A well-arranged patio can be the foundation of a fantastic summer, and there are seemingly endless possibilities. Whether you’re investing in an outdoor sofa or a complete patio set, you’ll want to begin exploring layout ideas. Below are a few to spark your inspiration or that you can use as a blueprint for your outdoor area.

How to Arrange Patio Furniture

1. Use the Reliable Four-Chair Layout

Looking for a fast, proven solution? Arranging four chairs in a circle facing each other is a timeless favorite. Simply purchase four of the same chairs and place them under an awning or around a firepit. This layout is perfect for allowing each guest to sit comfortably and to engage in conversation.

2. Create a Boundary With Sectionals

Explore durable, steel framing with plush weatherproof cushions to ensure you accommodate a large group of guests comfortably.

3. Mix Chairs & Loveseats

A chair and loveseat sofa combination lends you several design options. Place two chairs opposite of a loveseat or organize them around a large coffee table.

You can also place two loveseats against the home exterior and chairs and side tables across from them. Enjoy being able to switch the layout up from time to time, so it always feels fresh.

4. Substitute Ottomans for Tables

If bulky coffee or side tables are getting in the way, or if they simply aren’t getting used, swap them out for an ottoman. You can still set a tray on these when you need them to serve as a table and will enjoy having a place to rest your legs after a long day.
