You've cleared away the worn furnishings and planted fresh landscaping. Now begins an outdoor remodel project, yet a blank canvas often presents the most intimidating challenges. Survey your outdoor space to seek zones for outdoor garden furniture, decor, or features like a fire pit or cinema under the stars, elevating functionality. But how do you prioritise additions? We can assist in maximising your yard by covering popular practical ideas.
Host Blockbuster Screenings
Warming springs and summers beckon outdoor entertainment. Friends and family movie nights require planning an area and deciding on a flat-screen TV that can be used outdoors or a projector with a standing or inflating screen for 20 seated comfortably. Outdoor garden furniture, like cozy seating arrangements, makes these events unforgettable. Outdoor TVs suit more comfortable spaces for two to eight, providing the perfect setup for intimate gatherings under the stars.
Add an Outdoor Culinary Zone
For anyone who relishes hosting friends and family in the great outdoors, crafting an alfresco cooking station is a superb choice for maximising backyard bliss. Proper preparation and setup allow you to host memorable meals and make lasting memories around a sizzling grill or griddle.
While outdoor kitchen designs vary greatly, specific configurations tend to function best. An L or U formation often optimises space while allowing socialising. Conversely, an oval or circular layout promotes fluidity of movement. Consult various plans to discern the optimal arrangement for your needs and area.
Prior to selecting appliances, focus first on durability. Components exposed to the elements, such as a grill, require rustproof stainless or coated steel. Likewise, work surfaces like butchering blocks demand nonporous stone resistant to stains and cracks. Furnishings also warrant weather-hardy components that withstand spills and sunshine without fading.
No culinary area is complete without cozy seating. Hospitality heights fitted for casual dining accentuate conversations over cuisine. Place a few matched sets along the periphery to offer an inviting spot for guests to dive into your latest dishes straight from the heat. Our ergonomic and stylish outdoor garden furniture options suit traditional or modern aesthetics, assuring comfort for all.
Designate an Alfresco Dining Zone
One of the most popular uses of expansive outdoor areas is allocating space for gatherings around a table. Enjoying meals outside allows one to take in vistas while visiting over meals.
Prior to selecting furnishings, consider how many may dine and where the best location would be. Questions like table size and chair quantity help determine an efficient layout. Protection from elements like sun or breeze also factors into positioning. With diligence in planning, you can configure the ideal setting for making memories under the sky.
Planning for outdoor dining involves balancing function with aesthetic appeal. Thoughtfully designing the space from the outset allows relaxing meals with family and friends. Whether hosting two or twelve, comfortable furniture suited to your needs creates the perfect setting.
POLYWOOD® furniture brings lasting comfort through thoughtful engineering. Nothing beats an evening under the stars with a crackling fire. A fire pit encircled with Adirondack chairs invites lingering. Surrounding with seating facing the yard allows movie nights that mingle entertainment and warmth. Whether sharing stories or roasting treats, flames draw companions together with their light and heat. In cooler seasons especially, a fire's flickering dance draws eyes and lifts spirits.
Foreseeing use and selecting quality pieces tailored to your tastes makes the most of outdoor space. Enjoying meals al fresco or evening entertainment becomes effortless with a layout incorporating all needs. Function and beauty joining hands allows relaxing fully in scenery of your own design.
No matter how outdoor space is used, fill it with high-quality POLYWOOD® furniture that resists wear’s effects. Various options provide solutions for any need—safety, seating, and durability for relaxing months after purchase. Or for more traditional timber furnishings, choose from our hardwood timber range.
