As the warmer months approach, having a stylish outdoor area to relax, dine alfresco and entertain family and friends is increasing appealing. More than ever, interior designs and stylists are focusing on creating a seamless connection between the indoors and out, with many outdoor spaces now boasting furniture that is equally – if not more stylish – than that seen indoors.
Anthony Spon-Smith, Coco Republic co-owner and designer believes that an alfresco area should be a priority when it comes to styling your home. “Interiors get done and then people move onto what to do with the outdoor space. In Australia we have a very beautiful country and climate and the outdoors should be as good, if not better than the interiors.” He recommends buying something you love that will enhance the space.
When selecting furniture it’s crucial that you consider what your area will be used for and what pieces are best suited to you and your family’s needs. “Personally, I believe many people default to dining settings outdoors, when in reality a seating arrangement will give them more from the space,” explains Anthony.
If you’re looking to elevate your alfresco area, browse through this fabulous selection of furniture items that are sure to inspire you to spend more time outdoors.

What is the most sun resistant outdoor furniture?
In Australia, it’s especially important to understand which materials and fabrics are the most sun and weather resistant for outdoor furniture, given our extreme weather conditions. Although natural fibres look beautiful, synthetic fibres and materials, like UV-resistant resin, UV-treated fabrics, synthetic wicker, and powder-coated aluminium are the most weather resistant materials available on the market. If possible, it’s also best to store your outdoor furniture undercover when it’s not in use.
