Whether comfortable lounge chairs, modern garden chairs, stylish garden benches, comfortable sun loungers, cosy rocking chairs, practical stools, elegant outdoor sofas or relaxed deck chairs: there is the right seating for every outdoor space. So how do I choose the right seating for my outdoor area? Below you will find a few guiding questions to help you decide.

Outdoor seating for garden, terrace, balcony and pool areas

Outdoor seating is an essential part of any successful garden design. It creates comfort, invites you to linger and turns the terrace, garden, balcony or pool area into a homely open-air space. High-quality garden furniture and outdoor seating combine functionality, design and longevity. Particularly popular are weatherproof seating, easy-care outdoor furniture, modern lounge furniture and flexible seating groups that can be individually adapted to the available space and your personal style.

How would you like to use your seating?

If you are looking for a piece of furniture for relaxed moments alone or for two, armchairs or deckchairs can be ideal. Likewise, Lounge chairs, Rocking chairs, Sun loungers or Hammocks are an excellent choice if you want to create a cosy retreat in the garden or on the terrace. Sofas or garden benches suit sociable gatherings. Outdoor sofas, lounge seating, garden benches and seating groups in particular offer ample room for family, friends and guests.

Seating for relaxing, sunbathing and enjoyment

If relaxation is the main purpose of your outdoor space, comfortable seating and loungers are the way to go. Sun loungers, deckchairs, lounge chairs, hammocks and rocking chairs make for relaxed hours outdoors. A sun lounger is perfect for sunbathing by the pool or in the garden, while a rocking chair creates a particularly cosy atmosphere on the terrace. Lounge chairs and outdoor armchairs offer a high level of seating comfort and combine ideally with side tables, lounge tables or other garden furniture.

Seating for convivial hours outdoors

For shared meals, conversations or celebrations outdoors, garden chairs, garden benches, sofas and outdoor seating groups are especially practical. Garden chairs can be placed flexibly around garden tables and are ideal for dining areas on the terrace or balcony. Garden benches create a classic, inviting place to sit in the garden. Outdoor sofas and lounge furniture bring a homely ambience and turn the outdoor space into a meeting place for relaxed evenings.

How much space do you have for your seating?

Where space is limited, stools and footstools can offer a space-saving solution. Alternatively, garden chairs or slimmer armchairs may also fit. On smaller balconies and narrow terraces in particular, compact outdoor seating is especially sought after. Folding garden chairs, lightweight stools, space-saving deckchairs and slim lounge chairs can be used flexibly and easily moved or stowed away as needed.

Seating for small balconies and large terraces

Depending on the size of the outdoor space, different seating comes into consideration. For small balconies, compact garden chairs, stools, footstools, small armchairs or folding deck chairs are ideal. On large terraces, generous outdoor sofas, garden benches, sun loungers, lounge chairs and complete seating groups can be used. In the garden, different areas can be created – for example a dining area with garden chairs, a quiet corner with sun loungers or a lounge area with sofas and lounge chairs.

How much care does your seating piece require?

Plastic furniture is often easier to care for and needs only occasional cleaning, while wooden furniture requires more care and treatment. Seating in aluminium, stainless steel, polyrattan, rope or weatherproof outdoor fabrics is also very popular for outdoor use. Weatherproof seating should be robust, durable and easy to clean so it stays looking good over time. Care requirements, appearance and possible uses vary depending on the material.

Weatherproof outdoor seating and easy-care garden furniture

Weatherproof outdoor seating is a particularly good choice for the garden, terrace and balcony. Materials such as aluminium, teak, polyrattan, plastic, stainless steel and outdoor fabrics are hard-wearing and ideally suited to use outdoors. Seating with weatherproof cushions, UV-resistant covers and easy-care surfaces offers additional comfort and is especially practical for everyday use. With matching protective covers and regular cleaning, garden chairs, lounge chairs, sofas, sun loungers and rocking chairs stay attractive for a long time.

Would you like additional functions?

Adjustable backrests for greater flexibility or integrated storage can be helpful features. Be clear in advance about which functions you need. Adjustable backrests, armrests, castors and folding frames are particularly popular on sun loungers, deck chairs and lounge chairs. Stools and footstools can offer additional comfort while doubling as a flexible surface or an extra seat.

Functional seating for greater outdoor comfort

Modern outdoor seating often offers practical additional functions that increase comfort in the garden or on the terrace. Stackable garden chairs can be stored to save space, folding deck chairs can be used flexibly, and sun loungers with wheels are easy to move around. Lounge chairs with cushions, garden benches with storage or sofas with modular elements combine comfort and functionality. This way you will find exactly the seating that suits your daily life, your outdoor space and your personal style.

Buying seating: what should you look out for?

If you are looking to buy outdoor seating, you should pay attention to quality, comfort, material, dimensions and design. The right outdoor seating should be comfortable, visually suit your outdoor space and serve its intended purpose. For relaxed hours, lounge chairs, rocking chairs, sun loungers and deck chairs are ideal. For sociable gatherings, garden chairs, garden benches, sofas and seating groups are the perfect choice. Stools and footstools complement existing garden furniture and add extra flexibility.
