Neutral Modern Provencal Outdoor Space

I love our outdoor space in our courtyard. It was one of the very first spaces I did when we moved in because I just wanted to sit out here and listen to the fountain and soak up every ounce of this area. After 3 years, our beautiful white outdoor rug had seen it’s last days and it’s time for a little clean up out here before a big photoshoot I have coming up! After a failed new outdoor rug, I ended up bringing our outdoor rug from the backyard into the courtyard and I think it was meant for this space all along. I wanted to share some updated photos of our neutral modern provencal outdoor space.

Besides fun holiday decor, this is probably my favorite I’ve ever styled this space. It’s super simple, clean and a little more modern and sophisticated. I think it’s a good balance with the more traditional European architecture.

Doesn’t this neutral outdoor rug look so good in here? 3 years in and this one still looks perfect. I have always a bench in this spot between the sofas. I’ve had this set of concrete stump stools up until this point but in the back of my mind I wanted something different if I ever found the right piece. This RH bench was in our entry, it’s not outdoor friendly, but I’m going to keep it here for a bit until I can find something else. I feel like it adds more seating and gives it a more polished look.

Someone asked me the other day if we sit out here all the time. I wish I could say yet. I feel like I pop out here in the mornings between carpool duties while drinking coffee, we also do a few family fire nights in the fall with s’mores. I think it’s most often used when we have guests staying in the casita.

Neutral Outdoor Furniture

I absolutely love these copper lanterns. They work year round, have such a pretty tone to them and hold up extremely well. Our outdoor furniture is all from POLYWOOD, this is in the “vintage sahara” color which is my favorite that they make.

I snagged this large wooden bowl at HomeGoods this week and love how sleek and organic it looks in here. I found a similar one here for you!

Watch until you see it all lit up at the end!!! I Watch until you see it all lit up at the end!!! I add a little bit more decor every year and this year all my new Halloween finds are from @grandinroad ! The fun witch legs are my favorite, but I actually love the little skull wreaths so much too. Wait, the light up spider webs on the trees are also the perfect addition. I have to say, this year’s decor definitely takes the win! Almost time for trick or treaters!

Exterior Update! It’s been a long time coming! W Exterior Update! It’s been a long time coming! We had these custom gas copper lanterns made by @bevolo to bring the perfect blend of timeless craftsmanship and character to our beautiful stone and brick exterior. 🤎 they are exactly what we envisioned! STUNNING. From the custom design to the warm, flickering glow after dark, every detail works together to create a look that feels both elevated and inviting. 

We couldn’t be happier with how our custom lanterns turned out. They bring the perfect finish touches to our exterior. My favorite part of our house just got even better. The happiness I feel every time I see them flickering in the night ❤️
