Spring is just around the corner! Is your terrace or outdoor area ready for guests who love soaking up the sun, enjoy a breath of crispy fresh air and have a mindful walk?! Read about all you need to create the best outdoor experience for your hotel and restaurant guests; from outdoor furniture to lighting and accessories.

Furniture

To determine what type of furniture your terrace requires it is important to specify how your outdoor area is used. Is it used as an extension of your restaurant? In this case it is recommended to offer comfortable upright seats with tables that are big enough to serve multiple courses including drinks. Is the space used to enjoy drinks from the bar than lower lounge seats or high stools with standing tables are a good option.

The August outdoor range is a beautiful example of contemporary furniture that is perfect for food and beverage purposes. The chairs are stylish, very comfortable and can be combined with a variety of (dining) tables, sun loungers and stools.

Do you offer a swimming pool or other relaxing activities in your hotel garden than it is smart to think about daybeds or other lower chill furniture. A beautiful option is the GROW series. Whether you place a single seater or choose to place a complete sofa combination your guests will appreciate the intimate vibe created by this comfortable and soft furniture. Furthermore the items are easy to clean and very resistable, perfect for hospitality use!

We love the Soul Collection for their stunning design and high quality. This Collection entails seats and coffee tables that have the looks of indoor furniture but are highly resistent to weather factors. Super comfortable cushions offer the perfect setting to lounge.

Is your garden or other outdoor area also used as an event space for parties, weddings and (corporate) drinks? Than we highly recommend the use of multifunctional, comfortable and easy to move furniture. A great example is the Palm line that provides the ultimate warm, Bali-style and is weather proof. And fun fact; the palm range is the only stackable rattan furniture on the market! Available in black and white and when the weather disappoints this furniture will do the opposite when used indoors.

Are you going for a daring desert safari style or are you looking for contemporary classics?! We have something for every hotel!

Look at this beautiful safari chair for example. Another great example of daring style is futuristic furniture from the Reva series, modern and very comfortable, your terrace can be easily transformed into a piece of art. This collection stands out for its striking stainless steel backrests woven with rope in weather-resistant polypropylene, for a truly natural look.

Having determined the function of your outdoor area we move forward to the (interior) design of your establishment. In our opinion your outdoor area is the ultimate extension of your indoor experience, also when it comes to style!

Lighting

The best presentation of your outdoor area comes through even better lighting! Create a magical ambience with elegant table lights and highlight your terrace with beautiful, functional standing lights. With lights you can use your outdoor area day to night and create an even more beautiful experience.

An example are the Tawa mobile LED lights that are inspired by traditional lanterns, they are wireless thus very flexible. Also the lights can be charged easily through a magnetic clip.

LED outdoor table lamps are also a great lighting solution, chargable with a USB cable and two different light shades to fit every mood. There are multiple different models from simple to classic lamp shaped. The lamps are very flexible as they are wireless and can be transformed into a hanging lamp and floor lamp. The classic light is turned on by touching the shade, how inventive!

Are you looking for ultimate impact?! How about transforming your outdoor furniture into light sources. This is possible for various models in our outdoor furniture range by using the Lumen application; from lounge chairs to coffee tables. The lights can be easily recharged and programmed into any desired color. With Lumen you have already decorated half the party!

The beautiful external lights on the right, is a rechargeable battery powered cordless lamp. An electronic controller monitors the remaining autonomy. In their range you will find many more outstanding models, all designed as remarkable interior pieces, but appropriate for outdoor use. There are so many inspiring options to highlight your terrace and outdoor area, we are more than ready to share all the novelties!

Accessories

Of course this blog is not complete without accessories; the finishing touch to any hotel space! In our range we offer a lot of accessories such as vases, table lights and candle holders.

Very practical when you offer F&B services near a pool or rooftop is unbreakable glassware and china. The drinkwise and platewise series look exactly like the real deal but won’t break and cause dangerous situations. Stylish and durable plates made from renewable bamboo for example and drinking gear that stands up to the back of the house handling and dishwashing.

How about beautiful Lind DNA vases?! There are big models for large bouquets but also small, elegant vases for little flowers, the perfect way to highlight the season, spring and summer! Also in their collection are swinging vases that can be hung op on a tree or above a table, they can be dressed with a candle or flowers to create the ultimate outdoor experience.

Please bear in mind that most of these accessories are not suitable for constant outdoor use, but of course they are ready to shine when there is no rain or wind!

Last but not least; the best way to spice up any outdoor areas are umbrellas! Functional and fashionable, such as these playful designs, available in various prints and monocolors. In addition we offer parasols that are weather-proof and interconnectable for example, practical solutions that can be easily installed through the umbrella holders.
