Move over interior trends – this Spring is all about outeriors and how to make outdoor living spaces as stylish as our homes.
And with forecasters predicting an April heatwave (temperatures of up to 28 degrees could be on the cards) retailers are launching their outdoor living collections earlier this year to cater for expected high demand.
Lucy Mather from online homewares and furniture store Arighi Bianchi says, “We’ve launched our outdoor living collections earlier than ever this year as people are prepping their patios now for the sunny spring days ahead.
“Highlights from our new collection include our stunning Blenheim seating set in both orange and black, new fire lanterns that are great for outdoor tablescaping or as atmospheric lights on a patio, the popular Egg Chair which we expect will sell fast, our oversized parasol with inbuilt lighting, the outdoor bar-style Barrington pyramid patio heater and finally the super comfy Beata corner set with matching coffee table.”
