The best outdoor furniture to turn your garden or balcony into the ultimate summer sanctuary


This year, the search for the best outdoor furniture continues to take on new importance. Even as vaccinated people begin to plan more nights out and distant beach vacations, having fun at home may be the best way to reintegrate into social settings again. And as you probably realized during confinement, beautifying your space (whether it’s a balcony, a terrace, a roof or a garden) is necessary for having fun in society. under the sun.

Let’s start with the basics: a place to sit. A lightweight, portable back chair is perfect for those who need something simple. Looking to make a more sustainable investment? You can’t go wrong with a classic Adirondack or a super plush sky blue padded lounge chair.

No summer night is complete without a outside meals, but you’ll need the right dining set to make it happen. For city dwellers, a bistro set is a chic, space-conscious choice. (Also, a few tips: order in a pop of color, as it works wonders against concrete.) If you have a sprawling lawn or patio and love to entertain, invest in a full dining set. Then please invite me for a cocktail or two.

And don’t forget the accessories: a homemade planter, a round fire pit and an aesthetically pleasing inflatable pool (really).

Below are the 39 best outdoor furniture items, whether you’re a city dweller, country lover, modernist or traditionalist.
