Outdoor Benches for Different Outdoor Areas

Outdoor Benches.jpeg

Outdoor benches are rarely found in homes or residential settings; however, in view of their ability to provide comfy seating in different outdoor areas and since outdoor benches are available in various sizes, shapes, styles and materials, many homeowners have started to place outdoor benches in their patios, decks, porches, pool side, backyard, balcony, garden, etc. This article highlights this rising trend and so do the optimal choices.

The best place for summer activities such as snoozing and lolling, your porch calls for comfortable seating. It needs furniture that won’t asleep. Though porch is partially covered, it is still exposed to outside elements.

To place outdoor benches in this area, wicker is the most common choice; however, it may get damaged when exposed to moisture and sun for a long time. The best alternative to wicker outdoor benches is synthetic wicker.  It is the coated natural woven material woven around an aluminum frame. Synthetic wicker outdoor benches are UV resistant and bears an ability to withstand moisture and sun.

Poolside outdoor benches should be made for easy mobility so both shade and sun lovers can have a comfortable seating as the day passes. Wheeled outdoor benches are the most modern and smartest picks since these can be moved easily and without any noise. Usually, wooden outdoor benches are the best choice for poolside since wood is resistant to corrosion. Since poolside is prone to moisture and dampness, metal outdoor benches may not be the best option unless these are coated with resistant proof coating.

Outdoor benches are something mandatory for gardens and lawns since everyone loves to spend time breathing fresh air in, seating on the benches for a couple of minutes. Synthetic plastic outdoor benches as well wooden outdoor benches both make a nice choice here.

the job site & the volvo

once upon a time there was a 1991 Volvo 240 that sputtered 3,000 miles from New York to California. I’m talking about my clunker, affectionately called NormaJean. over the past 15 years she has inadvertently appeared in many photos of projects (before, during, and after) I’ve worked on in San Francisco and beyond. as embarrassing as it may have been to screech up to a half million dollar project in that, she’s still around. I decided to dig through the archives and post photos. she’s not always at center but see if you can spot her in there, smiling for the camera 🙂 2004, Cole Valley SF: 2005, Menlo Park: 2006, Pacific Heights SF:  2009, Foster City: 2010, Mill Valley: 2012, San Francisco: 2012, San Francisco: 2012, Belmont: 2013, Mountain View: 2013, Angwin: 2014, Noe Valley SF: 2016, Mill Valley: 2017, Arnold: the end for now – but not the end of Norma Jean!
