Here you'll find inspiration from rooftop "rooms" designed by Homepolish designers. Homepolish provides beautiful interior design by the hour with over 450 interior designers nationally.

Simple furnishings

Inexpensive wooden folding chairs make for great outdoor seating. They have a rustic charm that compliments many styles and they can be easily customized with a little paint.

Hardy textiles

Just because it's outside doesn't mean it can't be chic. Weather-resistant fabrics come in every color and pattern imaginable, so don't hesitate to create a beautiful, cohesive space with similar shades. Outdoor furniture that closely mirrors what you'd want to have inside is also now "a thing."
