What you should be looking out for in outdoor furniture

Why buy two when one will do? Current outdoor furniture is so stylish and practical you can easily use move it from the garden to the living room.

Frankly, it’s rare for me to come across many weatherproof chairs, sofas and coffee tables that look so good, I’d be tempted move them indoors after the summer. But this year is a different story.

This season’s garden furniture isn’t just resistant to sunlight and stains, it also looks nothing like your typical, scratchy outdoor stuff. I’m pretty sure that’s down to craft.

But what truly sets them apart is their versatility. This is achieved by high-quality materials and elegant designs. Thanks to these factors, the furniture works both indoors and outdoors.

Thanks to new materials, fabric and upholstery webbing have become more comfortable and can easily keep up with indoor fabrics. Not to mention the higher quality FSC-certified wood that’s used. The difference is huge, and you can hardly tell these designs apart from conventional indoor furniture.

I never used to pay much attention to detail when it came to outdoor furniture, but I definitely am now. After all, furniture that looks good both indoors and outdoors is more than you could ask for really.
