Meanwhile, on Remodelista: Bringing Color Outdoors

July 17, 2025

Welcome to Meanwhile, on Remodelista, in which we take a look at the goings-on over on our sibling site. In this edition: The case for bringing bold colors outside. From a classic barn-red exterior to a peacock blue lounge chair, here are some ways to make your outdoor space sing.

This is a little bit of a cheat: The bright yellow door is on the inside, but the see-through glass exterior door guarantees that the cheery color travels outdoors as well, Photograph by Gert Skærlund, from Simplicity Reigns: An Architect’s Pared-Down Summer Home in Denmark.

Writes Margot, in her story about Amanda Pays and Corbin Bersen&#8\2\17;s latest flip: &#8\2\20;The back terrace overlooks an outbuilding that the couple use as a cottage. Amanda decided to paint all three structures barn red, then wavered for a moment but is glad she stuck with her choice: &#8\2\16;It adds a very, very classic farmstead kind of feeling.&#8\2\17; &#8\2\2\1; Photograph courtesy of Amanda Pays (@amandapays) and The Lillie K. Team at Four Seasons Sotheby’s International Reality.

On the deck, overlooking an ocean of green (and the real ocean), a Nychair X-Rocking Chair by Takeshi Nii, reupholstered with Sunbrella fabric, makes a strong statement.
