Mid-Century Design for Small Outdoor Spaces’

The design trends are more and more heading towards shorter and smaller areas and, because of that, it’s only natural that questions about “How to make the room look bigger than what it actually is?” come up. For that, we’ll try to help you make your Outdoor Space look bigger than it is, with a few mid-century design tricks.

1. Furniture it

A simple mistake people make is: “Well, I already don’t have a lot of space, so I might as well not furniture it to have more free space”. As the President of the United States would say: “Wrong”.

Not furnishing your outdoors’ space is a good option if you want a space for your kids to play soccer. But if you want a place to relax, furniture is the way to go!

Make sure your outdoors’ style matches your indoors’ and get something you relate with and that makes you relaxed.

2. Mind the Accessories!

Furniture being established, you want to consider some accessories now.

The trick is simple, basically the same as furniture, choose something that goes well with the mid-century style of your home and that you feel comfortable with.

Don’t forget to consider usable accessories (like pillowa and rugs) and some decorating accessories (like a clock).

3. Plants

Always keep in mind having some plants that give a refreshing vibe to your outdoor space!

Now, if you still have enough space left, you can choose something like a vase. If they occupy to much space, you always have the option of vertical gardens. They occupy little to no space and they are always placed near the walls of your outdoors.

4. Colors

Vital for indoors’ and still very important for outdoors’!

People that seek a place to relax with some plants can always go with green. The safest choise.

If you think you are more bold than that, go ahead and choose something more agressive. Just remember that the colors you choose should be in agreement with thw style that you have previously choosen for your indoor mid-century design.

5. A Fountain, why not?

You want to relax, right? Go ahead and get one.

The sound of the water is great to smooth your mind and it always ads up to your mid-century style.
