OUTDOOR FURNITURE PART 2 AND OUTDOOR LIGHTING

MODERN, CONTEMPORARY

OUTDOOR FURNITURE PART 2 AND

OUTDOOR LIGHTING

To finish off my topic of the great outdoors. I have found additional furniture pieces that are perfect for our modern contemporary homes and outdoor patio sitting areas. We now make our patios an extention of our homes and treat it like any other room in our modern homes.

Hope you enjoy these pics:

The furniture above all represents my preferred modern, contemporary design style but is also very stylish and elegant and really brings light and notice to our modern, contemporary patios, pool areas, decks, or even balcony's.

LIGHTING

Every modern, contemporary outdoor patio garden and pool needs something very important to complete that nice styled look. I am talking about lighting of course. Here we have to be careful because sometimes in our desire to make pretty we add to much color or place the lighting in the wrong places completely ruining what is otherwise a beautiful design in landscape designing. And yet other times by not adding enough color we make it feel cold and agin ruin our otherwise perfect landscaping. Its all in the lighting and it can make or break any landscaping project.

Have a look at these ideas:

Overall a perfect blend of lightingh and perfect furniture pieces designed to bring attention to your home and bring out its modern, contemporary features and bring them to light...
