Keep your outdoor space comfortable and consistent with your interior design. Don't forget the little touches. Small changes to your lanai can have a big impact.

Here are five ideas for making the most of your lanai:

Turn it into a breakfast nook.

Get out and enjoy your lanai during the coolest part of the day! Turn your lanai into a breakfast nook,   place a plush rug under a seating area and add some decorative elements.

Go green.

Incorporate greenery, by not only selecting some design elements that have hints of this color, but by incorporating lots and lots of live plants. Trees, air purifiers, ivy, vines, roses, orchids… The more greenery on your lanai, the better!

Consider some upgrades.

Stucco walls and vinyl siding are fine, but if you really want to turn into something special, consider upgrading to a type of material that suits your home’s aesthetic. Rejuvenating the color can also do wonders and go a long way toward making your lanai your own. You could also opt to have the walls removed entirely, turning your open air patio into a veranda. If inclement weather or fear of pests makes the thought of taking away the walls unsavory, then consider upgrading the ceiling with some lazy leaf fans, or other stylistic elements, that will help to move the air throughout the space.

Think thematically.

Turn your lanai into an at-home version of your dream vacation destination, with vibrant colors and natural, organic elements like driftwood or shells. Make your lanai slice of paradise right in your backyard.
