Styling Sessions - The Summer Edit

Outdoor rooms have well and truly become an extension of our wider homes and creating this additional aspect has become increasingly fashionable over the past few years.

In collaboration with Klara Bromley (@atticbirds) we chat about outdoor spaces and how to style these to create the perfect alfresco lifestyle as we welcome the month of August.

  • Layering up on soft furnishings that historically have been associated to be used internally within your home, helps bridge the gap between outside and in. 

  • Carpets, shades, cushions & throws make for a good starting point when it comes to adding a sense of comfort and luxury to your chosen space. 

  • Lighting is also worth careful consideration to ensure that the area transitions well from daytime to evening use. This can be created with the use of feature lampshades, festoons and candles for added atmosphere.

  • Consider utilising the addition of herbs in your planters to frame and soften the area. These will stimulate the senses as whilst they offer a variety of textures & greenery shades, they also smell wonderful and can of course be utilised both in food and drink throughout the season. 

  • Repurposing one of your zinc tubs as an ice bucket over the hotter months can also be a great way to introduce a handy area to keep your drinks cool especially when it comes to entertaining.

These simple aspects will help bring together a perfect alfresco lifestyle for you all to enjoy.
