Outdoor spaces are no longer just an extension of the home – they are self-contained destinations for relaxation, hospitality, and everyday enjoyment. Whether you have a spacious terrace, a small urban garden, or a city balcony, selecting the right furniture can transform the atmosphere, adding both functionality and style.
At Adorno, we believe every outdoor area has its own identity – and the furniture should be a true reflection of it.
Understand Your Needs and Space
Before choosing any furniture, ask yourselves: What is the primary purpose of the space?
- For al fresco dining, opt for a dining table with statement chairs.
- For moments of relaxation, go for comfortable outdoor sofas, lounge armchairs, or even a daybed.
- In compact areas, consider multifunctional pieces, such as stools that also serve as side tables.
Focus on the Materials
Outdoor furniture must withstand weather conditions while maintaining its aesthetics.
- Aluminium and stainless steel: Durable, lightweight, and perfect for contemporary settings.
- Teak or iroko wood: Natural elegance and high resistance – though they require occasional care.
- Resin and rope: Modern options that form elegant woven designs, ideal for urban rooftops or hospitality environments.
Tip: Mix materials – for example, a wooden table with metal chairs adds personality and balance.
Design for All Times of Day
An outdoor space shouldn’t only serve during daylight hours.
- Add outdoor lighting (floor lamps, hanging lanterns, or solar lights) to create ambiance after dark.
- Choose weather-resistant fabrics for cushions and upholstery – they provide comfort and durability against sun and moisture.
Organize with Ergonomics in Mind
Furniture layout is as important as the furniture itself:
- Leave enough space between seating areas for easy movement.
- For tighter areas, prefer armless seatings or round coffee tables that save room.
- Consider shade structures (such as umbrellas, pergolas, or canopies) as an integral part of the furniture composition.
Outdoor with an Indoor Feel
One of today’s strongest trends is blending the interior with the exterior. Design an outdoor area that reflects the same elegance and care as your indoor living room:
- Carry over color palettes and textures used inside.
- Use decorative elements like outdoor rugs, ceramics, lanterns, and plants in designer pots to add warmth and character.
Outdoor Living Is an Experience
At Adorno, we believe that outdoor spaces deserve the same attention as any indoor room. By investing in the right furniture, you create a living scene that enhances every season.
