IN STYLE OUTSIDE

“Outdoor spaces are essential for our well-being and are becoming an even more integrated part of our homes,” says Kalina Todorova, visual merchadising manager for BoConcept. She says the dominant trend in outdoor decor is multi-functionality. “Flexible seating arrangements allowing for easy reconfiguration, comfortable chaise lounges, easy-tomove-around tables and chairs are all important elements.” If you want the look of your outdoor space to last, Kalina advises choosing neutral hues on big pieces like sofas, then layering in bold colours, as well as investing in good quality furniture in timeless designs. Since BoConcept was founded in Denmark, it’s no surprise hygge is key for Kalina, who says, “Candlelight, cozy pillows and blankets, beautiful pots and vases, functional trays, all play a roll in making time outdoors more personal and special.” We couldn’t agree more.
