Uniquely Florida: Outdoor Spaces to Enjoy All Year

Everything is better when done outdoors. And residing in Southwest Florida, you have plenty of opportunity
to live life alfresco on the daily, whether heading to the beach, relaxing by the pool, strolling through a farmer’s
market or dining at a sidewalk café. 

To keep that outdoor energy going all day and into the night, we turn to living spaces that blur the lines between
inside and out. Creating an open-air oasis that feels like an extension of your home invites you (and your guests) to
linger just a little longer. Whatever your end goal – lounging around or living it up – we have just the right mix of
furniture from sofas to chairs to dining tables that will keep the mood going long after the sun has set.

Outdoor Seating that Keeps the Conversation
Flowing

Sit a Spell

A sofa and chair provide more than just a place to sit. They create intimacy by making clever use of outdoor space,
whether arranged on a sweeping rooftop terrace, an expanse of lawn, poolside or in a patio. 

Consider generously proportioned options, like the pieces in our Siesta Key Collection, named for a laid-back island
just off the coast of Sarasota. With wonderfully relaxed silhouettes that impart a casual-chic aesthetic (just like
Siesta Key Village), they invite relaxation with a welcoming design. Better in pairs, the chair swivels to face wherever
the conversation is headed. Both pieces are slipcovered with easy, fuss-free fabric that’s resistant to paw prints, spills
and whatever the weather may bring.

Our Brooke Collection makes any outdoor space just as luxuriously livable as its indoor counterpart. Both the sofa
and chair get their modern edge from clean lines, a low profile, sloped arms and thick, boxed legs. Amply plumped
cushions offer soft, sink-in comfort, while lumbar pillows provide added back support.

Pouf, Like Magic

Endlessly versatile, a pouf is a must-have accent that instantly adds a pop of personality to your outdoor seating
arrangements. These master multitaskers can be used as an impromptu seat, a place to prop your feet or as extra
surface space (think side table or coffee table). Our Bottega Pouf adds a subtle shot of color and pattern to your seating
mix with thin, multicolored stripes in soothing sea-inspired shades. Just as comfortable indoors, the welted trim brings
tailored touch to the design.

Bringing the Indoors, Out

An outdoor living area deserves the same level of attention and detail as the interior of your home. Think about all
the pieces that up the comfort factor, then reimagine them outside.

Take It to the floor

Rugs set the tone of your space by adding color, depth and texture, as well as softness underfoot. Use them strategically
to visually separate areas outside by placing a virtual frame around your furniture. For expansive outdoor spaces
without structure, a rug can be used to anchor a seating area to make it more conversational in nature. Floor coverings
crafted from manmade materials, such as nylon and polyester, are often water-resistant and highly durable, while
natural fiber rugs like jute and bamboo are best suited to covered patios.

Bring It to the Table

Whether sipping coffee solo or hosting a dinner party, a dining table offers a place to relax and recharge. Our
Woven Collection features an assortment of pieces to create a cohesive look and feel. Crafted of teak that weathers
over time to a beautiful patina, this table’s round silhouette can always accommodate one more guest. The optional
Lazy Susan makes serving a breeze, while the coordinating mixed material dining chairs add cushioned comfort.

Outdoor Mood Lighting

Keep the party glowing into the night by adding layers of illumination. Start with sconces on the exterior of your
home to light the way, then add an overhead chandelier or natural fiber pendant to a covered patio area. Take
advantage of the Florida sunshine and stake solar-powered lights along garden paths. Place large lanterns on the
ground near seating areas, along with hurricanes and votive candles on tabletops. Use flameless candles for a
worry-free flicker. For the pièce de resistance, hang string lights across a pool, pond or fountain to beautifully expose
the reflective quality of water.

Being outside is synonymous with the Florida lifestyle we get to enjoy – and there’s no time of year like the present
to live outside. With a few key pieces of weather-friendly furniture, you can enjoy all that the great outdoors has to
offer year-round.
