How to design a garden environment? If you’ve spent time in the hospitality industry, it’s probably not the first time you’ve asked this question. Actually, whenever a change needs to be made on the outside, this question comes up first. Although there is no single way to create outdoor living, you can follow some garden design ideas to have an attractive setting.
As a hospitality furniture company, we feel it is our duty to share with you and our customers some garden design ideas to welcome guests in a welcoming way. So take notes and consider using these 4 trends:
Embracing vertical gardening
When designing the exterior, restaurants, hotels and resorts mainly focus on horizontal space by carefully choosing outdoor furniture and drawing up a plan for the setting. However, what is often forgotten is the decoration of the vertical space of the garden or patio. Most gardens contain plants, flowers, and statues, but forget about adding a special vertical touch. A good addition would be the Greens collection from outdoor furniture brand Maiori. The greens are potted with a simple drip irrigation system that allows water to flow from top to bottom, eliminating water vanes and overwatering.
Create a semi-enclosed outdoor living room
What good is taking care of your garden and designing your patio if you are not going to receive guests outdoors? A trend to follow is to create a semi-enclosed exterior room with 3 walls and a roof. This area will include restaurant tables and chairs, or outdoor hotel furniture to create a unique experience. The secret recipe for building an inviting space is to maintain the feeling of an outdoor area for guests to enjoy the beautiful weather.
Install a garden pergola
Another trend to receive guests outdoors is to install a pergola in the middle of the garden. This feature allows visitors to sit, eat or relax on the outdoor furniture while being protected from direct sunlight. The pergola can be made of wood or, for a more luxurious style, aluminum. For example, Jardinico presents Attitude, an outdoor umbrella that is used as a gazebo.
Mixing the new and the old in the garden.
Unless the theme of your business is to give a classic look using antique-looking furniture, it’s time to start combining different approaches. After talking about mixing and matching different materials and styles in a previous article, now is the time to combine old and new outdoor furniture. The only rule here is to smoothly pair the two styles, as some elements may not go well together.
To bring these garden design ideas to life, it would be wise to enlist the help of a hospitality furniture company who can help you with proper planning. Companies can overlook a lot of details, while still being an important aspect for any outdoor furniture supplier.
