Whether your patio or deck is a personal hideaway or the neighborhood party spot, these creative benches will help define the borders of your outdoor rooms and provide comfortable seating.
L-Shape Bench
Outdoor benches like this one provide plenty of seating for al fresco entertaining. Built around an established fir tree, it contributes to the structure’s clean, angular sensibility—and the linear slats quickly disperse rain.

Curved Bench
A curved rail and cantilevered bench wrap around this deck, creating a pleasing addition to the rectangular backyard.

Garden Seating
Two built-in wood benches provide the perfect spot for enjoying the lush garden that crowns this courtyard. A fan on a cantilevered beam cools the seating area on hot summer days.
