Watch us on Indoors Out, Episode #603 featuring the “Peruvian Great Room”

On the DIY Network; Watch It Now

The DIY Network original show, Indoors Out, showcases unique home improvement projects as people transform their mundane outdoor areas into unique, well-designed outdoor rooms. The outdoor living areas, dining rooms, kitchens, and entertainment spaces add functional square footage and property value to the renovated homes.

Indoors Out hosts Dean Marsico and Derek Stearns teamed up with Maryland-based Landscape Architects Botanical Decorators to transform a small Washington D.C. patio into a Peruvian-themed Great Room. Their goal was to create a safe outdoor space suitable for children and relieve the pressure placed on the residence’s small, overcrowded kitchen.

To accommodate outdoor entertaining, Country Casual provided our Harborside Teak Extension Table. The Harborside teak dining table is uniquely designed with built-in leaves that tuck and fold beneath the table when not in use to conserve space, but can fully extend to comfortably accommodate 10 guests. The coordinating Valencia stacking chairs are a sturdy, convenient seating option that can be stacked for storage when not in use.

The Calypso Teak Sectional Seating provides a modern look and versatile modular design fits any space. These teak lounge chairs lock together easily and securely and can be paired with a corner unit or ottoman to create a wide variety of outdoor seating options. To suit this space, Country Casual provided 4 sectional armless chairs to be placed around a fire pit, and included accent pillows in vivid colors to complement the Peruvian theme.

As the summer of 2011 approached, Better Homes and Gardens style director, Stephen Perfetto, contacted Country Casual to help furnish the perfect summer-time outdoor area as part of BHG’s ‘Chill and Grill’ summer special. In collaboration with several other national retailers, Country Casual provided all the necessary elements needed to create a casual, contemporary outdoor entertaining and living area. See Full Article PDF

Country Casual provided our exclusive teak dining tables, teak coffee tables, teak bar tables, teak bar stools, and teak patio umbrellas. The Country Casual design team worked with Mr. Perfetto to showcase our Shoreham teak bar table and stools for bar seating that’s both sturdy and comfortable.

Mr. Perfetto also selected a pair of Seneca round teak coffee tables to accent the sitting areas. With rounded aprons and flared legs, these teak coffee tables are reminiscent of interior furniture and created the “interior-worthy touches” that “turn an ordinary patio into an inviting escape”.

A Country Casual exclusive teak 10 foot octagon tilting umbrella crowns the patio and provides welcome shelter. This teak umbrella with unique tilting feature provides shade throughout the day by rotating to three positions.

Article: Backyard Escapes
By: Lisa Mowry

The June 2011 issue of Southern Living featured Country Casual teak furniture as one of the elements that creates “Backyard Escapes”. This article featured three showcase homes where owners transformed their backyards into “stylish destinations for a little R&R”. The first of these homes, located in Charleston, South Carolina, is owned by interior designer Muffie Faith. Her ‘Tropical Pool House’ was inspired by a mix of the beach houses in Pawleys Island, South Carolina and the open-air cottages of Thailand. The outdoor swimming pool and pool house, surrounded by palm trees, showcases a number of Country Casual teak chaises from our Seneca collection.

Text by Mitchell Owens, Photography by Roger Davies

"Gentleman's Quarters" in the March, 2010 issue of Elle Décor magazine showcases the worldly decorating style of handmade rug importer Ben Soleimani. Soleimani, a connoisseur of fine English furniture and antique rugs, worked with interior designer Kerry Joyce to decorate his 1920’s era home.

Country Casual teak lounge seating creates an intimate conversation group underneath a grapevine covered pergola. The designer paired Seneca teak lounge chairs with Seneca 40 in. round teak coffee table for Mr. Soleimani’s brick-paved terrace. Using Country Casual teak furnishings brings a casual elegance outdoors and provides needed balance to the antique interior furnishings.
