Bring the inside out
Do you want to experience that cozy atmosphere inside in the garden? Then choose to add an outdoor rug. Besides being a trend, it also gives your garden set more appearance and atmosphere. An outdoor rug makes that nice corner where you want to spend the summer evenings just that little bit extra cozy. You can choose a cool color so that it stands out or one that blends in more. In addition, it can also be practical if you have your garden set on tiles. These can become very hot in the sun, but the rug will not bother you. You can also complete the picture with the nicest outdoor accessories. Think of decorative cushions for outdoors, solar lights, outdoor paintings and flower pots.
Purchasing garden furniture; what do you pay attention to?
- Measuring is knowing! What is the size of the terrace?
It is of course important to think in advance which space you want to use in the garden. It is then useful to measure how large that space is. This allows you to search more specifically and immediately check whether the formats fit. If you choose a table with chairs around it, we recommend that you allow 75 cm of extra space behind the chair to slide.
Don't have much space? Then choose a bar table with bar stools on the terrace. This takes up relatively less space and yet you can enjoy it with several people.
- Which garden furniture do you want to place where?
Have you measured everything? Then you can make a plan or map in advance! Here you can write down which products you think you need and what you would like to place where. Do you want a terrace with a garden table and chairs, would you prefer a lovely lounge set under the pergola, a hammock between the trees or just sunbeds in the grass? Take into account, for example: a large parasol that still needs to be added or whether you want to have space left to create extra seating areas. This way you can make it as extensive for yourself as you want.
Did you know that when you place your table along the length of the house, you visually create more space, you maintain your line of sight and you also have a more pleasant view of your garden? This may even leave you with some space so you can add a nice lounge set or a lovely lounge chair to sunbathe in.
- Material type.
- Polyester
The advantages of garden furniture with polyester are that it dries quickly, strong material, durable, light to wipe and easy to maintain. Polyester rope has been pre-stretched so that it no longer stretches during use. This has the great advantage that a piece of garden furniture from roep can also be used without cushions.
- Metal
Metal, such as aluminum or stainless steel, is an excellent choice for more modern garden designs. It is durable, easy to clean and requires little maintenance. However, metal can become hot in direct sunlight, so pillows are often necessary for extra comfort.
- Sintered stone
This material is unbreakable, water and stain proof and easy to clean. That is why sintered stone is becoming increasingly popular in furniture design. Sintered stone is very sturdy, looks natural and is a natural material, which means it does not release harmful substances into the environment. It is scratch resistant and unbreakable. A designer dining table made of sintered stone requires little maintenance and looks very stylish!
