Article’s New Outdoor Collection Looks Straight Out of a Design Magazine — Here’s What We’d Buy

This isn’t your grandma’s wicker furniture — the Willa chair is made of heavy-duty resin wicker that’s way more durable than natural wicker. So you get a similar boho effect, but in a more modern, curved silhouette that’s made to last — rain or shine.

The Elise storage coffee table is the epitome of casual coastal style with its slatted silhouette and soft, rounded corners. It’s also extremely convenient, because its 34.75-inch-wide tabletop lifts up to reveal ample interior storage for pillows, games, and more.

Between the chic ivory (weather-resistant!) cushions and the modern acacia wood base, the Lubek sectional is giving me five-star resort energy. The low-profile silhouette gives it a relaxed appearance that’s made for easy spring and summer living. It comes in a 50-inch-wide loveseat model that’s a great fit for smaller outdoor spaces, too.

Mark my words: Powder blue will be everywhere this season. The Anders table is an easy way to dip your toe in the trend. Its stylish pedestal silhouette gives it a funky edge, while the tabletop cut-outs allow for proper drainage on rainy days.

A grown-up take on the checkerboard trend, the Mira rug will anchor any outdoor space with its bold, brown checkered motif. The low-pile rug is made of 100% polyester, which makes it stain-resistant and resilient enough for life inside and outdoors, and gives it a softer feel underfoot compared to natural fiber outdoor rugs that can feel rough and scratchy.

Don’t have the space for a three-seat sofa? Consider the Sarek loveseat. The mint green color won me over right away, and the sofa’s glossy steel frame and pillowy cushions create a cool tactile contrast. Even better, it’s made using Sunbrella® fabric (the most weather- and UV-resistant fabric around!), so you don't have to worry about the color fading over time.

Hosting a get-together calls for a dining set worth gathering around. The Sarek set’s stylish striped design and bench seating invite guests to join in (and will most definitely lead to many compliments). It features a soft, curved silhouette that, combined with the solid steel material, looks like a designer piece! This set seats up to six people, but Article has a smaller 35.5-inch-wide size that’ll accommodate two to four.

Article’s first steel bistro table, the Nina table is perfect for small balconies or patios. It features a simple, foldable silhouette for easy storage during the off-season, and comes in two gorgeous colors: Ochre brown and Khaki green. Pair it with the matching folding chairs, and you’re ready to enjoy morning coffees outside!

If sunbathing is on the agenda this spring, you need the Tola chaise lounge. Its 78-inch-long silhouette provides plenty of room to stretch out in comfort, complete with an adjustable back. It’s made using Textilene, a durable, outdoor-friendly material that’s totally waterproof and non-absorbent, but has a softer, more fabric-like feel. So you can go from pool to lounging and back again.

No outdoor living space is complete without cute cushions, and the Orvo outdoor pillow is the perfect decorative touch. It has a bit of an antique vibe with its block-print-inspired pattern, but it’s made for modern-day living with its stain-resistant and machine-washable zip-up cover. I think I need one for my indoor sofa, too!
