A conceptual idea needs to be developed: to create a <strong>harmonious environment <\/strong>in which all elements contribute to <strong>relaxation<\/strong> and to welcoming guests at parties and dinners. In this sense, setting up a comfortable outdoor living room is the best way to <strong>transform your\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pgcasa.it\/preventivi\/mobili-per-esterno\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>garden<\/strong><\/a><strong>\u00a0into a small oasis of peace<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Firstly, assess how much space is available <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The measurement of the space is compulsory, accompanied by the <strong>evaluation of the lengths and widths of the sides<\/strong>, in which <strong>not only the lounge set<\/strong> with armchairs and coffee table can be inserted, but also <strong>other furnishings<\/strong>: for example, <strong>plants<\/strong>, <strong>lamps,<\/strong>\u00a0 <strong>ottomans<\/strong>and <strong>fireplaces to accommodate the grill<\/strong>. Whether long to create a <strong>rectangular room<\/strong>, or <strong>square<\/strong> to recreate a small compact room, each configuration has its dignity.<\/p>\n<p>If you <strong>only<\/strong>have <strong>a terrace<\/strong>instead of a garden, it is essential to <strong>plan on paper every eventuality<\/strong>: establishing in advance how to arrange the furniture and how much space to occupy.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Garden lounge: what style to choose<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Style is and remains the key to any environment. And like all, the garden living room should <strong>reflect continuity with the interior d\u00e9cor<\/strong>.\u00a0In a modern home where <strong>glass and steel<\/strong>predominate, it will be appropriate to opt for furniture that is <strong>also modern in style<\/strong>: <strong>sanded<\/strong> and plasticised<strong>rattan sofas and table<\/strong> , even better if with a glass top. <strong>Chaise longue<\/strong>, outdoor kitchenette and <strong>poufs<\/strong>\u00a0will complete an outdoor living in sophisticated style. In a contemporary setting, the <strong>Rocket<\/strong> chair from the <strong>Bontempi<\/strong>collection is perfect. <strong>Stackable chair with integral frame made of polypropylene and recyclable glass fibre<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>more rustic furnishings<\/strong> , on the other hand, those made of <strong>woven wicker or wood<\/strong>, will suit <strong>traditional<\/strong> and rural <strong>environments<\/strong> , accompanied by <strong>tartan<\/strong> or Proven\u00e7al <strong>fabric<\/strong> accessories with a <strong>shabby flavour<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Choosing a coffee table for the garden <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Sharing occasions<\/strong> &#8211; dinners, snacks, aperitifs &#8211; are undoubtedly the best occasions to enjoy the charms of an outdoor living room. In this respect, in addition to comfortable and cosy seating, the presence of a table is indispensable. Also small, but necessary as a <strong>base to accommodate drinks and appetisers<\/strong>. The style must reflect the general idea of the furniture, but a <strong>table with great personality<\/strong> is always successful. Like <strong>Bontempi<\/strong>&#8216;s <strong>Club<\/strong> table: a modern classic, <strong>with alacquered steel base for outdoor<\/strong>use, <strong>prepared for laminate and alucompact tops<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_108675\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-108675\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-108675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bontempi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Sedia-Rocket.png\" alt=\"Il salotto da giardino firmato Bontempi\" width=\"750\" height=\"1000\" title=\"\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-108675\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The garden living room by Bontempi<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><strong>Garden furniture: the most suitable materials<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Garden furniture is made of <strong>materials that are suitable for weather resistance<\/strong>. To be sure that your garden furniture will last, it is advisable to go for certified products. The most commonly used materials are:<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong>&#8211; <strong>Polyrattan<\/strong><br \/>\nRattan and polyrattan (the non-natural solution) is an outdoor material characterised by the typical <strong>weave of natural (rattan) or synthetic (polyrattan) material<\/strong>. With the <strong>latest eco-friendly trends<\/strong>, rattan is making a comeback. Natural rattan <strong>is expensive and delicate<\/strong>, the synthetic solution is much more durable.<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong>&#8211; <strong>Iron and Aluminium<\/strong><br \/>\nSimilar but very different, one must distinguish the type of metal. <strong>Wrought iron is a timeless classic<\/strong> with a strong aesthetic character and remarkable strength. The possible drawback is its excessive weight and its not-so-comfortable seating (in fact, it requires very comfortable cushions). <strong>Aluminium, on the other hand, is the material that is a hit in the garden furniture industry<\/strong>: pop solutions are proposed, perhaps combined with bright colours and plastic textures.\u00a0This material makes garden furniture light, durable and weather-resistant.\u00a0<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong>&#8211; <strong>Treated<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Wood Wooden garden lounges are a must-have<\/strong>, undoubtedly beautiful. Whether <strong>teak<\/strong>, <strong>robinia<\/strong>, <strong>bamboo <\/strong>or other tropical woods, these types boast a strong aesthetic connotation. The downside of this furniture is maintenance: wood is a material that requires extreme care.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Garden lounge: even better at night <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The charm of a garden living room often comes through the lighting. Choosing the right one therefore implies <strong>a careful evaluation of all possible opportunities<\/strong>: simple and usual solutions such as an existing outdoor lighting system, or <strong>small garden lamps scattered in corners<\/strong>, or even <strong>LEDs buried or embedded in the ceiling of the veranda<\/strong>.\u00a0 <strong>Romantic floor lamps<\/strong>made of materials suitable for outdoors can also be ideal for shabby-style living rooms. Finally, practical and atmospheric are<strong> lanterns and maxi candle holders<\/strong>, which provide a magical atmosphere.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Style is and remains the key to any environment.
