COMFORT
Test-drive furniture before you buy. Sit in it, lie on it and envision it in your space.
SCALE
Measure your space; lay out your design before buying.
STYLE
Whether wood, wrought iron, wicker, aluminum or mixed materials, the style should fit your setting's ambience.
DURABILITY
Quality costs more initially, but the furniture will last for years.
DESIGN
Specific pieces could result in a better-designed space. A teak storage bench can double as a table, seat or cooler. A baker's rack can be used for potted plants or to store dishes, place mats and art pieces.
FOCAL POINT
A striking fountain, fire pit or sculpture can be the key element that ties your outdoor decor together.
