How to choose outdoor furniture?

What is the best outdoor furniture? Well, there is no right answer, because everyone's needs and expectations are different.

When choosing outdoor furniture, it is important to consider:

1. Size and weight

▫️It is necessary to measure the terrace so that the furniture does not overload the space and there is enough room for movement and additional decorations (e.g., lanterns or flowers).

▫️Estimate how many people will usually relax on the terrace and choose the size of the set accordingly.

▫️If you plan to move furniture frequently, change the layout - it should be lighter or dismountable.

▫️If it is particularly windy on the open terrace, you should consider the weight of the furniture (heavier - more stable). And we definitely use the slogan that our furniture can withstand all storms - both nature and guests!

▫️Cushions attached to the furniture frame are a big advantage!

2. Style and design

▫️Consider the overall aesthetics and style of the terrace - the furniture should match the exterior of the house and its surroundings.

We offer a wide selection of color combinations so that everyone can individually customize to their own taste.

3. Functionality/convenience

▫️Think about what you will use the furniture for most (relaxation, larger gatherings, outdoor dining, etc.). This will determine the type of furniture you choose (lounge type, comfortable "sit-in" type, or those that are more versatile for relaxation and dining (more regular seating height).

And if you have the opportunity and need to have two zones - furniture for relaxation and a separate dining table is the best choice.

We manufacture tables of various sizes and heights as needed.

4. Materials, durability and strength

▫️It goes without saying that outdoor furniture must be weatherproof. However, not all materials and fabrics on the market have the same resistance to UV, moisture, precipitation, mold, etc.

▫️When choosing furniture, it is no less important to find out what kind of care it will require and whether it meets your expectations.

▫️Sturdy furniture construction is essential for longevity. It's the foundation of everything.

5. Future plans/complementation of the equipment

▫️Consider whether you intend to change the set in the future if your needs change. The ability to add to the set in the future is a great advantage (e.g. an additional armchair, sofa, loveseat, etc.), to transform from a sofa into a corner sofa, or vice versa.

6. Service/maintenance

▫️ It is a big advantage if you can express your wishes and needs and receive individual consultation and advice.

It would be possible to expand on this in more detail, but the main points have been mentioned.
