12 Awesome Outdoor Dining Ideas
By Decoholic on Apr 28, 2013
Designer Jamie Durie framed this outdoor dining room by incorporating a large backyard pine tree into a stone wall. The benches are made of simple fallen tree trunks, an easy, inexpensive way to create gorgeous outdoor seating. Author, television host and environmentalist, Jamie Durie pioneered the idea of outdoor rooms in his native Australia. Durie’s love of nature guides him in creating outdoor living spaces that expand homes to the outdoors. Trained as a Climate Project Presenter (with former Vice President Al Gore), Durie lectures about environmentalism around the world. He designed this outdoor space for a Wyoming family. His book, JamieDurie’s The Outdoor Room, is available at jamiedurie.com.
All the furniture in this backyard are created from fallen trees from the nearby forest, hand-carved to bring more comfort. With the rustic decorations, a person feels like the time has been frozen for a century or two.

Designed by none other than Jonathan Adler, the garden of Nanette Lepore’s West Village Victorian townhouse is the ideal landscape with plenty of seating, lots of greenery, and flashes of color.
Designer Kathryn Ireland converted an old barn at her farmhouse near Toulouse into a rustic open-air dining room. It looks straight out of the movies, doesn’t it?
