Modern Adirondack Chair

Thanks for downloading

Stay up to date with all the latest DIY tips

This easy but attractive design is a modern take on the classic Adirondack chair. Comfortable, stylish, and featuring wide but sturdy arm rests that also conveniently handle plates and beverages, the modern Adirondack chair is a great addition to any deck, dock or outdoor living space.

This design is also a pleasure to build because it calls for beautiful, Western Red Cedar, which is easy to work with. It lays straight, takes fasteners easily and the tools love it. Plus, Real Cedar is naturally resistant to rot, decay and insects, making it ideal for all of your outdoor projects.
