Scatter Cushions: Comfort and Style in your Outdoor Living Space
Outdoor garden furniture is the centre of any good outdoor living space, the hub for friends and family alike to spend time relaxing and dining together. As a result, it is essential you make the right choice for you and your garden. This handy guide makes that decision easy, giving you all you need to know before buying your next outdoor furniture set.
Measure Your Space
As with your interior, the size of your outdoor space will have a huge impact on the scope of design. Measure your available space and consider which outdoor garden furniture is best suited to the area. For smaller gardens and patios, compact furniture sets may suit best, while large, open gardens may lend themselves to larger dining sets. Try to find sets to offer versatility, a dual height table, which can be positioned at dining or coffee table heights, or a firepit table which can be used as a dining table, both are multi-purpose and ideal for year-round use.
Sun and Shade
Whether we like it or not, the sun is critical to our enjoyment of the garden, and so it must be considered before buying outdoor garden furniture. Being aware on the outlook and orientation of your furniture in relation to the sun allows you to maximise your outdoor experience. Consider too, the direction of the sun, and allow space for a cantilever parasol or pergola if you need to add shade in a sunny spot. Take note of where the sun rises and sets, this will impact where the sun is in the morning and evening, an important consideration when entertaining family and friends. Accessorising the space with additional lighting and heating will also extend the use of the area, even when the sun goes down.
Dining or Lounging
Outdoor garden furniture is somewhere you can easily spend lots of time, so it’s important to know how you intend to use it. If you’re planning on doing lots of entertaining, then you may want to consider a larger, more elaborate dining set, while sun loungers and coffee tables are perfect for easy everyday lounging.
Materials
The material your furniture is made from can make a huge difference to the longevity of its use, and each option has its own benefits. None, however, offer the durability and style of metal.
