Advice needed on patio cushion colors and coordinating umbrella & rug!

letsgo716
hace 5 años
I just purchased a new patio set for my roof deck! The set comes with two fabric options:

Sunbrella Canvas Navy
Sunbrella Spectrum Dove

I am partial to the navy but have concerns around heat retention and showing dust/dirt. The spectrum dove color is far more neutral and will not retain heat as much.

If I go with the navy - what color umbrella do you recommend? (Dove? Other bright color? Orange?)

If I go with the dove - what color umbrella do you recommend? (Navy?)

Appreciate any advice and insight you might have! Really struggling with the cushion options right now.

Thanks

    Close the umbrella when not in use, make sure it’s vented & with a heavy base. I have two on my elevated patio facing the ocean, no problems even with sometimes very heavy winds, but mine are closed when not in use & I certainly don’t sit outside under them during a windstorm :). And if you’re concerned about dirt, get an umbrella cover. Mine are left uncovered since they’re in use year around, there is no “season” for using them.

      What is your climate like? I like both but the navy will absorb heat. That’s the only two choices? For myself, I would choose the light, I like how it looks with the “wicker “ color. Just a matter of personal preference. I would prefer something in more of a midtone. Whichever you choose, I would go with the light umbrella, it will show less dust. Been there, done that. Sunbrella fabric holds up very well, warranteed against fading for some years...

      umbrella on roof deck... what could go wrong?

      my daughter has a 7th and 8th floor terrace and balcony on comm ave... its pretty breezy. even without an umbrella actually tipping or going over the edge... a flapping umbrella can be annoying.

      Really it will be airborne in the first wind storm . I would do the navy the white will be filty by the end of the season. Could you post a couple of pics of the whole deck and how it sits with the house you might be able to do an awning that attaches to the house.

      I would definitely go navy with the cushions and umbrella to hide dirt, and then add some lighter pillows for contrast.

      Very nice set! If you don't want to be limited to the 2 color options, we offer custom cushions and covers in thousands of Sunbrella fabrics for a truly custom look.
