Every successful color scheme requires a strong neutral color to ground it. Neutrals may not seem too exciting on their own but when they are paired with the right colors, they can look unbelievably beautiful. If you are looking for the perfect neutral color schemes, start with these stunning pairings. Sometimes all it takes is a little bit of inspiration to totally transform your deck into a summer-friendly hang out the whole family will enjoy.
Crisp White
White furniture is a timeless addition to any patio. This crisp neutral is the perfect backdrop for virtually every color. Sea foam is one of the trendiest colors of the season and looks perfect when paired with white wicker furniture such as this Lloyd Flanders lounge set.
Chocolate Brown
Rich, chocolate brown furniture adds an instant elegance to a deck or patio. For a new take on things, choose a chocolate brown set that has copper undertones such as this Oakland Living fire patio set with chairs. This warm hue looks great with a rust cushion and yellow accents.
Navy Blue
This colorful neutral is a trendy way to update your patio furniture. Its nautical influence means that it pairs perfectly with white, yellow, and red but that is somewhat expected. If you are looking for a different take, try starting with navy cushions or rugs and pairing them with bright orange and apple green accents. Natural elements such as this table runner are a great way to add texture as well. To get the look, start with a POLYWOOD table set.
Medium Tan
Natural wicker is a classic but these Lloyd Flanders Tobago swivel chairs bring a fresh style all their own. Crisp cream cushions are the perfect backdrop for citrus colored accents. A bright celery green, lemon yellow, or fun tangerine all look great against this neutral hue.
