How to choose the right furniture for the garden?

Furniture is an important part of garden design since it offers us comfort and functionality. But how can we choose the proper outdoor furniture? Here are some pointers to get you started:

Choose furniture based on the available space. If you have a small garden or balcony, use folding or compact furniture that takes up little space. If you have a large garden or patio, you can establish seating or dining zones with larger and sturdier pieces of furniture.

Choose garden furniture that complements the style of the garden. If you want a rustic or natural garden, use wooden or rattan furniture that blends well with the surrounding nature. Choose metal or plastic furniture with a basic and attractive design if you want a modern or minimalist garden.

Choose furniture that is weather resistant. The outdoor furniture is subjected to sun, rain, wind, and other weather factors that might degrade its quality and durability. As a result, it is critical to select furniture that is resistant to dampness, UV radiation, and extreme temperatures. You may find out what material it is made of and what treatments it has had by reading the label or product description.

Choose furniture that is both comfortable and ergonomic. Garden furniture should be comfy and ergonomic so that you can enjoy your time outside. Select chairs and sofas with backs and armrests to provide back and arm support. Choose tables that are the right height for the chairs you’ll be using. Choose soft and warm pillows and mattresses.

How to choose colors for decorating the garden?

Colors play a significant role in landscape design because they influence our mood and perception of space. We can use the following factors to determine the proper colors for decorating the garden:

Harmony. We can select colors that complement one another and create a beautiful and balanced atmosphere. For instance, complementary colors (opposite on the color wheel), such as blue and orange, or similar colors (adjacent on the color wheel), such as green and yellow, can be used.

The disparity. Colors that contrast with one another can be used to create a vibrant and lively ambiance. Warm colors (red, orange, yellow, for example) can be used to bring attention to essential features or establish focus points, whereas cold colors (blue, purple, green) can be used to create a sense of spaciousness or coolness.

The character. Colors can be chosen to express our personalities or simply because we like them. For example, we can portray joy and cheerfulness with bright colors (pink, turquoise, fuchsia), or elegance and sobriety with neutral hues (grey, beige, brown).
