We all want to spend more time outdoors when the weather turns warm. Make it easy to get some fresh air by designing your backyard, patio, deck, or porch with indoor comforts that will make it as inviting as your living room.

Set up lounge seating, a bar cart, or a table and chairs to encourage socializing under the summer sun or stars. Give your al fresco living area the allure of an indoor space with an outdoor sofa, stylish decor accents, atmospheric lighting, and breezy curtains or a privacy screen to create a relaxing atmosphere for entertaining or unwinding.

Get ready for summer with these simple budget-friendly outdoor room ideas.
