Every season is sunroom season.

An afternoon spent on the porch is always a pleasure, but you know what might just be better? Time spent in a sunroom. Why, you might ask? For starters, sunrooms can be used year-round. Sure, we usually think of them as more spring/summer spaces, but with the right furnishings and connected heat or air conditioning, a sunroom can become a year-round retreat. We also love the protection for the elements sunrooms provide. Biting bugs getting the best of you in the summer? Head to the sunroom. Is rain pouring all the time in the spring? Storms become soothing background noise in the sunroom. Finally, you have more freedom with your furnishings in the sunroom. Since it's protected from rain and snow, nicer furniture and upholstery can be used as well as decorations that would be disturbed by wind on the porch.

Needless to say, we're big fans of sunrooms. So why not have a little bit of fun in this oft-used space? Sunrooms are the perfect space to let your design imagination run wild. Go more traditional and keep a bright and airy color palette, or take advantage of the ample sunlight and bring in moodier hues. You truly can't go wrong here. So grab your coziest throw and some comfy chairs and get ready to create the sunroom of your dreams with inspiration from the beauties below.

This 1920s sunroom at Camp Wandawega takes on new life as a sleeping porch, complete with nostalgia-rich accessories.

In the sunroom of this Wisconsin farmhouse, pretty hand-sewn pillows, including one crafted from a Wisconsin souvenir handkerchief, dress up all the chairs—including the mini rocker. Also handcrafted: the light fixture featuring a reclaimed wicker basket.

French doors, combination hand-crank and clerestory-style windows, and brick flooring give the enclosed patio in this Connecticut cottage a conservatory feel. The antique settee—which (per the dealer!) once sat in Abraham Lincoln's doctor's waiting room—was recovered in turquoise toile (Tea Party in Aquatic from Jim Thompson). White slipcovered wingback chairs offset the dramatic array of dried branches and ferns nestled in two Mexican wrought iron urns, while underneath the iron coffee table, a collection of vintage books is loosely corralled in a woven tray.

This bright space is an ode to the homeowner's love of the Adirondacks. The woven rockers are made of woven ash and yellow birch, and the 19th-century tramp art washstand is made from more than 500 cigar boxes. More boxes line the mantel.

We believe that a sunroom with warmth and personal touches can be completed with items you may very well already have on hand: a gorgeous vintage table, a piece of charming wicker furniture, and a lovely rug underfoot.
