THIS YEARS TRENDING OUTDOOR FURNITURE

Allowing for more space and providing more shade cantilever umbrellas are becoming increasingly popular with consumers. Design Concepts collection of outdoor umbrellas come in a full range of colours that will enhance any outdoor area.
With improvements to outdoor materials outdoor rugs are the perfect accessory to bring the indoors out.
Vibrant, bold tones are being strategically incorporated into throw pillows and are often paired with neutral shades to make them pop.
Hunter Furniture continues the bold colour trend with the Pirello dinning chair. Having less of a visual impact the lattice pattern allows light to travel through the chair so as not to look to bulky.
Swing sofas are a contemporary element you can add to any outdoor area. Big enough to lounge in, swing sofas are a comfortable and stylish way to enhance a boring outdoor deck.
Lighting has the ability to change the atmosphere of any space. Top Secret has a full range of LED spherical lights that can float on water, are solar powered and that can change colour.
With the harsh New Zealand sun set to scour the country this summer, sun protection is always important. Folding Canopies attached to day beds and sofas allow for consumers to relax in shade without the fear of getting sunburnt.
Long gone are the days of the stone firepit. Outdoor fires are becoming increasingly contemporary allowing consumers to create a sophisticated indoor feel in their outdoor area.
The emergence of the retro feeling is seeing consumers going back to woven styles and crochet techniques. In addition, the woven trend is going one step further with the introduction of non-traditional, bold colours being used in woven and wicker furniture.
One of the biggest trends for the year is transporting your usual interior setting to your outdoor space. Coffee tables, pillows, rugs and even the occasional blanket are now more than welcome into your outdoor space.

With warm summer days on the horizon, it’s time to prep your patio and deck for outdoor entertaining. Outdoor furniture has evolved over the years, from old compactable lawn accessories stored in sheds, to recreating entire living rooms outdoors. Outdoor fires, woven bucket seats, coffee tables and swing seats are reflecting consumers desires to create relaxing outdoor retreats.

Technology has improved materials so much that furniture can now be left out in the rain without the fear of it being ruined or stained. With the rise of indoor/outdoor living, outdoor furniture has become an extension of the interior leading to more styles and choice of colour than ever before. This season, it’s all about natural materials, retro-inspired style, bringing the indoors outside and experimenting with colours, patterns and textures. The number one trend this summer is the seamless transition from your home to your outdoor space using outdoor rugs, coffee tables, and throw pillows. This summer will see an increase in experimentation with colours, patterns, textures and lighting. Here are the top ten trends you’ll be seeing everywhere this summer:
