In the city, outdoor space can be a luxury. But that should not stop you from making the most of your smaller patio, back yard or balcony.

You can transform your small outdoor space into a comfortable relaxing sanctuary with the right patio furniture. Here are 3 easy tips to fit your patio furniture.

Choose a focal point

Choose a focal point in your outdoor space to serve as the center of your patio or balcony. It will be the primary gathering point and all furniture will build around and away from it.

Symmetry

Since you have limited outdoor space, every patio furniture you choose must compliment the space and the mood you want to create. For example, if you want a casual or quirky look for your space, go for an asymmetrical patio arrangement. But if you prefer a more formal feel, arrange patio furniture in a symmetrical arrangement.

The longest wall

You need to place your patio furniture strategically when you are working with limited space. Keep the longest piece of furniture along the longest wall and let it face the focal point. Now you can add other pieces of furniture around it and accessorize your outdoor space.

Make the most of your small outdoor space by smartly arranging your patio furniture and accessories.
