Mix-and-Match Magic

Contrary to popular belief, you don’t always have to perfectly match to have great design. In fact, I believe there are plenty of instances when <a href="https://www.hgtv.ca/decorating/photos/small-space-decor-rules-to-break-1920270/#currentSlide=2" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">overly uniform, “matchy-matchy” design</a> takes away from the character of a space. For a larger outdoor dining area, experimenting with a variety of coordinated seating options can elevate the charm factor while also providing more functional seating. For example, in <a href="https://www.hgtv.ca/shows/backyard-builds/photos/all-the-backyard-inspiration-you-need-right-now-from-backyard-landscaping-ideas-to-backyard-studios-1938180/#currentSlide=23" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">this <em>Backyard Builds </em>space</a>, Sarah and I used a combination of banquettes, chairs and a mix of patterned pillows to maximize seating and style.Outdoors14 Outdoor Dining Space Ideas for the Perfect Summer StaycationMix-and-Match Magic

Just because your outdoor space is on the smaller side, doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy a little weekend brunch under the sun. The key to choosing furniture in any <a href="https://www.hgtv.ca/decorating/photos/small-space-decor-rules-to-break-1920270/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">smaller space</a> is to think about scale — make sure the size of your outdoor dining furniture fits in with the scale of the space for a sense of balance.
