The whole point is to create a welcoming space, often with an element of wonder, which pushes out the walls of the house, takes you on flights of fancy and becomes your happy place. From spring to autumn, nothing beats coming together around a brazier.

They not only provide shade, but also create an atmosphere, while the premium ranges even guarantee protection against UV, heat, light and even the weather thanks to the special coating. Roller blinds are fully automated and remote-controlled.

The sustainability of a piece of furniture depends on its life cycle, its lifetime and the subsequent processing of its waste. Most of its components should be reusable. Today, the use of recycled and recyclable materials is more than just a trend, it has become a necessity. Labelled wood comes from controlled logging in reforested areas. Untreated wood (Gommaire) plays with the beauty of natural patinas. Aluminium can be treated to increase its strength and durability in various weather conditions. When it comes to rugs, recycled polyethylene fibres, for example, are as soft as cotton, making them pleasant to the touch without running the risk of detracting from the aesthetic. New, environmentally-friendly fibres are constantly being sought, such as econyl and seasilk at Limited Edition. The advanced fabrics used for the cushion covers are made of water-repellent, UV-resistant polyester and are mass-coloured to preserve their colours and thus their durability.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_10930\" style=\"width: 685px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10930\" class=\"center wp-image-10930 size-full\" title=\"VILLAS Decoration Outdoor\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/OD_FLEXFORM_Parker-Outdoor.jpg\" alt=\"VILLAS Decoration Outdoor\" width=\"675\" height=\"900\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-10930\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">FLEXFORM, Parker, design Antonio Citterio &#8211; flexform.it<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_10933\" style=\"width: 910px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10933\" class=\"center wp-image-10933 size-full\" title=\"VILLAS Decoration Outdoor\" src=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/OD_MANUTTI_Collection-Sandua.jpg\" alt=\"VILLAS Decoration Outdoor\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/OD_MANUTTI_Collection-Sandua.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.villasdecoration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/OD_MANUTTI_Collection-Sandua-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-10933\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u00a9IsaacIchou<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Untreated wood (<a href=\"https:\/\/gommaire.com\/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI98XLvdOw_gIVoZBoCR2rogKGEAAYASAAEgLhX_D_BwE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Gommaire<\/a>) plays with the beauty of natural patinas.
