From sustainable furniture materials to Greek gardens, some outdoor living design choices are emerging for this year, although these trends will likely never go out of style.

1. Luxurious Outdoor Living Starts with an Indoor-Outdoor Merge

Indoor living is merging with outdoor living in new 2023 outdoor living trends.

A top trend that’s been brewing for a few years is the full integration of indoor and outdoor living spaces. This includes adding enclosed verandas and partially covered gardens, as well as opening up the home to the garden or patio through folding glass doors.

2. Greek-Inspired Touches for Your Outdoor Spaces

Greek-inspired touches add depth and warmth to your outdoor spaces.

Greek-inspired gardens embody romance and history. Incorporate elements such as Grecian statues, columns, formal hedges, archways, gravel gardens, and stone pathways to make your Greek dreams come true. Plant olive trees, houseplants, boxwood, and white roses to provide shade for seating areas.

3. Terra Cotta

Terra cotta color and materials add Mediterranean warmth to your outdoor living spaces.

Terra cotta, which translates as “baked earth,” is a reddish-brown unglazed clay used to make pots and planters. Both the terra-cotta material and color are expected to play a significant role in backyard design in the coming year, adding a Moroccan or Mediterranean sense of style.

4. Outdoor Living is All About Upscale Relaxation

Create upscale relaxation in your outdoor living spaces.

People often want to feel like they’re on vacation when relaxing in their own backyard since the pandemic. This style is all about upscale relaxation, and it includes high-quality furniture, outdoor rugs, pizza ovens, water features, elaborate firepits, covered outdoor kitchens, and other features.

5. Sustainable Furniture

Sustainable materials are huge in outdoor living design for 2023.

Consumers continue to prioritize the environment in their purchases, and this trend is expected to continue in the coming year. The sustainable outdoor furniture industry is thriving, with more options such as bamboo, recycled plastic, rattan, and other eco-friendly materials.
