Outdoor Furnishings: This Year’s Trends

With the arrival of the warm season, it is natural to want to enjoy the outdoor spaces of your home. Whether it’s a garden, terrace, or even a balcony — small or large — in 2022 the key words for outdoor furniture are simplicity and design.

Outdoor spaces are being reimagined with a new approach, taking into account innovations in digital technology: the boundaries between indoor and outdoor spaces are becoming increasingly blurred, if not entirely erased. 

Therefore, anything that is not functional and cannot fully serve its original purpose should be avoided. This does not mean you cannot take risks — on the contrary. The important thing is to do so with a focus on simplicity. Let’s dive into the details and discover this year’s trends in outdoor furniture for 2022.

A Fresh Style

When the heat arrives, what is most enjoyable is having a corner where you can relax — ideally in the shade — during the afternoon and even at night under the stars. In addition to comfortable chaise longues, one of this year’s trends is a true lounging bed, even generously sized, that evokes the feeling of a relaxing sailing trip. 

One particularly interesting piece is the teak canopy bed, easy to assemble and perfect for both indoor and outdoor use. This solution confirms what we mentioned earlier: the desire to have, as described in an article published in Ville&Casali, furnishing solutions that merge indoor and outdoor elements, following a design style that is sophisticated, harmonious, and fresh. 

A wood like teak perfectly embodies this mood, being both elegant, durable, and bright. It also takes center stage in another design piece — this time a table. We are referring to the Alplus table with teak slat top, where the beauty of teak wood is further enhanced by the legs in a crisp, flawless shade of white. A simple, minimal mood with an ethnic touch. Suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, just as this year’s trends dictate.

Increasingly Design-Oriented Solutions

The latest outdoor furniture collections offer a style increasingly designed with both people and nature in mind, using materials that are not only beautiful but also, as discussed in Elle Decor, in harmony with the environment; materials that are long-lasting and bring a touch of design even to open-air spaces.

Several articles in Living, the Corriere della Sera home design magazine, highlight the importance of garden furniture. Even an object like the parasol has become increasingly refined, beautiful, and functional, ideal for a country house or poolside. This is the case of the Athena parasol, a brand known for expressing the essence of contemporary design in every piece of furniture and object. The same applies to another outdoor furniture item from Athena: the Step lounger, featuring soft lines that enhance seating comfort.

This year’s trending outdoor furniture offerings reflect a new way of living — one that seamlessly transitions between indoor and outdoor spaces, in pursuit of the ultimate multisensory relaxation experience.
