Party time: 6 ideas to furnish the outside for summer cocktails and parties
The design of the outdoor space must take into account how the area will be used. In particular, if the idea is to take advantage of the summer season to organize convivial moments, the furnishings must be chosen accordingly. What does this actually mean? It means identifying elements that are functional but not only, because the outdoor furnishings, designed for our summer parties, also become a pretext for conversation and suggest new ways to be together. Chaise longue, maxi floor cushions, sculpture armchairs, super comfortable beds are just some possible solutions to interpret the spirit of summer parties and at the same time enhance the outdoor space in the eyes of our guests.
: the pouf by for comfortable and easy to move seats
Let's think of a typical scenario of a summer party: guests start chatting and gathering in small groups, the desire to sit down to continue the conversation and therefore the need to have seats to move easily. Paola Lenti's Picot poufs are perfect (on the cover): comfortable and with small dimensions, characterized by the intertwining of Rope rope which is handmade by traditional techniques. In addition, the available color palette is enchanting, fun to combine and easy to integrate with other furnishing elements.
by for : the modular sofa to create customized conversation corners
It is almost always necessary to change the layout of the garden during a party: for example to make room for new elements or to let people move freely. This is why it is useful to choose a modular system for the living room corner, such as Sealine, designed by Jean-Marie Massaud for Dedon. The collection consists of various modular elements that can be combined with each other to create customized solutions. The teak structure and the braided rope backs create an immediately holiday atmosphere.
by for and Garden Layers by for : the alternative sessions that trigger the conversation
The light atmosphere of a summer party is perfect for suggesting new ways of conversation and offering unusual seats. Furnishings that catch the eye and invite experimentation. Sculpture seats such as Konstantin Grcici's Sam Son for Magis, conceived as a hybrid suitable both inside and outside, can be seated with sinuous and unexpected shapes to the point of making us think "I want to try to sit down". And this armchair that seems to come out of a comic strip is of course also comfortable, with the large tubular that serves as both a backrest and an armrest and the seat that seems suspended: it will surely be talked about. And the same goes for the Garden Layers collection by Patricia Urquiola for Gan which relaunch an ancient way of making a living room: not on classic sofas but on carpet-futons and comfortable cushions, covered in fabrics with an impeccable chromatic composition. Designed inspired by Indian rugs and handmade, they are decorative and will arouse the amazement and fun of the guests.

Finally, let's not forget to give the right momentum of style to the area dedicated to food and drinks. Jelly is the table service designed by Patricia Urquiola for Kartell: the appearance, as the name suggests, recalls that of jellies, thanks to the technological capacity of very sophisticated molds used by the company to give shape to the designer's idea. The result is enchanting and fun. Rondo, on the other hand, is the indispensable copper bucket to keep the precious bottles that we have reserved for our guests cool.
