What Tropical style is

Tropical style brings the resort home: rattan and bamboo furniture, palm and banana-leaf greenery, bright or botanical-print cushions, lanterns, and a hammock if there is room. It is the most cheerful outdoor look and also works in sunrooms and bedrooms.

Colors and materials

Palette: Deep green, white, sand, and pops of coral, turquoise, or citrus yellow.

Materials: Rattan, bamboo, teak, cane, cotton and botanical-print fabrics, woven lanterns, and lots of live or faux palms.

The 5 pieces that make the look

1. A rattan or bamboo lounge set
2. Botanical-print outdoor cushions and pillows
3. Large palms or bird-of-paradise in woven planters
4. A hammock or egg chair
5. Woven lanterns and string lights

Tick these in the Must include list when you design and the shopping list is built around them, with Amazon listings for each, priced to your budget.

Mistakes to avoid

• Flamingos and tiki props. Plants and print are the theme.
• Indoor rattan outdoors — check for all-weather materials.
• No shade; a sail or thatch-look umbrella finishes it.

What it costs on Amazon

Low to mid: $600–$1,800 for a patio or sunroom; a hammock, two planters with palms, and cushions alone are $250–$500.
