What Your Outdoor Living Space Says About You…

You can tell a lot about someone’s interior design and how they decorate their homes. The same came be said about how one styles their outdoor living space as well.

Outdoor living spaces have different levels of functionality depending on the person. If you are an extrovert and enjoy socializing often, your outdoor living space might reflect this in the amount of seating arrangements you have. Multiple areas including a large dining table, long bar, sectional couches and lounge chairs might suggest you love to host get-togethers with friends and family. This outgoing personality is often expressed with bright colors or patterns and lots of artwork, along with many cushions and a full kitchen to keep your guests comfortable and entertained. This type of style will for sure be a conversation starter in any scenario.

Those who lean more introverted might enjoy minimalist styles and cool tones amongst their environment. This reflects your calm and relaxed personality. You backyard might be viewed as your safe haven and is your own place to let loose after a long day. Instead of excessive seating, your space might include water features and an area for meditation with a lot of plants. While you may still have a social butterfly’s outdoor kitchen or lounging area, it will be more styled to your liking and comfortability. 

You may find yourself to be in between an extreme introvert vs. an extreme extrovert. This may include a mix of features from above, and in addition, a fireplace, pool, or BBQ area. The area is typically well kept in case you have family over, but still designed to your individual liking. Whatever your style is and wherever your personality lands, it’s important to create a design that’s customized to what your outdoor living purpose is.
