There are tables around which thoughts float more freely than others and emotions spread in the air like balloons launched into the sky. Tables, but also chairs, armchairs or stools with particular shapes, there to create that perfect atmosphere, between the intimate and the fairytale, in which to let go. Sharing is the order of the day, as is contemplation, deep and silent.
The arrival of summer - and with it high temperatures, very long days and endless smiles - brings a desire to the hearts of design addicts (but not only): to furnish the outdoor space, whether it is a garden, a terrace or a small balcony. In that place that seems suspended in time, almost as if it were an oasis of relaxation adjacent to the house, everything takes on a different, sweeter nuance.
A lunch in the company of your special people, a few pages of the book, an aperitif at sunset or a work call with a view of the open sky. You don't need excessively large spaces or huge gardens, even a small balcony can become a precious corner in which to disconnect your head from thoughts, observe life passing by and the people walking below, talking on the phone and smiling. We have selected for you some ideas from which to take inspiration to understand how to furnish the outdoor space with style, so as to make the most of it, especially during the summer.
The 5 must-haves for decorating your garden or balcony
1 The table for the garden (or the balcony)
2. The chic chairs
3. Sofas and armchairs for relaxation
4. Lamps and lights
5. Accessories and decorations
The table is definitely one of the first things to consider when thinking about outdoor furniture. Not just the surface around which to share lunches and special moments, but also a super chic design object. Our models vary , from the more “raw” ones in wood, perfect for the garden, to the folding steel alternatives for the balcony. If you are thinking of a summer pool party, or simply an afternoon with friends, you could opt for many small tables, alternating high and low models. The space will be functional and chic at the same time.
The atmosphere? Definitely relaxing.
There can be no outdoor space without chairs , especially if the table is the dominant element. Here too, there are many models, one for every personality (and style). You could opt for chairs of the same shade and design as the table , or play on contrasts and color overlaps. The advice we give you, if you are thinking about furnishing your small balcony, is to select folding chairs, so as to optimize space. For a large garden, you could instead opt for more structured models.
Whether it's a garden or a balcony, relaxation is the order of the day. So in the furnishing of the outdoor space, sofas and armchairs cannot be missing, the ideal surfaces on which to rest, let go of thoughts and take advantage of the sun's rays that warm the skin.
The intimate and relaxed atmosphere of the outdoor space is given above all by the lights , an aesthetic element during the day and a technical support in the evening, able to illuminate special moments just like the stars in the summer sky. For a large garden you could choose maxi-floor lamps, while for a small balcony strings of lights will be the romantic and super “cozy” option.
And why not use solar or rechargeable lamps? Great for adding a touch of design to your outdoor space, all in an eco-friendly way.
For outdoors or open windows, also choose a 108 mm E27 LED insect repellent bulb : it illuminates without attracting mosquitoes and midges.
Sunbeds, rugs, tables and maxi-mattresses. Furnishing a garden means combining functionality and style in a welcoming space. The advice is to follow the same shades of color, as well as the design. You could opt for more essential furnishings or super colorful models, a reflection of the summer liveliness.
