When planning your outdoor room, map out an area of the space and bring your dimensions to the outdoor furniture stores at Hickory Furniture Mart.  One of our interior designers will assist with laying out the best seating arrangement to accommodate an outdoor sectional.

An L-Shaped sectional with a wicker base and swaddled in plush cushions immediately invites lazy afternoon lounging, whether you are by the pool or on the patio. Curved sectionals create intimate seating areas that can surround a fire pit.  There are multitudes of styles available to suite your design style, and in many different materials.  Find the one that not only provides enough seats, but does not look like it is taking over the area.

Extruded metal frames that have traditional curvy designs come in a variety of finishes. Richly carved teak or mahogany wood styles have a heavier look with a Caribbean flair.  There are also sleek styles that offer straight lines and structured cushions for those with a modern affliction.

Coastal furniture has come a long way from the old folding bases and lumpy cushions.  Your options now are just as extensive as if you were planning the home’s interior.  Fabric technology has increased the number of options available for outdoor furniture, using acrylic fibers that are mold and sun resistant.  A sectional is a great opportunity to mix patterns and add splashes of color with several different fabrics.

Come visit our North Carolina furniture outlets and showrooms to see what style of outdoor sectional will work best in your backyard.  You’ll also be able to finish the area with umbrellas for shading, pull up tables for drinks, and even an outdoor rug to pull the whole area together.  Imagine the possibilities in outdoor decorating when you stop by our outdoor furniture stores.
