Every apartment at One 51 Place comes equipped with a spacious patio that is perfect for enjoying the beautiful Florida weather we experience year-round. A patio can be a quiet, restful area to enjoy a meal with a loved one, have coffee on a lazy weekend morning, take a nap, or start your own garden. As long as it’s kept neat and clean, a patio’s living space can be used in many different ways.

There are many ways you can decorate your patio at your Alachua, Florida apartment, such as adding:

• Patio furniture – Keep it classic and simple, so moving around won’t be difficult and your patio won’t feel too cluttered. If you want a place to eat meals or wake up slowly with your coffee, a table and set of chairs is a good option. But if you’re looking for a place to lounge after a long day of work, choose something more suited to that, such as an Adirondack chair or chaise lounge.

• Potted plants – If you have a green thumb, you may want to add a selection of potted plants around your patio, either hanging or on a table, to bring life and color to your space. If you do end up starting a small garden on your patio, remember to be mindful of messes that can occur from spilling soil and water and keep the area clean.

• Rugs – One easy way to bring color to your patio is by adding a rug. It can add a pop of color to your space, and you can find many options at any home decorating or major retail store.
