Depending on your style and the size of your space, look for sectionals wrapped in faux rattan for a touch of texture and tropical feel, or solid and durable metal framed designs for a timeless touch topped with plush sunbrella-wrapped cushions perfect for standing up to the elements. Avant-garde plastic designs bring a whimsical touch to a deck or patio, while fully cushioned and upholstered options bring the indoors out for a luxe living space. To craft the perfect outdoor entertainment or lounge space, pair your new outdoor sectional with an outdoor rug to anchor the space, a modern outdoor coffee table for a convenient surface, then scatter outdoor throw pillows and poufs for a touch of comfort, all rounded out with a modern outdoor umbrella to provide a bit of shade when the sun gets too hot. 

What Else to Think About When Buying a Modern Outdoor Sectional

Ultimately, aesthetics and comfort are the most important factors when finding a contemporary outdoor sectional. Finding a design that visually complements your outdoor space and is a reflection of your indoor space is important and ensures a cohesive look throughout your home. If you are unsure of the color to choose for your space, always err on the side of neutral. You want to avoid seasonal or overly trendy prints that will decrease the longevity of a piece and be less versatile. Investing in protective covers is also a great idea to ensure your outdoor sectional always stays in top condition and keeps its good looks for years to come. 

Modern Outdoor Sectionals FAQs

  • What Material is Best for Modern Outdoor Sectionals?

When selecting a modern outdoor sectional, the most durable and longest lasting material is wrought iron as it can withstand the elements with ease lasting decades. It is also the heaviest option out there and may not be the best for moving around. Other durable options include aluminum, cast aluminum, stainless steel, wicker, and wood. Aluminum frames are the most common with outdoor sectionals as it is lightweight, durable, and easy to move about your home. 

  • Can You Leave Outdoor Furniture Out All Year?

While most outdoor furniture is meant to be outside in nearly any weather and won’t be affected, always be sure to check any tags or packaging that might come with your outdoor sectional to see what the proper care is for your piece. Most metal-framed sectionals can be left outdoors all year round, while the cushions may need to come indoors when its a serious rain or snow storm. Wood furniture typically needs to be treated seasonally and while woods like teak are naturally rot and mildew resistant, keeping them covered when outdoors in the off season is the best bet for maintaining their beauty and functionality. 

  • How Do You Layout Patio Furniture?

Your patio furniture layout all depends on the amount of space you have and what you are looking to make of it. For smaller spaces, select a compact sectional and pair with a round or rectangular outdoor coffee table and some throw pillows for a casual set up. For a more spacious deck or backyard, opt for multiple sectionals or modular designs that can be adjusted to suit your space and adapt to the number of guests you are hosting. Add in outdoor coffee tables and end tables for holding snacks, drinks, and electronics, while outdoor table lamps, string lights, and planters bring the ambiance allowing you to enjoy your space well into the night.
