With Chicago’s biting winter behind
us, it is time to start thinking about
spring. What better way to celebrate
the warm weather’s return than with
an updated outdoor living space?
The latest design trends make it
easy to bring all the style from the
inside of your home outdoors.

The Original. The Best.
An area of design that is seeing an increase in green
technology is hardscaping. Unilock, a premier
manufacturer of paving stones and retaining walls,
has introduced several new eco-friendly products.
Weber-Stephen Products Co.’s S-670 grill in stainless steel is seen here on Unilock’s
permeable paving. These eco-friendly pavers allow natural draining so the water
returns to the earth, instead of creating runoff like a regular street surface.
It’s not just about outdoor living.
It’s about truly living. Outdoors.
Adams and her team work to
create five distinct spaces within
the outdoor room: an entry point,
a conversation area, a dining area,
a kitchen, and a sunbathing area.

3TIPS FROM
THE EXPERTS
how to design your own
outdoor rooM
Mix it up Feel free to mix and match.
Put woven chairs with a teak table, or a
contemporary aluminum and teak lounge
chair with an antique stone statue—the
result is fresh, eclectic, and fun.
– Jennifer Mulholland, RockWood Furniture
Ebel’s Beaumont Chat Group features
smooth curves and clean lines that are
a perfect frame for the bold black and
white pattern.
Vintage is back Adaptations of vintage
colors are a huge trend right now, like
greens from the 1950s and 1960s, but with
an added twist of metallic to make them
more modern.
– Steve Elton, Brown Jordan
bring the indoors outdoors Using
accents of stainless steel and natural stone
allow designers and homeowners to extend
themes from the interior right out to their
outdoor living spaces.
– Ramsey Prince, Ebel, Inc.
know your grill before you buy A
well-built grill will feel solid and sturdy;
a poorly made grill will wiggle. If a grill isn’t
solid on the sales floor, chances are it
won’t be on your patio or deck either. The
legs should be sturdy, wheels should
roll easily, and the grill should display a
good fit and finish.
This rug from CMI is made of 100 percent Sunbrella fiber. The
collection features five patterns and a palette of 12 colors.
– Brooke Jones, Weber-Stephen Products Co.
pair your paVers Look for compatibility
in texture and color when choosing paving
stones. This way you can mix and match
products, textures, and colors to come
up with a design that is truly unique and
truly yours.
– Kacy Irwin, Unilock
accessorize Use a rug as a focal point
of any outdoor space by choosing vibrant
and bold colors and designs. You can
also position the rug at a not-so-typical
angle to draw even more attention to it.
– Lynne Minchello, Colonial Mills, Inc.

TREEcago
rooted in the coMMunity
Just as Chicagoans are spending more
time beautifying their patios, porches, and
rooftop spaces, Chicago Gateway Green is
dedicated to greening and beautifying the
expressways, gateways, and neighborhoods
of Chicago. The plantings improve the
environment and quality of life for millions
of residents and visitors.
Chicago Gateway Green’s latest initiative
is called TREEcago. The program invites
Chicagoans to sponsor the planting and
maintenance of trees in the city. The Webbased donation program will eventually
feature online interactive tools that will
allow site visitors to see the location of
trees and the growth of the program. There
are several donation levels available ($25,
$75, $150, and $300) for individuals
to select, as well as repeat giving and
“family tree” options.
“There are so many benefits for both the
environment and the community with the
TREEcago program,” says Vince Pagone,
managing director at Chicago Gateway
Green. “By giving individuals a chance to
have hands-on participation in changing
the environment where they live, we are
allowing them to take part in the transformation of their communities.”
Beginning last year, Chicago Gateway Green,
along with the active support of the City
of Chicago and Mayor Daley, began
to lead large-scale plantings throughout
the city. The TREEcago program targets
areas including transportation corridors,
with a focus on the South Side around the
Dan Ryan and Bishop Ford Expressways, as
well as key communities throughout the city.
Planning is coordinated to support the goals
of the City of Chicago’s Climate Action Plan.

Green and the TREEcago
