Flexible and ergonomic furnishings

Look at hanging furniture that’s modular and dynamic – think classy hammocks and stylish hanging sofas.

Natural materials

The outdoors is our natural environment, look at natural materials in your outdoor furniture and look for a colour match in accessories; taupe, brown, grey.

Minimalism

Less is more – White can be the main colour with brushed aluminium material and accessories to provide that pop of interest you’re searching for.

Outdoor kitchen

A solo BBQ isn’t enough anymore, build and extend your kitchen to your patio, include a wine cooler and perhaps a pizza oven.

Succulents

The succulent revival is now, no longer stuck in the 80’s these low maintenance plants are here to stay and excite.

Flexible family gardens

Planter boxes with room to grow with your kids, providing a long term project they can be proud of. Fill them up with greenery that will provide an aesthetic bonus to soften some of your design edges.

Functional spaces

The real secret to design and 2020 trends is function, your space should look great and work even better.  Spaces that can be used for cooking, dining and relaxing will stand above the rest.

Outdoor fireplaces

Outdoor rooms are a hot trend and should be designed for year long use so look to install an outdoor fireplace or fire pit that matches your aesthetic.

Darker colour fireplaces

Moving into the roaring 20’s look for charcoal grey or even darker. This gives the illusion of space and is a great way to modernise your place.

Stripes

Stripes don’t have to be reserved for furniture, look to create contrast with lines of colour or even textures. 2020 is all about defining spaces and stripes will help you accomplish this.

Mixed materials

Look to juxtapose materials this year. Concrete and oak, wicker and aluminium, copper and birch. Large swathes of singular materials are out and clean lines and variety are in.

Shade umbrellas

Premium outdoor umbrellas are the best way to maximise your useable outdoor space. Cantilever umbrellas are perfect for entertaining.

Lighting

LED technology has brought forth a new age of design – use custom LED lighting to highlight the features of your outdoor space, with any colour you want. Strips of light along your edges or spot lights to highlight features of your outdoor design.

Modular furnishings

Multi-layout products are on-trend. Find furniture and fixings that can be moved and molded to changing perceptions and the shifting sun.

Metallic finishes

Copper, brass, aluminium and chrome are all on trend and will continue to be important to any outdoor design in future seasons.

Dual purpose furniture

Copper, brass, aluminium and chrome are all on trend and will continue to be important to any outdoor design in future seasons.

Accessories

Accenting your other purchases and design choices with the perfect cushions or towels is the equivalent of wrapping your area up with a bow.

Green

Green is going to be the colour of 2020 and beyond, look to incorporate plants and accessories with greens. It’s oxygenating and natural. Look to match trend colours with matching pastels and sharp blacks and clean whites.

Wooden decking & concrete pavers

Gone are the days of choosing between wood and concrete for your outdoor flooring – you’ve got to have both. It’s a great way to define zones and create clean, clean lines.

Comfort is King

Your outdoor space should be comfortable and whilst this is the last note on the list, it should be at the front of mind through any process.
