Many of the older generations have wonderful memories of running around outside, covered in mud, building forts and playing pretend among the magical plants and flowers. The newer generations are sadly spending far too much time in front of screens, a detriment to their health and development.

As the days lengthen and the weather warms up, the great outdoors beckon. A small outdoor space can still be big fun if paired with the perfect outdoor furniture. Our Heritage Balcony set is compact without compromising on comfort. It’s perfect for a small balcony, the dappled shade cast by your favourite tree, or that awkward space between the pool and a boundary wall.

Outdoor living areas are all the rage in a country that shines in the summer months and what better way to make the most of the long, sunny days than with an outdoor bar. It seems to be the thing to do, basking in the summer, sipping ice cold drinks and catching up with good friends. Even established venues know the lure of an outdoor bar area, big or small, for almost any event. We’re here to help you set up your very own stylish outdoor bar, in your very own back yard.

Hammocks originated in Central and South America, namely with the Maya of Mesoamerica and the Taino people of the Bahamas who used them for sleeping. These beds were practical in that it kept them off the cold ground and away from poisonous snakes, insects and other pests as well as providing safety from the spreading of diseases.

Summer is nearly in full swing and there is nothing quite like a fun dip in some water to cool off! Whether you are a parent or not, it’s always wise to keep water safety in mind. As many as 600 children die by drowning every year and nearly 7 times that are treated for nonfatal submersion injuries. By wising up on water safety we could perhaps save a life and, as a parent, enjoy the cool water with reassurance that our kiddies are that little bit safer.

With Summer in full swing, finding shade and coolth requires a little help from another source. The elements can hamper festivities, especially when they are planned outside. Blinds have become invaluable, providing extended lie-ins on bright Summer mornings, and offering privacy in exposed areas.

The festive season is upon us, and what better time to spend it entertaining and celebrating with those you love most. The holidays call not only for fun and adventure, but for sharing scrumptious meals together in relaxing and comfortable environments. Our outdoor furniture ranges provide you with the optimum setting, and now we will provide you with the optimum food to serve and share with your guests.

When it comes to following trends, seating is not always the first thought that comes to mind, but vintage seating is making a comeback in a big way. Gone are plastic chairs and gaudy seats. In are timeless masterpieces that provided generations before us with endless comfort.

Imagine putting your feet up and melting into the corner sofa, an ice cold drink in one hand, the aroma of a good braai in the air, surrounded by family and friends, the tinkle of laughter in the air. Nothing adds a bit of class more than a wicker frame corner sofa set with enough space for all your guests to relax.
