How to decorate a wooden terrace with garden furniture? Our craftsmen give you all the answers.
What criteria should be considered when choosing garden furniture?
Before setting up garden furniture on your wooden terrace, it's important to consider several criteria:
The intended use of the garden furniture
Depending on the use, garden furniture comes in different configurations:
-
Low garden furniture: their low configuration is perfectly suited for aperitifs. Most often, they consist of a coffee table and a few stools;
-
High garden furniture: thanks to their high configuration, these sets are ideal furniture for family meals and entertaining guests. They usually consist of high chairs and high tables arranged in a small corner;
It is also important to consider the number of seats when choosing garden furniture. Indeed, garden furniture must be able to accommodate a certain number of people without compromising its design. So, don't hesitate to ask yourself about the primary use you will make of your garden furniture.
The area of the wooden terrace
To maintain consistency and utility, it is important to respect the balance of your terrace by adjusting the furniture that makes up your garden set accordingly. Here are some equipment suggestions:
-
For a small terrace: it is advisable to choose a small square or round table to allow free movement. You can also opt for folding chairs to save space;
-
For a large terrace: XXL garden furniture has its advantages on this type of terrace. Be sure to mix tables for five to ten guests by incorporating other types of furniture (sofas, swing seats, etc.).
However, the space of a large terrace should be maximized when installing garden furniture without cluttering the overall design.
The design of the wooden terrace
In addition to the surface area and use, the garden furniture must also depend on the design of the wooden terrace. Once the extent is determined, you must think about the design you desire, because wooden terraces offer a wide range of design possibilities:
- Zen and cocooning style;
- Contemporary design;
- Bohemian style;
- Industrial style;
- Etc.
Consider then matching the colors of the lounge furniture with the rest of the wooden garden to give an impression of uniformity.
What are the best materials for garden furniture?
Garden furniture is made from several different types of materials. It is therefore advisable to pay attention when choosing, as each of these components has specific constraints in terms of design and maintenance.
Depending on the type of materials, we can distinguish several models of garden furniture:
Woven resin garden furniture
Woven resin has been a staple of outdoor furniture for many years. Little sensitive to bad weather, woven resin garden furniture is also very comfortable.
It adapts perfectly to different designs and can be used in small spaces.
Aluminum garden furniture
Aluminum garden furniture is very popular on wooden terraces because it contrasts with the naturalness of the wood and creates a warm atmosphere. Unlike other metal materials, it is very weather resistant and does not rust.
It is light, very aesthetic and stands out, whatever the color of the terrace design.
Wrought iron garden furniture
Metal is a safe bet for modern, romantic, and sober decorations. By choosing wrought iron garden furniture, you can give your terrace a bright and harmonious look.
You can, however, maintain a retro style on your terrace by mixing iron with other natural materials such as
resin, rattan and other wood species.
Wooden garden furniture
Leaders in the field of decoration, wooden garden furniture is very popular with many people. This material adapts to all styles and offers many species, namely:
- Teak;
- Acacia;
- Bamboo;
- Pine;
- Eucalyptus;
- Rattan;
