What kind of furniture is best for outdoors?
Look for hard-wearing materials and finishes for your outdoor furniture, such as natural wood, synthetic rattan and wicker, aluminium and steel. Keep your outdoor furniture in mint condition by ensuring it's regularly cleaned with a mild soap solution, and you should be able to enjoy it for years to come.
What is a good seat height for outdoor furniture?
The standard height for comfortable outdoor seating is usually around 45cm, but this is dependant on the height of your table. If you're choosing outdoor chairs for a bar table, you'll want seats or stools that are significantly higher, at around 75cm.
