Enjoy the benefits of natural light, fresh air, and vitamin D by creating a fully functional and harmonious indoor-outdoor living area. From a small balcony to a spacious backyard, your outdoor space should be utilized to the fullest. To achieve a limitless space vibe, we have put together three helpful tips to seamlessly integrate your indoor and outdoor areas.
Tip 1: Create a Borderless Indoor-Outdoor Space For a unified living area, think of your indoor and outdoor space as one. Opt for matching flooring, such as porcelain tiles, that work well both indoors and outdoors. Consider slightly different textures, such as a softer texture for the indoor area and an anti-skid texture for the outdoor area. If you prefer natural wood flooring, learn about exterior maintenance techniques for an ageless look.
Tip 2: Create a Joint Style Functionality is key when designing a space that suits your lifestyle. Analyze your daily habits and create a comfortable lounge area near your kitchen or indoor dining space for endless summer dinners. Add a playhouse for kids near the lounging area and set up a fun playground for pets. Consider investing in high-quality patio furniture and outdoor decorations to create a similar design style for both indoor and outdoor areas.
Tip 3: Invite the Outdoors In To create a borderless indoor-outdoor space, bring the outdoors in by letting natural light into your home. Opt for large windows or folding glass doors. Add natural plants near windows and doors to create a smooth transition from indoor to outdoor space. Consider adding a fire pit for colder days and sunshades for protection during hot summer days. Don’t overlook the power of stylish decorations to make your indoor-outdoor space pop all year round.
