I accept that these may not strictly class as garden furniture in this picture, but I think these crazy jellyfish-like stools would make a great addition to most modern or contemporary garden. Alright so they’re probably not as comfortable as a deck chair and you almost certainly won’t fall asleep on one, as you might in a hammock – but they certainly are a cool way to share a glass of wine in the evening, or chill out while you throw a ball for the dog.

In my opinion, this kind of garden furniture will either look great, or totally out of place depending on the type of garden you have. Clean-cut modern gardens may well benefit from the addition of contemporary furnishings like these, where traditional gardens may only be marred by their presence. Of course, this is by no means a hard and fast rule; my garden is exceptionally traditional and filled with rustic garden furniture, yet I love the juxtaposition of placing crazy little statues and pieces of art around the place – it makes it like my very own Wonderland. Except much more manly of course… In the name of experimentation, I urge you all to buy something strange and put it somewhere in your garden. Go on, go crazy – you only live once (apparently).
