1. Choosing the Right Furniture:
The foundation of any outdoor dining area lies in selecting the right pieces to strikes a balance between aesthetics and durability.
- Durable Dining Sets: Opt for outdoor dining sets crafted from weather-resistant materials such Glass Reinforced Concrete (GRC). GRC can withstand the elements, ensuring longevity and minimal maintenance.
- Comfortable Seating: Invest in plush, weather-resistant cushions to enhance the comfort of your outdoor seating. Consider seating options like padded dining chairs or even outdoor sofas for a more relaxed atmosphere.
- Versatile Tables: Choose a dining table that accommodates your desired number of guests and complements the overall style of your outdoor space.
2. Soothing Water Fountains:
Introducing outdoor water fountains to your dining area brings a sense of serenity and harmony, creating a multi-sensory experience.
- Focal Point Features: Choose a water fountain that serves as a focal point. Whether it's a wall-mounted fountain, or a statement piece, the sound of flowing water adds a calming ambiance to the dining space.
- Integration with Greenery: Position water fountains amidst greenery to enhance the visual appeal. The combination of flowing water, and lush plants creates a harmonious and tranquil atmosphere.
3. Greenery and Potted Plants
Incorporating plants and greenery into your outdoor dining area not only adds a touch of nature but also contributes to a relaxing and refreshing atmosphere.
- Potted Plants: Arrange potted plants strategically around the dining area to create a natural barrier and add visual interest. Consider low-maintenance plants such as succulents to add nature into your dining space. Browse our range of urns and planters to find the best piece suited for your yard.
4. Creating Illusions with Mirrors:
Mirrors can work wonders in an outdoor setting, creating visual interest, reflecting light, and giving the illusion of a larger space.
- Strategic Placement: Install mirrors strategically to reflect the surrounding greenery or any water fountains. This not only adds depth to the space but also creates a sense of harmony with the natural elements.
- Mirror Decor: Consider decorative mirrors or mirrored panels as part of your outdoor decor. These can be hung on walls or fences, adding a touch of sophistication, and serving as a focal point for the dining area.
