Its patio furniture season again and your options won't be complete without seeing Triconfort and their Biarritz collection. It is hard to find outdoor furniture that transitions the same look and quality to your patio as you have in your living room, but here it is. Triconfort dressed up the Biarritz with bold lines, aluminum accents, and sharp eye popping fabrics contrasted by rich dark wood. The series includes every thing you could need like full length reclining lounge chairs, full sofa groupings, and coffee and end tables, just like inside!


Imagine working all week, being responsible, and then spending your most valuable time in junky patio and outdoor furniture. Brown Jordan has an entirely different plan for you this summer. No matter what you are looking for from the Fusion woven sectional, to the Calcutta cast aluminum sofa and loveseat, it will look good and feel great if Brown Jordan is part of the setting. Since 1945 they have been perfecting their quality based patio furniture, and the "timeless, essential, elegant" philosophy holds true. The full collection also includes teak wood and stainless steel for outside, and some equally stunning interior dining table sets if you must go inside.

The Lido Outdoor Lounger by Wohnbedarf, a Mediterranean beach chair turned luxury rocking chair proved to me that people from all facets of life don't always enjoy a stationary chair. The designers Battista and Guido Giudici captured comfort and the 1930's design without compromising one for the other. While this outdoor lounger may not look like much, it's made to stand up to the elements with it's galvanized steel frame and cotton/linen seats.
Personally, if it wasn't for the price tag of $1,350 I'd be ordering myself one from Lumens online store and clearing out a space for it in my apartment as we speak. With measurements of 23"w x 43"l x 41"h I would find the Lido outdoor lounger to be much more comfortable then the white plastic ones I have out back now. Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to just purchase the lounger when they sell the leg rest as well.

I always seem to find myself intrigued by the most random furniture, and the Nest Armchair designed by Tord Boontje is no different. This modern armchair gives off more of a feeling that it's art work rather than a chair as it is made out of rotationally molded colored polyethylene. This nest armchair provides an excellent opportunity to utilize the same piece of furniture for multiple functions with it's decorative and useful design.The Tord Boontje Nest Armchair from Moroso is available in several vibrant colors including neon red, neon yellow, and neon orange which only add to its allure. In addition, the Nest Chair is perfect for indoor or outdoor use and may even help fill your need for the most stylish patio furniture on the block.

It's everyone's dream to have great outdoor patio furniture where they can relax and escape the rigors of the world. One of my favorites is a quality lounge chair that offers a chance to recline and take that edge off. The Zofa lounge chair from Dedon offers great looks and the chance for such relaxation. Pictured here in chalk color, the Zofa collection is made of top notch woven fibers with ample cushions. I particularly enjoy the small side table, which is perfect for your favorite beverage whether it be coffee with the morning newspaper or a cool margarita as you watch the sunset. Dedon stops at nothing to ensure the best quality in craftsmanship. Each piece is hand woven and contains hundreds of meters of fibers. It is not uncommon for a single piece from their line to take up to 7 days of weaving to complete. Another advantage to hand weaving, is that each piece is unique in its own right.
