Spring, summer and fall; no matter which season you love the most, it definitely is the time of the year when you can shed the winter coats and bask on the pool deck or balcony as you enjoy the landscape outside. Many of you might already be looking forward to an awesome summer where lazy weekends are spent with family and friends and barbeque parties go well into the latter half of fall. The DIY modular outdoor seating idea that we have today is ideal for everyone who loves this season of festivities!
We discovered this awesome modular outdoor seating project on Shanty 2 Chic and it definitely is one of the easier DIY seating ideas you will ever come across. The beauty of these cool outdoor seats lies in their ability to adapt to your necessity and the space available on your porch or balcony. At its heart, the seating system is basically a wooden box with back support with cushions. Yet, the design is incredibly effective and functional.
The projects requires cedar boards (or you can use even reclaimed wood that will take the wear and tear of the outdoors), a few plush cushions and some basic woodworking tools. You start off by building the cedar boxes for the base of the seating and then the backrest for the seats. By not adding the backrest, you can use the seats as simple ottomans as well.
By rearranging these individual box-like units, you can easily alter the outdoor seating plan and even remove some unnecessary units when trying to create greater deck space. Perfect outdoor DIY solution for those who demand flexibility!
