The Copper Argument for the Outdoor Lounge Area

The outdoor lounge area is the outdoor room where the homeowner spends the most time — and the copper panel is the surface that makes the time spent there feel as considered as the indoor rooms it mirrors.

Copper is warm. The warm tone of copper makes the outdoor lounge area feel as considered as the indoor living room it mirrors — the material that bridges the indoor and the outdoor, the warm metal in the outdoor room. The copper panel in an outdoor lounge area does not just decorate the wall. It changes the atmosphere of the entire space — the outdoor room that was pleasant becomes considered, the outdoor space that was functional becomes designed.

Copper is durable. The outdoor lounge area is a fully exposed outdoor environment — the direct sun, the rain, the frost, the seasonal temperature changes. The UV-resistant, weather-resistant outdoor lacquer finish on Natuross outdoor copper panels resists the full outdoor exposure of the lounge area environment.

Copper develops a natural patina outdoors. The outdoor environment of the lounge area accelerates the natural patina development of copper — the surface becoming more beautiful over time, the installation aging with the outdoor living space it inhabits.


Feature Wall Ideas

Outdoor Lounge Feature Wall Panel The copper panel on the primary wall of the outdoor lounge area — the wall the seating faces, the surface that defines the character of the entire outdoor living space.

The outdoor lounge feature wall in copper is the installation that makes the outdoor living space feel as considered as the indoor living room it mirrors. A large-format botanical composition — the leaf, the branch, the vine, the flower — rendered in deep copper relief, the natural world of the outdoor living space made permanent in copper. A celestial composition — the moon, the stars — the sky above the outdoor lounge rendered in copper. A classical composition — the urn, the column, the architectural fragment — the classical outdoor room tradition rendered in copper. The family name in bold copper letterforms — the outdoor lounge named for the family that uses it. A geometric composition — the grid, the diamond, the chevron — the language of the contemporary outdoor living space rendered in copper. A simple hammered texture in a warm finish — the copper speaking through the material alone, the outdoor lounge as a warm, considered surface that makes the outdoor living space feel as designed as the indoor home.

"The botanical feature wall panel and the family name sign changed the entire outdoor lounge area. Every evening outside, every gathering with friends, the copper makes the outdoor living space feel as considered as the indoor rooms it mirrors — the warm metal in the evening light, the hammered surface alive with the last of the day. The outdoor lounge went from a seating area in the garden to the room the family uses most. The copper made it feel like home." — Natuross customer
