Alternative flooring options
Outdoor rugs have been common in recent years, but more flooring options are emerging, such as porcelain. Porcelain is known as being durable and simple to install, which is adding to its popularity. Porcelain pavers can create this beautiful transition without creating a huge divide between the two living spaces. Ikea’s beechwood deck tiles are another way to enhance a patio or balcony’s flooring without spending a fortune.
Vertical gardens
A garden can fit in any space outside; just go up instead of out. Vertical gardens maximize the available space by growing herbs and veggies upwards. Arbors, arches, pergolas, and gazebos can help enhance a vertical garden. They’ll create the ambiance of an outdoor garden ‘room’ and give a sense of height and depth to an otherwise small space.

Attention-getting lighting
This year is the time to brighten up the exterior of your home in unexpected ways. If you have an all-white painted brick or stucco home, adding lighting in a fun color like blue with gold hardware creates interest. If your house is already painted a fun color, lighting presents a great opportunity to work in a contrasting color for a striking statement. Hanging stringed Edison-styled bulbs along an outdoor space can create a festive flair to a backyard too.
Blues and greens
Deep blues and greens are on trend this season in outdoor spaces. Fabric cushions and umbrellas are showcasing the color. This year, it’s all about outdoor spaces that feel luxurious rather than cheesy. Think lots of neutrals coupled with gorgeous jewel-toned greens and furniture and accessories that create a truly indoor-outdoor vibe.
