As I mentioned on Friday, one of my favorite things when the weather gets warm is sharing meals outdoors with family and friends, and of that I am quite certain. When it comes to deciding what type of outdoor dining space I most want to live with, however, as with much of design, I am always torn since there are so many styles I adore.
I love the natural and clean-look of these first three spaces, but I must admit, for me, the setting of each is part of the draw; I would happily step into each photo to drink in the scenic views.


Stay tuned for more outdoor dining spaces, including garden settings as well as eclectic mixes, as I continue this look at alfresco dining areas and things to love about summer.
