Keep these design ideas in mind when planning your screened porch.
If you are looking to build a screened porch in your backyard, you have many design possibilities. You could use a screened porch to enclose a patio or deck or simply have one in the middle of your yard. What about the interior? See these screened porch design ideas you’ll love below!
Stunning Flooring
You have far many more choices with the flooring than you might think. It is a chance to get very creative; outdoor flooring can range from tiles to wood plank to synthetic flooring to outdoor carpet. You could also use an outdoor rug to add color, pattern, and texture to your flooring. If you are covering a deck or patio, you could keep the original flooring.
Creative Seating
Your seating arrangement doesn’t have to be a simple outdoor lounge set. You could incorporate plush seating that wraps around the porch, a swing seat, or both! You could also choose sculptural chairs fit for the outdoors.
Brilliant Lighting
Your lighting fixtures could make your screened porch feel like another room in the house or a fantastic semi-outdoor rec room. You could use lights that change colors, a traditional ceiling fan, a chandelier, etc.
Ceiling of Interest
As we are looking up, you could also make the ceiling quite interesting. The ceiling could have wooden beams or be plain. It could have a pop of color different from the walls; its structure could be flat, slanted, pyramidal, peaked, etc.
Dramatic Walls
Who says screened porch walls have to be white? Traditional screened porches have light-colored interior walls, but some are dark brown or black, creating a very dramatic but cozy look. If not a very dark color, you could also experiment with bright, rich colors to add a bold flair.
Decorate with a Theme
Your screened porch design ideas will ultimately boil down to the theme you are going for. Theme ideas include retro, classy, beachy, man cave, plant haven, and so much more.
