CITY VERSUS SEA – OUTDOOR LIVING ROOMS

Sea – A stunning outdoor living room on a deck overlooking the ocean! (above)

Summer…all I can think of is outdoor decor really. I love a beautiful outdoor space. Nothing like enjoying the outdoors with the comforts and design touches that we use inside our homes.

I like these two outdoor living spaces. One with a decidedly international flair and a striking ocean view and the other sits in a more controlled environment inside an elegant city brick wall townhouse courtyard. I like both for different reasons.

Which do you prefer…sea or city outdoor living room?

I know I should chose the “sea” outdoor room for the views alone…but I think I might like the “city” look. Not sure though. Reason I chose the city is because I feel like this is a look that I could realistically have at some point. Realistic dreaming perhaps?

You? Which do you prefer? Weigh in please in the comments below.

Happy Tuesday!

    Coco I would absolutely take the ocean view! I love the intimacy of the City Look, so if one could accomplish that and have a killer view….

    I adore the design of the City look; but as a Pisces, I am destined to go with the ocean view every time.

    I love the city look because that is the look I am trying to achieve with my Boston oasis!
