With January and February behind us, we are gearing up for the 2017 patio season. As it quickly approaches, it is time to investigate some of the color trends to help you prepare for the upcoming season. Check out our top three color predictions that should be making their way into your backyard this patio season.

Mushroom
Mushroom has been deemed the next “it” neutral. Only time will tell if this is true but we have to say we absolutely love this color. Why do we love it? It is versatile, warm, and can coordinate well with other pieces already in your backyard or patio. It would look great in any outdoor space whether you want it for your cushions, umbrella canopy, or throw pillows. It can be used to create a subtle contrast between this Mushroom color and an off white color. For accents try an orange color like Tuscan or Rust or even a deep blue color like Indigo.

Greenery
The first color that caught our eye this year was Greenery. As you may know, Pantone has predicted greenery to be the color of the year. Whether you believe this to be true, there is no denying that this color is everywhere. We have to say this acidic apple green, which is sophisticated but not too serious, is growing on us. Unlike other green colors, it can help add some fun to your backyard or patio without looking childish. If you love this color like the rest of us, we suggest incorporating Sunbrella’s Macaw fabric into your outdoor space. This fabric can be used with a striped fabric like Seville Seaside or a more neutral color like Natural.

Taupe
The last big color trend of 2017 is predicted to be Taupe. It is a warmer color than we have seen in the last few years due to the popularity of gray. Many describe Taupe as a color that has elements of both brown and gray. By moving away from the color gray, can help create a beautiful change to your backyard or patio. Taupe can be used with our patterned and striped fabric such as the new Integrated Pewter fabric and one of our more established fabrics Milano Char.

We don’t know about you, but these colors have us excited for the 2017 patio season. If you are interested in one of the above fabric colors for your patio furniture we suggest visiting one of our local dealers and shop CABANACOAST today!
