Finding the best garden furniture to suit your outdoor space is essential to make the most of the sunny days entertaining friends and family.
When designing your outdoor space, begin by finding the right location for your garden furniture. You may want the area to be close enough to the house for carrying drinks and food for outdoor dining, or you may find that the end of the garden offers the best light and provides enough privacy for entertaining. You may also want to consider the positioning of your garden furniture so that you have a fantastic view, or you could create a vibrant floral backdrop with clusters of hanging planters.
A comfortable seating area is at the heart of any living space. To ensure there’s room for everyone, a variety of seating such as sofas, benches, and reclining sun loungers will provide a range of options for your guests.
Outdoor entertaining in the UK certainly requires the addition of a large umbrella for any unpredictable rain showers and to keep away the heat of the midday sun. An elegant cantilever parasol can be positioned for maximum shade, and as it is free-standing, the parasol can be placed outside the seating area.
Design your outdoor space so that your entertaining can transition from the day into the evening. Think about the accessories you will need, such as side tables for drinks and nibbles, cushions and blankets as it gets cooler, and lighting so that you can entertain into the night. Outdoor fireplaces or fire pits make a striking focal point and add a little campsite magic to your garden. Your outdoor space can be as versatile as you want it to be. Create an outdoor cinema with a projector and comfortable chairs and enjoy your favourite films under the stars.
