What’s your garden style?
Materials

What
Garden
Style are you?
Wooden garden furniture is designed for strength and durability
and is a classic choice, suiting most garden styles. Wood is
relatively low maintenance, but it’s essential to treat each
summer to protect against water damage and warping.
Rattan
Rattan garden furniture is lightweight, weather resistant and
requires minimal maintenance. The synthetic weaved material
can be wiped clean and kept outdoors all year round. Rattan
suits the modern aesthetic, with straight edged and curved
designs and glass topped tables.
Metal
Metal furniture is durable, hardwearing and low maintenance
due to rust-resistant finishes. Metal garden sets allow you to create
a classic look in your outdoor space, made contemporary with
gorgeous ornate detailing and metallic finishes.

You don’t need to be in
the countryside, or own
a cottage to have a
rural and rustic garden.
Don’t be afraid to plant
a variety of wild flowers
and let your garden
flourish. Complement the
informal aesthetic with
classic wooden furniture,
such as a relaxing swing
seat or a traditional
bench. For extra antique
appeal, opt for an
ornate metal dining set
and finish the look with
a stone birdbath
or water feature.
The beauty of urban
gardens comes from
making the most of
the outdoor space
available. You can opt
for a modern or a rustic
style, just make sure you
don’t make your small
space feel cramped
by choosing outdoor
furniture that’s too big.
Dine in style with elegant
bistro sets, compact BBQ
tables and two-seater
dining sets. You can still
enjoy gardening, making
your urban space green
with cleverly placed
hanging baskets and
vertical planters.
If you’re a minimalist
gardener creating a
tranquil haven to relax in
this summer, a modern
garden complete with
a rattan furniture set
would be ideal. Add
a protective parasol
complete with granite
base for a luxe look.
Sleek shapes, clean
lines and lavish textures
are popular themes in
modern gardens. Use
decking to add eyecatching levels and
square plant boxes for
symmetry. Don’t forget
the all-important built in
BBQ for alfresco dining!
An extendable garden
dining table is a must,
so the whole family
can dine alfresco this
summer. Indulge in hours
of fun in the sun, then
store away the cushions
and garden games in a
stylish storage box when
the sun sets. Gazebos
provide protection from
the sun and double up
as a garden den. Keep
little gardeners happy
by planting sunflowers.
They’ll love watching
them shooting skywards,
and seeing whose
is the tallest.
