What Furniture Design Costs
Outdoor furniture design in the North Metro Atlanta area generally runs $30,000 to $100,000 or more, depending on how many areas you are furnishing, the quality of the pieces, and how much is custom. Furniture is what turns a finished hardscape into a space people actually live in, and it is the layer most often rushed or skipped after a large build.
What drives the cost
Furniture design is priced by how much of the space you are furnishing, the quality of the pieces, and how much is built rather than bought.
Number of areas
A single lounge or dining setting is a different scope from furnishing a whole backyard: dining, lounge, poolside, fireside, and bar areas each need their own pieces.
Quality and materials
Teak, powder-coated aluminum, woven rope, and designer pieces last and look far better outdoors than entry-level furniture, and they are priced accordingly.
Custom and built-in
Built-in seating, custom tables, and stone-integrated pieces are fabricated to the space rather than bought off a floor, which adds cost and a tailored fit.
Fabrics and cushions
Performance fabrics that hold up to sun and weather, in the volume a full backyard needs, are a real line item and a frequent place corners get cut.
Shade and accessories
Umbrellas, pergola shades, outdoor rugs, lighting accents, and planters complete the setting and add to the total.
Design and sourcing
Selecting, specifying, and coordinating pieces that work together and suit the architecture is the design work that keeps a space from looking like a showroom floor.
Where each project lands
Typical ranges in North Metro Atlanta. The number of areas and how much is custom move where you land.
Furniture completes the architecture
A great deal of money goes into the stone, the structures, and the planting, and then furniture is often treated as an afterthought, bought in a rush from a big-box store. The result is a beautiful space that feels unfinished. Furniture is the layer people actually touch and live in, and when it is designed alongside the architecture rather than after it, the whole space finally reads as one intention. We design the furnishings to suit the stone, the scale, and the way you will use each area.
Designed with the build, not after it
Because we design the hardscape and the furnishings together, the proportions, the materials, and even built-in stone seating are planned as one. The furniture belongs to the space instead of sitting on top of it.
How long it takes
Lead times matter more than install time.
Furniture installs quickly once it arrives, but quality and custom pieces carry lead times of weeks to months from order to delivery. Custom and built-in work is fabricated alongside the build. We plan the furniture early, so it arrives as the space is finished rather than leaving a completed backyard empty while pieces are on backorder.
