Real Estate Advertorial t& Make outdoor living comfortable SSS* and fashionable with furnit a ories that feature natural materials. Boho chic, natural and retro trends Spurred by the pandemic, outdoor living con- tinues to be all the rage across Canada. Whether youte looking for a complete makeover or a simple backyard refresh, this year's outdoor living trends are sure to bring a breath of fresh air to your home's exterior, no matter what the size of your property or budget. “This summer's outdoor looks are all about feeling calm, soothed and uplifted — in style” said Lydia Thammavong, Head Design, Styles & Trends at leading home improvement retailer RONA in unveiling the brand's 2023 outdoor living trends. “We've made it easy for Canadians to cre- ate a relaxing outdoor oasis by selecting a range of striking, budget-friendly pieces that will leave neighbours feeling grass-green with envy” Think wood-metal combinations, nature- kissed brass, earth-shade accents, and wicker pieces adorned with textured, artistic fabrics. Thammavong divides this season's outoor liv- ing trends into three themes. Tranquil Moments, Primitive Ties and Urban Roots. Tranquil Moments: This theme combines the elegance of boho chic, seaside architecture and Japandi style with uber-lush greenery to create a dreamlike getaway, perfect for contemplation. Wicker furniture, decorative stitching and artistic plant stands round out this refined yet casual look. With its curvy oblong foliage and seaside look, the Bird of Paradise harmonizes nicely with the Tranquil Moments collection. Primitive Ties: Featuring raw materials, exotic craftsmanship and ethnic accents, Primitive Ties celebrates eclecticism, cultural diversity and art, while delivering an enveloping, cozy atmosphere that radiates nature's beauty. Looks such as metal and wood accessories, warm earth shades embed- ded in natural materials, and dark floral motifs round out this theme. Cacti complement an exotic decor such as the Primitive Ties collection. And since they require little maintenance, you can spend more time enjoying the outdoors. Urban Roots: Combining clean-lined metal- lic and wood materials, elevated with brilliantly- coloured accessories, this theme is an ode to modern and industrial Scandinavian styles, with strong retro, biophilic influences. It is reminiscent of a city’s vibrancy, while integrating functionality, minimalism and ergonomics. A beautiful tricolor plant fits perfectly with a colourful, distinctive decor such as the Urban Roots collection. “Whatever your preference, this season's out- door living options will remind you how great it feels to get out of the house” Thammavong said. “Infused with even a few of this year’s hottest decor items, your backyard may just become your favourite spot” For more information about 2023 outdoor living trends and to locate a RONA store near you, visit www.rona.ca. nko.realtor Anita Sullivan Broker )5-466-4900 Matt Sullivan Sales Representative Anthony Danko Sales Representative 289-772-8822 oH ROYAL LEPAGI cry Sales Representative 544 Stacey Robinson Broker 905-464-7653 James Stanley, Sales Representative 905-464-2640 ry bY 2 2 z = i Z a Fa 3 2 = 5 2 g 8 8 i y: 3
