Bonjour lecteurs! Autumn is definitely in the air. All I want is to snuggle up with a hot chocolate and a good book. You too? Well, I have all it takes for you to create a cosy space with patio furniture. Plan your landscape seating so that you can still enjoy your outdoor space over the next few weeks. Whether you want to design a welcoming porch to welcome guests or maybe turn a conservatory into a living room and enjoy nature, read those tips and arrange your patio furniture in the correct manner for you to fell comfy and enjoy the autumnal sunshine.
Choose a focal point
Before you even start, you will need to select a focal point that will anchor your outdoor space. This could be an elegant sofa set or a thoughtfully crafted wicker piece that will be the main item in the space.
This way, it will create a natural and timeless look to your space. After all, you want to create this area as a gathering point for all your family and friends to mingle.
Once you have the main pieces, just add the other pieces of furniture around it, et voilà! Your patio is taking good shape. I think I will go for a big vintage chair as it looks so élégant et féminin.
Consider Your Layout Carefully
When designing your patio deck, ensure a layout that avoid a feeling of overwhelm. Space up each item so that your guest can comfortably sit down without feeling stuck.
I would consider a point of entry as well as a specific exit area for your space. You need a clear path, with nothing obstructing it.
For best results, I would allow a minimum of 24 inches in between each chair but if your space allows it, go for over 30 inches.
To divide the patio and give it a bit of a room, add some planters. Not only it will add some colours, but it will also make the space more welcoming.
How To Place Your Furniture
You should place the longest piece of furniture along the longest wall so that it faces the focal point. It will then make your patio look bigger.
You should also consider the way you place it, according to the natural light in your garden.
People usually go for a three-piece sofa set with an addition as a main pieces with a few individual chairs around it.
It will create a welcoming space for all your guests to chat. If you can, do it in a arch shape so nobody is left out.
Go For A Resort Look
I don’t really have a the space in my back garden, but I would love to get a patio similaire to the ones you often find in resorts.
C’est simple to get the the same look and turn your own garden into a resort-style oasis patio.
Simply add sides tables on top of the seating options. If it’s dry, you could even add some bean bag to achieve some holiday vibes.
Don’t forget to prepare some of your fav cocktails et voilà! That will be a Bellini or a Mojito for moi s’il-vous-plaît!
And to complet the look, I would also add some greenery and plenty of lighting to make it even cosier. It’s so beautiful on an autumnal day!
Les Petites Touches
If you have enough space, I would even add a BBQ so that you have like your own little cuisine in the garden.
Place it away from the gathering area and you can then be the chef to your guests or enjoy a cheeky burger or hot dog on the odd occasion of a warmer evening.
For plus de luxe, why not getting a hot tub! Everyone will want to go to your parties!
Lastly but most importantly, you might also want to invest into a sun shade sail to protect your outdoor space.
Et voilà! Just like that, you are set to enjoy some cosy nights! Add a few blankets and maybe some candles and you are ready to relax outdoors with a good glass of wine and a book. Or have the best parties in the neighbourhood! What you do is up to you. Create a cosy space with patio furniture for you and your family to enjoy all year round, because those memories are the best!
