. It not only brightens the space but adds to the overall appearance.

Use Pillows
Give your deck an indoor-worthy look with a set of vibrant and plush pillows. These pillows reinforce the design theme, whether you add them to outdoor chairs or make them available for guests who prefer to lounge by the deck’s edge. For simple or sew pillow covers, choose outdoor fabrics in uplifting complementary colors.

Add Texture
Materials like wood and stone are great additions to add character to an outdoor space. Timber wood frame structures, shades and a stone fireplace will complete the look.
