"The view is awesome. To the left is a great view of the city and to the right is Stone Mountain," says interior designer Lindsay Pumpa, who furnished the outdoor lounge area with an all-weather sofa, marble coffee table and modern accent chairs.

Tasteful seating surrounds the coffee table to facilitate easy conversation. A water-resistant teak chair follows the sleek lines of this home's modern style, while the plush armchair and sofa combine comfort and style in seamless form.

Houseplants are an easy way to enjoy nature while adding color and texture to any space. And with this lovely plant, there's no reason to fret about extended vacations. Despite the realistic look, the grasses are artificial.

The simple dining table features a round glass top and white base. Stackable chairs continue the casual appeal of the outdoor setting.
