MIX & MINGLE

It’s hot and the sun is shining. Celebrate with a setting where colours and furniture match the mood, but not necessaril­y each other.

It’s hot and sunny. Celebrate with colours and furniture that match the mood, but not each other.

The New Mixology

A HAPPY, CAREFREE MIX OF DISHES AND FURNITURE CAPTURES THE RELAXED VIBE OF SUMMERTIME ENTERTAINI­NG. MISMATCHED BUT COORDINATI­NG DECOR ISN’T ONLY OKAY, IT’S ALSO MORE VISUALLY COMPELLING. FINISH OFF WITH A BOLDLY PATTERNED COLOURFUL CARPET OF A STURDY OUTDOOR MATERIAL THAT WITHSTANDS SUN AND RAIN.

Happy Hour

SIMPLICITY IS THE KEY TO SUCCESS – AND TO A HAPPY HOST – IN OUTDOOR SETTINGS. MIXING TEXTURES AND COLOURS SHOWS A RELAXED ATTITUDE TO DECOR AND ENTERTAINI­NG.
