Patio trends for 2018




Outdoor design trends for 2018 are all about incorporating affordable luxury into your own backyard by
turning your patio into a peaceful, lush oasis through low-maintenance water fixtures, a color refresh
and vintage materials.
The days of small, bistro-style dining tables on the deck and patio are over, and that large-scale
square and rectangular tables are hot. Trend-watchers are seeing patio furniture that mixes materials,
such as metal and wood, instead of a single material, such as wicker.

Homeowners these days are gravitating toward easy-maintenance exterior garden designs that enhance
physical and mental wellbeing with spa-inspired touches, like meditation benches, fountains, reflecting pools,
rock waterfalls and zen gardens. The low-maintenance water features can add visual interest and soothing
sounds to a yard—even in drought-prone climates—because they actually require little water (and recycle
the water they do use).

Linen, teak and rope are a few of the materials designers are incorporating into exterior furnishings and
accessories to give this year's easy-breezy trend pizazz. Pink is the accent color of choice in 2018,
especially if a hint of blush is introduced into your furniture vignettes.

As far as accessories are concerned, think bright and bold when it comes to fabrics for your patio furniture
cushions in 2018. Go with yellows, reds and pinks that will pop against all that natural greenery, and your guests
will be raving about your impeccable sense of style all summer long.
