Outdoor living: Already dreaming of the warm weather? So are we!

When planning for ways to entertain in 2021, we are looking for safe and socially distanced ideas. Cue the outdoor living area. It just makes sense to host friends in your backyard.  The outdoor furniture trends of 2021 are addressing the world we are living in. It is all about bringing the comfort of the indoors outside and expanding your household living space with an outdoor living area to relax and safely entertain at home.

 BRING THE INDOORS OUTSIDE

This trend has been developing for a while, and now it is in flourishing. Gone are the cheap plastic outdoor furniture sets some of us may remember from the last century — householders are craving the comfort and quality of indoor furniture out on the deck. Investing in quality poly garden furniture is all about collecting high-quality pieces that will look good, last for years and offer the comfort of the living room or dining room outdoors.

 OPEN ROOMS

With travel restrictions throughout 2020, people have been investing their holiday funds into updates that bring the destination feel home, such as expanding their decks, popping on pergolas and pavilions. Patios are becoming extensions of living areas to allow additional square footage for the household, an open-air entertaining space and usability all year round.
These open rooms, sunrooms and enclosed patios allow for far more flexibility in outdoor furnishings. Tables look new for years to come when kept in covered spaces, and outdoor cushions never need to be packed away.

SOFT OUTDOOR ACCESSORIES

Sofas, coffee tables, cushions, rugs and outdoor lighting can be kicked into the next level when items are protected from the weather. By using rain fabrics or water repel sprays, you will be able to relax on your cushions for years to come.

Enjoy outdoor living on a grander scale by trying this major outdoor furniture trends of 2021.
Vibrant, colourful fabric and tropical themes are all the rage in soft outdoor furnishings — such as Aruba Blues, Natural Teak, Brazilian Walnut and Tropical Colours— look to create paradise on the patio.

FIRE PITS 

Temperature control goes hand in hand with expanding decks and outdoor spaces. Fire pits have never been more popular. Bring a cuddly throw blanket and a glass of your favourite beverage, get enchanted by the flames beneath the stars. A toasty heat source outside lets you enjoy your outdoor area even in winter.

 ECO-FRIENDLY & SUSTAINABLE

The importance of recycled and sustainable materials such as our poly lumber (which we will be sharing more on in a future article) has become enormously apparent in the Canadian market. People are looking for hardy and eco-friendly furnishings that last longer and have less impact on the planet.

 DEEP SEATING  & COMFORT

Deep, comfy and high-quality furniture goes hand-in-hand with increased outdoor living.  Sofas, rockers, loveseats and chairs are available with thick cushioning and many options of stylish fabrics.
It is all about that outdoor living room vibes to creates spaces you can relax for hours, entertain, spend time with the family. You could even bring the laptop out and work in the sunshine or maybe even stream your favourite show online.
