If you enjoy the organic yet clean lines and designs found in vintage mid century patio furniture, you will easily be able to find pieces to create your backyard sanctuary. Each piece is built to withstand both time and the elements for long lasting enjoyment in the backyard.
Urban Americana offers an extensive selection of vintage outdoor furniture to meet your every dining and seating need, including full Modernist dining sets as well as individual chairs from MCM.
Sets
Create the ultimate patio experience with a set that features table and chairs in mid-century modern style. Perfect for relaxing lounge-heavy setups that double as daybeds, or hosting large gatherings for dinner parties – these complete ensembles offer all-season long entertaining potential.
An aluminum dining table and set of sling chairs can work beautifully together, playing off one another’s textures with complementary hues and designs. Woven patterns in chair fabrics create an eye-catching pattern that works beautifully when accented by seat cushions and decor; for instance, two sleek red cushions placed atop each lounge can complement perfectly with matching placemats on your metal dining table.
Mixing materials can create an eye-catching yet playful aesthetic, but it’s essential to consider the way their different finishes will withstand environmental factors such as humidity or climate. Certain climates may lead to harsh conditions for furniture such as rusting, mildewing and corrosion – in order to combat these problems make sure all pieces chosen contain weatherproof components.
Wood and metal are popular combinations when it comes to outdoor furniture, particularly industrial patios and rustic decor themes. Choose a table featuring both materials – such as one featuring metal legs with wooden top – for an elegant dining space that remains casual enough for everyday use. Aluminum/plastic blends also frequently appear, often providing sleek visual contrast against rough textures like concrete or stone tables.
Maintaining an organized patio layout makes it easy to enjoy time spent outside with family and friends. Your personal lifestyle dictates whether or not your furniture should be separated into areas dedicated to lounge seating and dining; or perhaps you like entertaining in your backyard and require more of an outdoor area for both. Whatever your personal taste, Urban Americana has pieces suitable for every need – our Long Beach vintage store carries both large sets designed to accommodate families as well as petite options suitable for small apartment balconies. Adding chic planters or carts adds the final touches needed to modern outdoor decor.
Chairs & Stools
An attractive seating area is essential in any outdoor room, be it vintage lounge chairs or modern stools – either way a quality set will enhance the overall aesthetic and comfort of your outdoor space.
As well as utilitarian and comfort features, stool style plays an integral part in its ability to complement the interior design of your home. They come crafted out of different materials ranging from leather, microfiber, vinyl or polyester. Others may feature wood construction with rubberized wood coating or even wicker; all depending on what kind of atmosphere or durability is desired in their construction.
If your taste in contemporary decor leans more minimalist, selecting a stool with a simple design and vibrant colors might be the ideal solution. TOOU offers an impressive collection of designs that balance visual appeal with robustness – using top quality materials and design philosophy for maximum impact in their selections.
If your style leans more toward traditional or rustic themes, a chair with natural wood details might make an attractive addition to your decor. Essentials for Living’s Laurel Chair is one such example that blends contemporary minimalism with rustic beauty by pairing an inviting upholstery design with just enough natural wood accents in its structure.
Seat design of stools is another crucial factor. Stools equipped with backrests and footrests offer greater comfort, making them suitable for long periods of sitting without straining your legs or being on chair legs. Furthermore, they may even work better for those who prefer having their feet resting directly on the ground rather than sitting atop a chair leg.
Bar stools are an easy and stylish way to add extra seating in your dining area or kitchen counters. West elm offers a selection of bar stools in different heights so you can select one that best matches your home layout; they’re also designed to coordinate well with most table sizes; for instance, using multiple bar stools at once could transform an otherwise tiny bistro or cafe table into an inviting dining space for hosting guests.
Planters & Carts
Add plants to your patio to add life and style. There are stylish yet sturdy mid century modern planters and carts available that you can find suitable for this task.
Planter boxes crafted from recycled plastic lumber, natural 5086 marine aluminum, slate or marble offer low-maintenance beauty and weather resistance with zero fasteners or fastenings to worry about. Their anodized aluminum legs eliminate fasteners while their design resists expansion and contraction due to wet-dry cycles which would otherwise damage wood and metal materials over time. Their design can even be pressure cleaned without leaving stains from water accumulation behind – providing pressure cleaning capabilities while the legs recessed into the side panels prevent staining caused by water accumulation stains stains accumulating there! Additionally their unique design allows for the addition of trellises, gates or screen walls to add privacy or security as well as hidden drip irrigation/drainage systems or wiring/lighting or enclosure of stereo speakers within their unique dimensions!
Restaurant Planters create intimate upscale exterior spaces with the same meticulous care as interiors. Their modular design makes them more cost-effective than stand-alone planters; leg extrusion creates a hidden structural aluminum frame to support a removable planter liner made of natural 3/4″ thick tongue-and-groove solid tropical hardwood or no maintenance recycled plastic lumber; an air gap prevents solar gain that heats roots; plus it hides irrigation and drainage systems within.
Material carts are an ideal solution for restaurants and other commercial settings, providing ergonomic improvement while enabling one employee to safely maneuver large, heavy planters at scale with one movement. Crafted for maximum durability with fork pockets to allow material handling equipment such as pallet jacks to move them safely at scale, these sturdy carts make life easier!
Urban Americana provides an impressive selection of mid century modern patio furniture sets to complete your outdoor room, perfect for seating families and frequent entertainers. Plus, individual chairs and tables add modern style into your outdoor area.
