The Challenge: Indoor-Outdoor Living Room
The client contacted Decorilla asking for a skilled interior or patio designer who could transform a gutted outdoor lounge area into a modern indoor-outdoor living room. A space that seamlessly blends with the environment would allow them to enjoy the beautiful natural surroundings year-round. To achieve this, the designer had to:
- Incorporate various organic design elements that combine natural textures, materials, and colors
- Assemble a spacious, comfortable conversation area fit for modern living outdoors
- Consider the large sliding glass doors that open up outside the living room to the backyard
- Decorate a stunning patio living space that provides an immersive experience for the homeowner and their guests

The Inspiration: Modern Living Outdoors
The client’s inspirational gallery provided a captivating glimpse into the kind of patio design ideas they envisioned for themselves. Nestled amongst the collection of photographs were examples of their affection for modern living outdoors and the desire to make it a central aspect of the design. Abundant textures put emphasis on comfort while pushing chic style boundaries. Meanwhile, artful selections in outdoor furniture ideas, accessories, and foliage exemplified convenience, lifestyle, and class.
Outdoor Lounge Area Ideas & Moodboard
The Decorilla team was impressed by the beauty and sophistication of the images, along with the client’s vision and creativity. With such a rich source of inspiration, they quickly found the ideal designer matches, proposing two seasoned team members. Both designers had all the tools to create an initial moodboard that would exceed the client’s expectations and bring their dream to life. Expectedly, opting for only one creative solution was challenging—but the client finally decided to proceed with Jessica S.
Jessica’s initial outdoor lounge area ideas comprised all crucial components setting the tone for the final design. Her moodboard depicted a seamless blend of indoor and outdoor living spaces, focusing on creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Each detail was considered to provide maximum comfort for modern living outdoors. Moreover, the moodboard thrived on earthy tones and textures, promising a serene, enjoyable experience.
Outdoor Lounge Design Results
Design details were crucial in seamlessly transforming the unused porch into an elegant indoor-outdoor living room. The right design choices truly elevate this setup, from carefully selected materials and furniture pieces to lighting fixtures. Lush greenery accentuates the connection between the environment and the seating area adorned with a few thoughtfully selected decor pieces. Meanwhile, the spacious layout allows for a comfortable traffic flow in line with active modern living outdoors.
The furniture pieces are not only comfortable but also durable enough to withstand exposure to the elements. An outdoor sofa, two ample armchairs, and a coffee table are strategically placed to create ambiance and highlight key features of the outside living room. When it comes to color and material choices, the designer opted for natural and earthy tones, teak, and textured performance upholstery.
While textures play a big role in this serene living room outdoors, the key to conveying visual dynamics lies in the pops of boldness. The right effect has been achieved by juxtaposing matte black & white plant pots with bright, organic shades of wood. In addition, the outdoor rug boasts a vibrant pattern, complementing the strong graphic design of the decorative cushion.
The Outside Living Room Before & After
Creating a seamless indoor-outdoor living room space is more than just a trend – it’s a lifestyle choice. With an outdoor lounge design that extends the conventional living space, the client increased the livable square footage of their home. In addition, the connection to the natural world promotes health and wellness by encouraging the residents to spend more time in the fresh air.
