1. Types of garden seating
Garden seating is more than just functional outdoor furniture – it creates a relaxed, inviting atmosphere outside. From garden chairs and lounge chairs to benches, there are plenty of options for every taste and garden style.
Garden chairs
Classic, versatile options for use around the dining table, as seating on the terrace or as individual seats in the garden. They come in various materials, including aluminium, wood and plastic, and in a wide range of designs and styles.
Garden benches
Perfect for get-togethers outdoors or as a quiet retreat in the garden. Garden benches come in various lengths and materials and can either be free-standing or fixed to a solid structure such as a wall. Place them at a right angle to create seating corners that are both modern and cosy.
Lounge chairs
Luxurious, comfortable seating for your garden lounge that invites you to relax and enjoy your garden. Lounge chairs often have upholstered seats and backrests and can be combined with matching footstools or side tables to form a garden seating set.
Rocking chairs
Classic pieces of furniture with a gentle rocking motion that bring a sense of nostalgia and comfort. Rocking chairs come in various styles and materials, from rustic to modern.
Another original and relaxing option for the garden is a hammock – ideal for swinging and resting. For sociable evenings at your own garden bar, choose outdoor bar stools.
