Outdoor furniture for all seasons

In summer, we spend more time outdoors, the days get longer, and the boundary between indoors and outdoors becomes blurred. Our homes become larger when the garden becomes our living room, a room that is just as important as the rest of the house. The design, comfort and style of outdoor furniture is becoming more and more similar to what we see indoors, blurring the line between inside and outside.

But what makes us spend time in the garden or on the terrace only in summer?
The weather, of course! We like the sun, the warmth and the light.

But the fact is that many outdoor furniture items can withstand both wind and weather and work just as well all year round. Materials such as aluminium, teak and synthetic rattan are durable. Of course, you should protect your outdoor furniture during the worst months, but many outdoor furniture items are made from more durable and maintenance-free materials.

Get a good furniture cover so you can keep your furniture outside and more easily accessible even during the colder months.

Outdoor textiles

Warm blankets, cushions, sheepskins and lighting can turn your patio into a cosy oasis even in early spring, late autumn and winter. Adding textiles creates a softer impression and a more cosy feeling, even outdoors.

Start spring in your greenhouse, conservatory or pergola and create a cosy oasis for cold autumn evenings and early December mornings. Enjoy your afternoon coffee, Advent treats or lunch sausage outdoors!

Brafab creates outdoor furniture in sustainable materials such as aluminium, teak and bamboo, in a design and at a price that suits most people. Sika Design makes beautiful rattan furniture and Skinnwille manufactures cosy blankets, throws and cushions.

Outdoor furniture for small spaces

Do you live in an apartment with a balcony, or simply don't have a very large garden or patio? Don't worry, we have something for you too. There are smaller café tables and smaller sofas for those who don't have much space. You can create equally beautiful and cosy outdoor environments in a small space.

Here are 5 tips for maximising the space on your small balcony:

1. Look for furniture that can serve multiple functions, such as a cushion box that can be used for storage as well as a table or bench.

2. Buy chairs that can be folded up so that they don't take up too much space when not in use.

3. Choose a folding table that can be made larger when needed but takes up just the right amount of space for everyday use.

4. There are often parasols and tables that can be attached to the balcony railing to save floor space.

5. A small modular sofa set that can be rearranged is also a smart piece of furniture for small spaces.

 

Outdoor furniture for large spaces

Do you have a large garden or terrace? Think a little more like you do indoors. Create different rooms or zones in your garden too. Here are 5 tips to consider when you have a large outdoor space:

1. What functions do you want the space to have? Somewhere to sit comfortably when eating? Somewhere to relax, cook, sunbathe? That way, you'll know whether you need a lounge set, a dining set, sun loungers, an outdoor kitchen or whatever else. Maybe all of the above?!

2. Think about sun and shade. Where does the sun rise and set in your garden or patio? This may determine the best location for a sun lounger, a dining area or a lounge set.

3. If you have a lot of space, go for slightly larger furniture that works better in a large area. Smaller sets can easily look out of place in a large area.

4. Use outdoor rugs to frame and define the space. This also creates a softer impression.

5. Use lighting to make the space more lively and pleasant.
