Take one Michael Young (UK designer) Tolt Outdoor table fashioned from robinia wood with a Corian top (specify rounded or rectangular); set includes table and two benches; $4,193 at unicahome.com

Suspend this stainless steel and wicker egg chair by Nanna Ditzel from a nearby tree branch; $2,984 at unicahome.com

Pair this weather-resistant Tatu wire table by Stephen Burks for Artecnica (produced by South African artisans) for $400 from unicahome.com:

With Anthropologie’s Havana daybed made from woven poly-ash synthetic with cushion and throw pillows; $1,998 at anthropologie.com:

Nearby, casually position a beech or teak rocking recliner from New Zealand designer David Trubridge (contact Minima Design for price and shipping information; minimadesign.com):

Provide nighttime illumination with this red lantern and stand for $150 from conranus.com:

Finally, two great foldable pieces from Brooklyn-based designer Robert Martin; go to robertmartindesigns.com for ordering information:
