A sunroom addition to your home is similar to a mix between a backyard patio and a living room. The best sunroom designs bring the outside in and allow you to enjoy the outdoor feel anytime of year.Below are some of out favorite sunroom ideas including different types of furniture, windows, paint colors and decor.

In the picture above, the sun room’s walls are almost all-glass, giving an impression that the room is actually open and not enclosed. Seemingly surrounded by trees and lawn, the sun room also makes use of outdoor-appropriate furniture to complete the feel. It has a set of sofa, 2 armchairs and 1 stool made of rattan in a dark wengue finish and a bamboo coffee table painted in a light emerald green color complementing the paneling on the ceiling.



Large windows are one of the most important features and there are many different types, materials, and quality to choose from. Choices include single-pane, double-pane insulated, Comfort Gard, Azuria (blue glass tint), bronze glass tint and many other styles can let you truly bring the outside in where you can appreciate it.

Windows should also be equipped with screens to maximize air flow, and keep out insects. A popular choice is aluminum screen rolling panels that allow one to easily create a screened-in porch feel and enjoy the outdoor environment. Along with screens, polypropylene weather stripping is an important addition that will help keep out moisture and provide draft protection.

Popular choices for floors are ceramic tiles because they don’t fade in sunlight and are easy to clean, weatherproof carpet, and natural hardwood floors.

Window coverings can cut down and control sunlight glare, provide privacy, help maintain a cooler temperature, cut air-conditioning cost, and improve the energy efficiency of the space. Some top choices are wood & bamboo blinds, honeycomb or pleated/cellular shades, and custom shades for covering unusually shaped windows and skylights.

Fans can allow air circulation by creating a gentle breeze and reduce the need to run an air conditioner when it is warm. When it is colder they can also help by circulating warm air from the ceiling down to where you are sitting.

Many sunrooms opt for a traditional wood roof which is low maintenance and attractive. Other popular choices are sloped or gabled all-glass ceilings, sloped/gabled insulated panels, and patented glass panels to allow in even more sunlight.
