1. This Gwapa outdoor dining chair designed by Marcel Wanders for Moooi ( Klaus by Nienkamper , 300 King East, 416-362-3434, $604) is so easy on the eyes you’ll want to add it to you indoor decor.
2. Toss out last summer’s ugly white plastic seating. Inexpensive got a makeover, and this handsome stacking resin chair ( Canadian Tire , check www.canadiantire.ca for locations, $21.99) is it’s new face.
3. Inject some non-botanical colour into your garden with this bright pink folding bistro chair ( Caban , 262 Queen West, 416-596-0386, $49.99).
4. Move over, teak, there’s a new long-lasting wood on the outdoor furniture scene. Eucalyptus, seen here in a folding chair, is less expensive and boasts a decade-long lifespan ( Moss , 544 Danforth, 416-462-9898, $119).
5. Call it the Rolls Royce of patio chairs. This graphite swivel rocker ( Indoors & Out , 2045 Yonge, 416-489-7553, $1,000) is such a sweet all-weather ride, the price tag is almost justified.
