OUTDOOR LIVING ...
THE WONDERFUL OUTDOORS As we are once again enjoying the warm weather, this is a good time to start assessing our outdoor area so that we are all-set for the summer. After all, we want to soak up the sun and dine al fresco in style. Also, it is scientifically proven that spending time outdoors brings great benefits for our health, both mentally and physically. If you don’t have a garden to enjoy, there is no reason why a small patio or terrace cannot be transformed into a mini oasis. Blurring the lines between the indoors and the outdoors – by creating cosy outdoor lounge areas with comfy sofas and armchairs, cushions, firepits, rugs and good shade solutions, for example – creates a luxurious homely feel that makes the outdoor area feel like an extension of your indoor space. With outdoor furniture, investing in quality materials that can withstand harsh weather conditions will pay-off in the longrun, so don’t be afraid to take the plunge.
