Move over spring – because summer is right around the corner! That means it’s time to trade those blasé spring pastels in for some enticing summer bolds! Transform the look of your outdoor space by infusing one of these bold color combinations into your furniture and outdoor decor:

1. Black and Golden Yellow

Combine these dramatic colors for a winning combination within your outdoor living space. The lemon exudes happiness and brightens up the space while the black packs an unexpected punch. Look at how the yellow vase next to Fifthroom.com’s black Ash Porch Swing creates a fierce, striking combination:

Add décor with combinations of simple colors like black and white to your newly designed space. A black and white umbrella or yellow flowers go well with this new theme.

2. Citrus Colors

Fruity colors like deep red, light green, bright yellow, and hot orange pair well together! These tangy colors will match the heat of the sun forming a relaxing, yet upbeat space that’s made for outdoor entertaining. Our 32” x 36” Cypress Folding Table and Two Chairs comes in a variety of fun colors. This one is shown in Coral.

Add white decor to serve as an accent. Try using a white Moroccan-style lantern, bright stringed lights over top, or sparkling white plates for an ultra feminine and soothing touch.

3. Tropical Pairings

One of the most bold color pairings this season is mixing fiery reds with icy blues! Use these colors in everything from décor to furniture to establish a powerful, tropical setting. Blue pillows below a red umbrella like our Polyester model create an exciting theme for your outdoor space.

Our umbrellas are available in 8 colors; so you could alternatively position a navy-colored umbrella over a red outdoor sofa.
