Every summer, we enjoy observing outdoor design trends, whether that's butter yellow or pistachio green. However, in all their beauty and lightheartedness, there remains a deep appreciation for the classic color combinations, with black and white being at the top of our list. And it would appear we're in good company.
Actress Demi Moore recently shared a glimpse of a rooftop where she spent a 'cozy New York night,' and her striped black and white outdoor furniture takes center stage. Combining the two most timeless, elegant colors in design, the loungers make a classic statement without overwhelming the patio.
They also introduce a pattern while keeping things minimalist, reminding us how this color combination has the power to transcend all fleeting trends and endure for many summers to come.

The ultimate Demi Moore-approved piece: This chaise lounge chair adds a prime sunning spot poolside or on your back patio. It's made from UV- and water-resistant solid eucalyptus wood in a natural tone that works with almost any yard.
These simple yet chic outdoor throw pillows are made of durable polyester fabric and soft PP cotton. This means they're water repellent and won’t fade under the direct sunlight for over 500 hours. I also love how they're auto-locking zipper closure for a tailored look
I love the simplicity yet sheer style of this chair. The sling seat and backrest are removable for easy cleaning, plus the frame folds down for convenient storage. It's the perfect accent chair for enjoying a touch of fresh air in style.
Demi Moore sharing these black and white pieces on her Instagram is reason enough to make the investment before the summer passes. However, we are not exclusive in our adoration for this combination, especially when it comes to patio furniture.
'Timeless and effortlessly chic, black and white outdoor furniture makes a striking impact without overwhelming a space. These classic tones offer a clean and architectural edge that feels both modern and grounded,' comments Bo Hellberg, the CMO at Swedish outdoor furniture specialists Grythyttan.
We love the look of Demi's striped patterned loungers; however, you can tap into a black and white aesthetic by pairing two solidly-hued pieces together. For example, Bo recommends pairing black chairs alongside white pieces that complement the greenery of your garden and natural materials like stone.
'Pair them with matching tables for a sleek and cohesive look or mix white and black pieces for a more curated and characterful design,' Bo adds.
'Whether arranged for alfresco dining or quiet lounging, these pieces invite a considered, understated elegance into any outdoor setting.'
Will you be following Demi's lead for the remainder of the summer? The best part of this color combination is that it will impress for a long time into fall and for many years to come. It's one of the safest investments you can make.
