If push came to shove, you could create the same lavish-shaped design as a sectional using an outdoor couch and loveseat combo. However, one of the benefits of choosing a sectional vs. a sofa and loveseat is that sectionals have longer seats that let you sit closer to your friends and loved ones. As a result, a single sectional can usually fit more people than a patio sofa and loveseat configuration. http://greatpatiofurniture.co
