Create the Ultimate Summer Patio in Vietnam with Custom Outdoor Furniture, Sisal Rugs, and Durable Decor from Nest Living- From the NEST ladies, with love 💛
Summer is finally here — and let’s be real, the air is (thankfully) slightly less thick with motorbike exhaust and burning rice husks. It’s time to reclaim your outdoor space, whether that’s a sweet little balcony, a leafy courtyard, or a rooftop with views and questionable railings.
We’ve gathered our top patio styling tips for living your best sun-drenched life in Vietnam — while dodging the tragic tale of “cute chairs that died after one thunderstorm.” Yes, we’ve seen it. We’ve lived it. Let’s not do that again.
1. Start with the Rug, Darling
We know… Vietnam and rugs? In this humidity? But trust us — an outdoor sisal rug from NEST is the game-changer. It defines your space, gives your feet a moment, and makes even a plastic chair feel like part of a “look.” Plus, ours are made for the tropics. Durable, breathable, wipeable. You’ll thank us later.
2. Don’t Go Cheap on Furniture. Seriously.
That TikTok lounge chair might look like a dream now, but give it 10 days of Hanoi sun and one surprise afternoon monsoon and… RIP.
Outdoor furniture in Vietnam needs to be tough. Enter our new patio furniture catalog: beautiful, built-to-last pieces made for the tropics. Solid wood, all-weather wicker, comfy cushions, and that cool, calm aesthetic we all crave. Browse online or book a showroom visit — our NEST stylists will help you choose your forever pieces.
Want a bamboo option? We also love Casa Maison’s durable bamboo chairs — they pair beautifully with our tables and sisal rugs.
3. Pop Over to JYSK (But Only for This One Thing)
If you need a decent umbrella on a budget, we won’t gatekeep — JYSK has great basics. Just don’t forget the base! And when you’re ready for an umbrella that’ll actually survive a season or two, come back to us. Ours are 3x3m, come in chic colors, and include the base — 5.8mil all in.
4. Throw Pillows Are Personality
Weather-resistant, washable, and full of charm. Our custom outdoor cushions are the easiest way to add a pop of color or lean into a vibe (tropical glam? Hanoi chic? French villa in Tay Ho?). Bonus: they make wooden chairs way more comfortable.
5. Layer the Lighting
Solar-powered string lights? Yes please. A few well-placed lanterns? Mood. Citronella candles? Double win — ambiance and mosquito repellent. Light is everything when golden hour hits.
6. Plants, Plants, and More Plants
No patio is complete without a little green. Whether you’re a plant mama or a serial neglecter, we’ve got options — low-maintenance leafy babies that thrive in the Vietnamese climate. Just say the word and our team can help pot and place for max impact.
7. Mix and Match Materials
Rattan, bamboo, terrazzo, teak, canvas, linen — let’s layer it up. Outdoor spaces are the perfect place to experiment. Let’s be honest, anything feels better under a palm tree.
8. Use Your Walls
Got a balcony with a bare wall? Hang mirrors. Try macramé. Drape a woven wall piece. Even a vertical garden (or faux ivy if you can’t commit). Make it a backdrop worthy of your iced coconut coffee selfies.
9. Storage Ottomans Are a Vibe
Functional and fabulous. Keep your cushions, candles, or kid chaos out of sight. Ours come in colors and materials that blend right into your aesthetic.
10. Let Us Help You Pull It All Together
We get it — life is busy, and who has time to piece together a Pinterest patio on their own? That’s why our in-home stylist service is made for you. We’ll pop by, bring samples, and give you a tailored quote on the spot. Easy, breezy, beautiful outdoor living.
