Probing the material platter for outdoor furniture

Materials are the ultimate tool to sophistication and contentment. When the stakeholder purchases a piece of furniture, he is bound to experience various emotions based on the material proclaimed. The same is true for a varied palette of applications like aesthetics, the devised interior style, climate, budget and comfort, where the selection of materials plays a very important role.

Towards the end of the cycle, good furniture is not only the one that lasts, but also treats visually. Hence, careful selection of beautiful, yet enduring materials is the need of the hour. If your space waves with the modern vintage or fusion vibe and is ready to rock some sea salt with nautical, opt in for the delicacy of fine steel or aluminum, and choose the simplicity of wood when you feel the need to embrace neutrality. As against this, if you have just finished construction and are short of money, you can go the budget-friendly way with vinyl or pre-engineered wood for your indoor furniture. Thus, we can safely conclude that material options are endless, but just require a little consideration to work smoothly. In this blog, let us discuss the material palette available to craft masterpieces in indoor and outdoor furniture design.

1- Teak.

Formerly golden brown and aging to a beautiful grey palette, teak wood is the foremost choice for long lasting yet aesthetic outdoor furniture that sets the bench mark against all forms of unfavorable weather conditions and humidity. Gracefully resisting insects and fungi attack, teak is a must for impeccable, opulent furniture that is sure to leave heads turning.

2-Synthetic resin.

Long lasting and light-weight, synthetic resin furniture does not require the stakeholder running after it, in order to protect it from the sun, wind and rain. Conventionally, synthetic resin furniture is sub-divided into resin wicker, nylon, polyethylene and PVC furniture, all of which bestows strength and functionality upon the end-user.

3-High compressed, moulded plastics.

For a Zen designed theme that gulps down creativity and a futuristic approach, prefer high-grade polyethylene and polypropylene furniture that is not only easily maintained, but offers a plethora of colors and designs, some even with colour changing LEDs.

4-Aluminum.

Aluminum is the most flexible material for outdoor furniture – that which can be carved easily in a variety of forms and shapes. Not only does the light weight and endurance of pure aluminum make it a cost-effective option, but the thin sections available wind in beautifully to sculpt any furniture style you desire.
