Design tips for decorating a trendy style outdoor

Here’s how to achieve the trendy aesthetic room of your dreams.

What’s the best way to design and decorate a trendy outdoor?

Outdoor spaces offer a unique opportunity to blend the comfort of indoor living with the beauty of nature. Whether you're designing a cozy patio, a vibrant garden, or a functional outdoor kitchen, the design of your outdoor space is key to creating an environment where relaxation and entertainment can flourish side by side (and mother nature can shine!).

Here's how to approach your outdoor makeover for a seamless transition from indoors to out:

  • Zoning: Define distinct areas for different activities, such as dining, lounging, and gardening. Consider the flow between these zones to encourage easy movement and interaction.
  • Furniture Selection: Choose pieces that not only complement your aesthetic but are also durable and suited for outdoor conditions. Consider the scale of the furniture in relation to the space to avoid overcrowding or underutilization.
  • Natural Elements: Integrate your layout with the existing landscape. Use the contours of your garden, the direction of sunlight, and natural wind patterns to inform the placement of furniture and features.
  • Privacy and Comfort: Incorporate elements that enhance privacy and comfort, such as strategic plantings, pergolas, or screens. These can also add texture and color to your outdoor space.
  • Lighting: Plan for a mix of functional and ambient lighting to extend the usability of your outdoor space into the evening. Solar-powered lights, lanterns, and LED strips can illuminate paths and highlight key features without overwhelming the natural night-time setting.

By carefully considering these elements, you can create an outdoor design that not only extends your living space but also enhances your connection to the outdoors, making every moment spent outside a rejuvenating experience​​. If you need an extra hand in your design process, check out our step-by-step guide on How To Design a Room.

What materials and home decor should I use to achieve a trendy outdoor design?

Unlike traditional and defined design styles, trendy interiors are ever changing. Just like in fashion, interior design trends come and go. Some trends become modern traditions (looking at you, shiplap), others become outdated, serving as nostalgic reminders of past design periods.

To infuse your outdoor with a trendy vibe, you’ll need to keep your pulse on current and up-and-coming design movements. Stay up-to-date with the latest design publications, HGTV shows, social media platforms, and influential design shows. Incorporating trendy elements into your decor could mean experimenting with the color of the year or integrating furniture and accessories that reflect cutting-edge materials and forms. Trendy design is not just about superficial aesthetics but also about embodying the zeitgeist, from sustainability-focused materials to tech-integrated furnishings, ensuring your space not only looks current but also aligns with contemporary values and lifestyles.

Word to the wise: The key to incorporating trends is balance. Blending trendy furniture and decor with classic elements can ensure your space has staying power and doesn’t look like a time capsule a decade later.
