Aluminium Garden FurnitureGarden Furniture Design

When most people think of garden furniture, I imagine they think of a classic table-and-chairs arrangement, be it plastic, wood or aluminium. I expect a parasol features as well – or umbrella as it should really be known in this country, since we all know it’s not the sun we’re trying to shelter from! Ironically, I suppose sun-loungers would also spring to mind – those longer-looking chairs that are either stored vertically in the shed or sit on the patio collecting mould all year….

However, I wonder how many people consider putting something like an armchair literally into the garden… I don’t necessarily mean putting a chair amongst the flowers but, where most garden furniture sits on a patio, there is something immersive about putting a single chair in the middle of the garden – surrounding yourself with nature, if you will. Now I admit, most garden chairs are cheap, plastic things that almost certainly do not help the “at-one-ness” of the situation, no matter how much nature you surround yourself with. This is why I thought I’d suggest looking into buying a nicer chair, more suited to allowing you to enjoy your garden. For example, these little numbers:

Naturally reclined, low-set and made of a lovely wood, these chairs are a much better way to enjoy your garden than a nasty plastic thing plonked amongst the shrubbery!
