Furnishing a Terrace or Garden as an Outdoor Room

The Archalign Journal · Outdoor Living
The best gardens are furnished like rooms, not scattered with patio sets. Treat the outside as another space to compose.
01A room without walls
Define the space before you fill it: a rug that survives weather, a clear centre, a reason to sit. A terrace needs composition as much as any interior.
02Materials that age well
Sun and rain are honest critics. Choose teak, powder-coated metal, all-weather weave — materials that earn a patina rather than simply fading.

03Light it to be used
A garden used only in daylight is half a garden. A few warm lights extend the evening and make the space an invitation after dark.
