The addition of outdoor furniture has the ability to enhance and transform any space from a blank void to a welcoming and inviting atmosphere where people want to spend time. In making this transformation, there are many aspects that should be considered in order to find the right outdoor furniture to suit your space and needs. If the following considerations are made you have the opportunity to bring any outdoor area to life:
1) Functionality and purpose
Outdoor furniture should be stylish as well as functional. Consider how the entire space will be utilised and extra points for multi-functionality. Getting furniture that can also act as a two-for-one is an added bonus. Need more standing space for that party? Now I bet you’re glad you got those chairs that stack. Is it getting colder? Don’t forget that your bench has those blankets stored inside!
2) Consider both comfort and quality
The two most crucial features of outdoor furniture are comfort and quality. It is essential to obtain the best level of quality that will withhold the elements, but at a reasonable price. However, even the nicest furniture in the world is useless if no one wants to use it. Comfort is key! Be sure to test out any and all furniture like you would a mattress before you purchase it.
3) Choose the right material
Outdoor furniture comes in a variety of materials, including wood, teak, aluminium, and stainless steel. Each material has its own set of advantages and disadvantages, so researching the right fit is key…and don’t forget to make sure those cushions are waterproof. Choosing the right material for your space can save you possible maintenance and/or repair costs in the future.
4) Utilise colour
A great way to bring life and character into your space is to utilise colour in your furniture choices. Find vibrant coloured accessories that are an extension of those flowers that you love or purchase that beautiful accent piece you’ve always been dreaming about.
