We don’t all have huge gardens to play with but want to maximise the space we do have and shouldn’t have to compromise on style. Let’s look at four ways to get the most out of your outdoor area – from gardens and patios to balconies – whilst still getting to put your stamp on the space.

1. Stackable solutions

When you think about stackable furniture, you probably envisage the cheap plastic white sets your parents used to have, but that is not the face of modern stacking chairs! Allow us to introduce you to LifestyleGarden®’s assortment of stylish stacking options in a range of designs and configurations to suit all tastes. From the stunning handwoven wicker Aruba stacking dining sets, which can seat between two and eight people, to the clean lines of the Panama Dark Collection – where you can take your pick from the DuraOcean® chair or stacking armchair with Weather-Net – boasting elegant black tones with wood effect armrests, there is something for everyone. When you’ve finished eating, simple stack chairs away and give yourself more room.

2. Folding fancies

Again, let go of any preconceived ideas when we talk about the wonders of folding chairs because we are definitely not talking about worn-out old deck chairs. Oh no, the Panama Dark position chair is where convenience meets optimum comfort. Its simple sleek design, with chic matt black frame, is enhanced by a padded Weather-Net seat for pure luxury. And, it can also switch between five positions, making it perfect for dining or reclining and relaxing. The biggest perk is that it folds away when not in use, helping you free up valuable space. Use as a companion set or with a small table for dining in small numbers, or if you have a bit more space to play with and love to entertain, consider the Panama Dark 8-seater reclining dining set.

3. Compact chic

Had your eye on a modular unit or sofa set but given up because you just don’t have space? There are, in fact, compact versions of some of these sets available on the market now, meaning they might not be out of reach. Our contemporary wicker weave collection, Aruba, offers a Lite corner set, a mini corner casual dining set, and medium corner casual dining set; all with more petite measurements than larger models, meaning you might finally be able to find a luxurious modular corner sofa unit with a footprint that fits your space!

This flexible collection even features clever products like the sit on corner table, which doubles up as an extra seat or a handy side table, depending on your needs. So quick and easy to use; just remove the chair cushions and slot in the add-on tabletop.

Nothing saves more space that having furniture that works both inside and out. All of LifestyleGarden®’s collections are suitable for use both inside the home and in a wide range of outdoor spaces. Our elegant designs, including warm rich wood tones, clean modern lines and premium linen-look upholstered cushions, fit harmoniously with interior décor schemes whilst the highly-durable, low-maintenance materials we use to manufacture our products mean they are also tough enough to withstand anything the UK weather can throw at them when outside.
