OUTSIDE TAKE IT

Get your garden guest-ready for summer with stylish new outdoor furniture from Next Home

-

There’s no time like the present to get ready to welcome your nearest and dearest for those long-awaited summer garden soirées. If you need some extra seating or simply fancy a refresh, then Next Home’s new garden collection, Helsinki is just the thing to give your space a fresh makeover.

CONTEMPORA­RY VIBE

This fabulous range of Scandi-inspired furniture and accessorie­s is perfect for entertaini­ng, or for unwinding and relaxing on your own in the sunshine, whether you have a garden, terrace or balcony. All the pieces have a striking signature look – rattan rope-style frame with wood effect legs – and are available in three colourways: Natural, Black and Light Grey. The large five-piece living set (£775), with double sofa, side table, coffee table and two matching armchairs, not only looks stunning, but boasts showerproo­f seats and cushions, making it an excellent choice for our not-so-trusty British weather. It also comes as a smaller three-piece version (£350) if you don’t have space for the sofa. Team it with the solar floor lamp/side table (£99) in Natural or Black, and let the gathering continue long into the evening.

RAIN OR SHINE

If you’re planning on a little alfresco dining, then the stylish corner dining set (£1,099) with L-shaped sofa, table and two stools is ideal. Comfy cushions add a cosy vibe, while the table enhances the classic Scandi feel. It’s roomy enough for eight guests, and with weatherres­istant fabric, you can trust it will last through the season – just cover it or

store it in a dry place in bad weather. If space is at a premium, pick the chic three-piece bistro set with two chairs and a low table (£350) – it’ll create a lovely spot to enjoy coffee with a friend.

TIME TO RELAX

Want to curl up with a good book? Go for the Helsinki chair (£375), with its squishy, cocooning cushions and oval shape for instant contempora­ry style. And if you fancy a bit of sunbathing, choose the stylish Helsinki lounger (£299), which comes with two scatter cushions. Or for something a little different, opt for the rocking chair with footstool (£299) to bring a touch of contempora­ry class to your garden.

LITTLE EXTRAS

Don’t worry about breakages while eating alfresco with Next Home’s range of polka-dot melamine picnicware; it’s shatterpro­of and looks like real crockery. And, with so many other garden accessorie­s available at Next Home, from solar lighting to rugs and cushions, you’ll find the perfect finishing touches.
