Feb 02, 2022

Whether you are creating your outside space from scratch or looking to complete your open-air living room with a few extra touches, we believe that your outdoor room should be an extension of your interior style.
Creating an elevated outdoor space is all about considering the details.  There are a few simple ways you can look to elevate your outdoor areas and bring an enviable sense of style and design - perfect for a summer of effortless entertaining!

01. Stay Grounded

Introducing elements that we typically see indoors brings a more inviting feel to an outdoor space. A rug is the perfect place to start!  There is a great selection of outdoor rugs now available that are both soft and durable.  A range of patterns and colours mean that you can create a foundation and ground the space for your furniture layout.

02. Function Meets Beauty

Incorporating outdoor furniture pieces that are designed with form and function in mind are key and bring the comfort of the indoors out.  We love to add in side tables for a convenient place to stash your cocktail or elevate the scheme to the next level with a well stocked bar trolley! Coffee tables and ottomans create the perfect place to rest your holiday reading material, whilst a cosy hanging pod chair brings interest and creates the perfect lazy Sunday nap nook.

03. Texture & Textiles

When it comes to styling outdoor cushions, follow similar principles to your interior – think texture, a range of sizes and make sure you play with patterns.  The growing range of outdoor fabrics and trims means you can add playful touches that cope with our harsh UV environment. Add an outdoor throw to spend cosy evenings outdoors. Filling in the corners of your outdoor lounge by layering planters makes the space inviting and lived-in.

Foliage will bring softness to your space and with the huge range of shapes and sizes you can add a touch of personality to make your outdoor space feel truly unique. We love to use vases & planters on the side closest to the home to create an environment where you feel completely surrounded by nature.

05. Set The Mood

We love to use lighting to create ambiance and relax your guests, whether indoors or out.  Think about layering in multiple soft light sources like string lights, lanterns, and candles along with your outdoor brazier.


06. The Finishing Touches

Last but not least, don't forget the finishing touches! Select pretty and functional pieces, lovely trays, candles, glasses and bottle openers for stress-free entertaining. Simple vases of flowers and greenery keep it soft and organic  -  create a space your guests won't want to leave and somewhere you can relax and completely enjoy yourself!
