1. Assess your outdoor space
Evaluate the available space in your outdoor area. Consider the dimensions, layout, and architectural features that may influence your furniture choices.
Take note of areas that have more sunlight or shade to help determine the most suitable furniture placement.
2. Define your needs and preferences
Determine how you intend to use your outdoor space during the summer. Do you need an alfresco dining area? Or a cosy lounge space, or a combination of both? Understanding your requirements will guide you in selecting the right furniture pieces and how they can co-exist.

3. Choose your style
Explore the Gandia Blasco, Diabla, and GAN collections. These reputable brands offer various outdoor furniture designs that cater to different styles and preferences. Browse through their collections, paying attention to the materials used, colours, and overall aesthetics.
4. Choose durable and weather-resistant materials
Since outdoor furniture will be exposed to the elements, selecting materials that can withstand the weather is essential. Gandia Blasco, Diabla and GAN often use materials like teak, aluminium, stainless steel, synthetic wicker and outdoor-rated fabrics, known for their durability and weather resistance.
5. Consider comfort and functionality
Comfort is critical when selecting outdoor furniture. Look for ergonomic designs with cushions or padding to ensure a pleasant seating experience. Additionally, consider the functionality of the furniture, such as stackable chairs for easy storage or extendable tables for accommodating more guests.

6. Mix and match
Feel free to combine furniture from the three brands to create a unique and personalised outdoor space. Incorporating various styles and materials can add depth and personality to your outdoor area.
7. Optimise space with multifunctional pieces
Consider multifunctional furniture if you have a small outdoor area. For example, some ottomans can be used as side tables, coffee tables, or storage benches for seating. This approach maximises space while providing versatility.

8. Coordinate with accessories
Consider coordinating accessories such as outdoor rugs, cushions, and throw pillows to complete your outdoor space. GAN offers a wide range of stylish outdoor rugs that enhance the ambience and tie the furniture together.
9. Consider storage and protection
Invest in outdoor furniture covers or storage solutions to protect your furniture during harsh weather conditions or when unused. Proper storage can extend the lifespan of your furniture and keep it looking new for many summers to come.
10. Prioritise quality
Investing in high-quality outdoor furniture from Gandia Blasco, Diabla and GAN ensures that your pieces will last for years and maintain their beauty despite exposure to the elements.
