European Style Outdoor Patio Ideas for Spring

March 29, 2023
  • Share

Do you ever search for a specific thing online and then somehow end up down a rabbit hole? Well…I just did that. I was looking for architectural inspiration. Specifically, beautiful greenhouse designs. I haven’t posted about a greenhouse in a while. Somehow during my search, I ended up virtually touring a London townhouse. And then a light bulb went off. I discovered incredible European-style outdoor patio designs. So today’s blog is going to be about bringing European styles to your own backyard. Spring is around the corner so why not spruce up our outdoor patios? But this time with a European twist. Check out some of my favorite European-style outdoor patio ideas below.

How To Bring European Style to Your Outdoor Patio?

Transforming your patio into a charming French garden isn’t as hard as you think. Style the patio by incorporating natural wooden furniture and natural stone. If you’re entertaining then add neutral linens and elegant white plates. Elevate your outdoor space with ceramic and stone vases full of wildflowers and a large bowl of oranges or deep purple figs. Grow lavender in pots for a heavenly scent. The key to a European-style outdoor patio is creating a warm and inviting space for friends and family to hangout.

Outdoor Lighting Ideas

Set the mood for your outdoor patio design. European-style lighting includes lanterns, string lights, glass, and curved shapes. It’s really all about the detail. Euro-style includes a more ornate design for a luxurious aesthetic. Creating a beautiful ambiance will help elevate a patio into a euro-style patio.

Outdoor Patio Chairs

Upgrading your patio chairs can make a huge difference. Unique European chairs that include wood or iron materials will create a romantic and serene space on your patio. Dress it up with whimsical flowers and a matching coffee table. Make sure to include cushions for maximum comfort. Remember this is a place you want to spend hours with friends and family. So make sure you prioritize comfort when selecting outdoor patio chairs.

French-Country Outdoor Furniture

Inspired by the traditional craftsmanship of French furniture makers, French-Country furniture has risen in popularity. People who seek out the rustic appeal and elegant charm for their outdoor space are investing in iron, wood, and wicker. These materials are perfect for creating a cozy and inviting outdoor space. Almost as if you’re in your own private French garden.

5. Intimate European Garden

A few years ago I redid my upper patio. It completely changed the way I entertain. I love sitting up there with my friends and sipping wine. It’s one of my favorite spots in my house. Or maybe it is my favorite spot! However. France is one of my favorite places in the world. I love exploring the French gardens. Nothing is more inspirational than traveling around Europe. I think I need to book a trip soon.

Xo,

Coco

Oak, travertine, and brass carry through every roo Oak, travertine, and brass carry through every room of the Grove Townhouse by Bunsa Studio. Paneled oak built-ins frame the living room, herringbone floors run into a kitchen with a marble backsplash and caned counter stools, and the terrace kitchen pairs a fluted island with terracotta tile. In the primary bath, a skylight opens over a travertine shower with twin brass rain heads, while a sculptural marble sink anchors the powder room and a paper lantern softens the kids’ room.

From an empty room to a cozy, layered living spaceFrom an empty room to a cozy, layered living space. 🤎
A little vision, a few thoughtful design choices, and the right textiles can completely change the feel of a room.
For this living room concept, we brought in the COCOCOZY Kip Rug to anchor the space and the COCOCOZY Quatrefoil Linen Pillows to add pattern, texture, and a touch of timeless charm.
We love how the warm caramel sofa, olive green accents, natural wood, and brass details come together to create a space that feels both inviting and elevated.
This is a room concept, imagined to showcase how COCOCOZY textiles and details can transform a space.
What do you think of the transformation? Would you live here? 🤎

A country contemporary farmhouse in Lincoln, MA, f A country contemporary farmhouse in Lincoln, MA, full of antiques, pattern, and natural texture. 🏡
A plaster chimney rises into the vaulted living room above a reclaimed-wood mantel. Lantern pendants and copper pots set the tone in the kitchen. The powder room goes all in on floral wallpaper and a gilt mirror. Grasscloth walls wrap a guest room with a built-in reading nook, and the bunk room is all sage beadboard and gingham. Old pieces and clean architecture work together, so the house feels collected, not decorated.

I’ve never worn a super bright red dress before. NI’ve never worn a super bright red dress before. Never mind one with the entire back out! ❤️
But something shifted for me over the last year. I let go of people, expectations, and ideas that no longer served me. And I made a decision. I’m not making myself smaller to make anyone else comfortable.
So when the fabulous @clairesulmers invited me to the first @fashionbombdaily Bomb Fashion Show in Los Angeles, I decided to show up a little differently!
Enter this fire red Jacquemus dress. 🔥
My cousin Cala and I had the BEST time. So much beautiful fashion, incredible emerging design talent, and amazing energy in one room. Congratulations to Claire and her entire team for bringing this fabulous event to LA! And kudos to @cadillac for supporting the show.
Who knew a dress could say so much without saying a word?
Here’s to being bold, daring, unapologetic, and still finding joy in every moment.
Wear the dress. Take up space. Live loud. We only get one life! ❤️
