If you want to feel comfortable and enjoy being outdoors with family and friends on summer nights, decorating the garden to your liking is essential. However, selecting the right furniture for your garden or terrace isn’t easy. It takes time and you have to find durable, weather-resistant pieces.
What are the keys to choosing the right furniture for the garden or terrace?
Before making your purchase, you should consider the available space, its purpose and what style of decor you wish to embrace.
At Casasola Muebles we recommend folding furniture that is easy to put away, perfect for small spaces. Think about your guests and make sure you select the right number of place settings if you plan to use the terrace or garden as a dining area. Tables, chairs, hammocks, etc….make sure the entire ensemble is decorated in the same theme.
What decor matches your personal style? If you are unsure, our furniture store’s design professionals can help you decide between a contemporary, traditional, classic or modern style, among other possibilities.
One of the most important elements to consider when decorating an outdoor space is the choice of materials.
Materials
– Synthetic rattan is very water and wear resistant as well as versatile. Furniture made in this type of material requires very little upkeep and is perfect for a modern-style decor.
– Natural rattan feels lighter and is nearly impossible to break, although it can’t be left out in the open like synthetic rattan can.
How are both types of rattan cleaned?
– Wood is very resistant to humidity and changes in temperature. It can easily be treated by sanding and applying oil to it both at the beginning and end of the season. It will look great for both classic and rustic-style decor.
– Resin requires very little upkeep and is also resistant to air, humidity and the rays of the sun. It can be cleaned with soap and water.
Colour scheme
Choose the colours for your furniture and decorative items that are best suited to the surroundings, such as the colour of the walls or plants. White, combined with warm tones such as yellow or orange, in addition to green and blue, always looks great outside because it adds a fresh and cheerful look.
And, to add a personal touch to the space, decorate using objects that are meaningful to you: candles, lanterns, cushions, candelabras, shells, plants, etc.
