Designing a large garden

Explore inspiration and tips for designing a large garden.

Having a spacious outdoor area is delightful. A place where you can dine outdoors in spring and summer, and where children have plenty of space to play. And what’s cozier than enjoying a glass of mulled wine by a crackling fire in the fall? Do you have a large garden but do you find it challenging to furnish it properly? Don't worry, we're happy to give you some tips on turning your large garden into a stylish outdoor space.

Stylishly furnishing your large garden in 3 steps

A garden is considered a medium to large garden starting at 250 m2. With such a large piece of land, you can create something beautiful, but it requires some effort. Before you start furnishing, it's important to decide how much time and energy you want to dedicate to maintaining your garden. A large garden is fantastic but also involves quite a bit of work. Think about how you'll use the garden the most. Will there be children playing, or will it be a relaxing place to unwind? And how many people do you want to accommodate for dining or lounging? Once you've answered these questions for yourself, you can get started on the layout.

Play with height
Introducing variations in height in your garden creates a vibrant atmosphere. Variation can be created by varying the height of your plants, placing your patio on a raised platform or letting your lawn slope. Or what about a sunken seating area with comfortable lounge chairs and a cozy gas fire table?
Divide your garden into zones
It can sometimes be challenging to furnish a large garden. Dividing your garden into different zones can be a great solution. This way, you won't get bored quickly, and your garden will seem even larger and there will always be access to sunny and shady spots. You can use a garden screen or taller vegetation as a partition.
Integrate water
A pool or pond can complete your large garden. A pool, for a swim on warm days, and for your (grand)children to play in. If you choose a pond, you can make it extra charming by adding a fountain and fish. If you’re looking for something in between, try a swimming pond which allows you to plant flowers and swim!

Choosing garden furniture for your large garden

Before you start looking for new garden furniture, start by thinking about how you want to use your new patio. How many people will be hanging out there? Do you prefer some privacy? Are you all about shade or do you also want to soak up some sun? Measure your different patio areas so you know how much room you have to work with.

Then, get creative with how you set up each space. Place your garden set where it's shady and your sunbeds where it's sunny. That way, you're making the most of all of your outdoor spaces.

Comfortable, large lounge set

A fantastic lounge set for a large garden is the luxurious 'Fitz Roy'. With this set, you have the choice of various configurations, colors, and materials. Opt for low-maintenance aluminum or warm teakwood. The Fitz Roy comes with convenient side tables, ensuring your drink is always within reach. Enjoy summer evenings with the family in the corner sofa setup, while the chaise setup is perfect for pure relaxation.

To complete the picture, add stylish garden accessories like decorative cushions. Opt for the 65x45 cm size for this large lounge set. These cushions have the same shape as the back cushions and are delightfully thick—perfect for placing behind your back for extra comfort.

Large garden set

Together with a large lounge set, a generous garden table is a must to complete the outdoor experience! Opt for a garden table around with at least eight garden chairs, so there's always enough space for everyone. The elegant Alavaro garden table, combined with the stylish Lucy garden chairs, is like a match made in heaven for a large garden. This garden set offers plenty of space for a cozy dinner with friends or family. This garden set, just like the lounge set, can be mixed and matched to your taste.
