A small patio can easily become overcrowded, making it harder to enjoy the space, but there are a few design tricks that can make your patio feel bigger. Working in some patio ideas and focusing on what you use the area for can help create a more relaxed, enjoyable outdoor space.
A patio can easily become cluttered with furniture so choosing the right pieces is key. 'When optimising space in (and decluttering) a small patio, a great idea is to use multipurpose furniture like a storage ottoman or daybed. Not only can you store items, but it's easier to plan efficiently with modular furniture that has a smaller footprint,' explains Nicolene Mausenbaum, director of Dezyna Interiors.
