To coordinate with the classy dining space adjacent to the sun room, designer Deborah Bettcher got rid of this sun room's out-of-date wicker furnishings and kicked up the style by adding bright colors, fun patterns, comfy furnishings and a style that reflects the home's beautiful interior. The club chairs, which feature a unique open pattern, were selected since they offer extra seating with minimal obstruction of the view.

“Since the homeowner is a talented artist and potter, I desperately wanted to find a dramatic sculpture to accent the corner,” says Deborah. “Finally, I found this life-sized antique Italian terracotta lady. While carrying her in, however, we dropped her, and she broke into seven ugly pieces on the driveway. I was devastated. I repaired her and applied a veil of wash to soften the flaws. It turned out that her imperfections made her even more charming!”

Oftentimes, outdoor rooms are a great place to experiment with color and fun accessories. Colorful statues and adorable sculptures look right at home in this bright, eclectic sun room. The drapery tie backs, which are made of strips of birch bark, are a lovely way to bring nature into the space.
