Summer Entertaining, Your Way
Summer brings a natural ease to hosting. The days linger, conversations unfold without urgency, and gathering feels less like an occasion and more like a way of living.
This season, our clients are embracing a more intentional approach to entertaining - investing in outdoor furniture that supports long lunches, unhurried evenings, and moments that extend well past sunset. Spaces are designed to feel open and generous, ready to welcome guests at any time, without preparation or performance. It’s hosting on your own terms: relaxed, refined, and created to be enjoyed again and again.
Getting Your Home Ready
There’s a particular confidence in shaping your home before the invitations go out. A new outdoor sofa that invites long afternoons rather than formal gatherings. A dining table that makes spontaneous lunches feel easy instead of rare.
When considering your outdoor space, sometimes it’s one hero piece that quietly changes everything. The Architect Outdoor Swivel Chair has that effortless charm, the kind of seat guests naturally gravitate toward because it feels relaxed without trying. The Navagio Outdoor Curved Sofa does something similar, but on a larger scale, organically shaping the space so conversations naturally flow around it. It’s amazing how one well-chosen piece can make entertaining feel less like a production and more like a pleasure.
For many of our clients, that’s the real luxury now: outdoor furniture that supports how they live, and offers fresh entertaining inspiration every time they step outside. When the foundation is right, the season feels calmer, more personal, and distinctly your own.
Details That Complete the Mood
Not every investment needs to be a grand gesture. Often, smaller décor pieces can bring an entire outdoor space together.
A sculptural vessel that anchors the coffee table. Coasters that bring a sense of occasion to a simple drink. An indoor-outdoor rug that grounds the setting and softens the experience underfoot. These pieces add dimension without demanding a full rethink.
A Summer That Unfolds Poolside
Summer entertaining finds its rhythm by the pool. Bare feet on warm stone, the easy movement between water and shade, conversations drifting in and out as the day stretches on. Hosting doesn’t need structure here - it simply happens.
This is where considered outdoor furniture makes all the difference. Side tables that float effortlessly between loungers, ready for a cold drink, a book, or a shared plate. Extra seating pulled closer as the afternoon settles into evening. Lanterns repositioned as the light softens and the pool begins to glow.
Pieces like the Malmo Outdoor Sunlounge, designed to move seamlessly from poolside to a shaded retreat, or the Culver Outdoor Side Table, light enough to follow the gathering as it shifts from sun to shade. These are the quiet enablers of summer - durable, functional, and designed to support the way poolside entertaining naturally unfolds.
Hosting Yourself First
At the centre of it all is a simple truth: summer entertaining only feels generous when you feel held by the space. A sunlounge positioned for your favourite light. A sculptural side table that holds your morning espresso or evening spritz. An outdoor sofa that turns even a quiet night into a moment worth savouring.
You know your own rhythms better than anyone else, so it’s time to start investing in yourself accordingly. Because life is too layered, too rich, too wonderfully full to wait for someone else to create your comfort for you.
