Outdoor Sofas & Lounges

About

An outdoor sofa is where your day slows down. It is the comfy spot to sit back and watch the afternoon drift by. For 40 years, we have helped Australian families find pieces that fit how they really live. Our outdoor sofas are built for the weather and easy to care for. They are ready for the long, easy afternoons you never want to end. How outdoor sofas differ from indoor ones An outdoor sofa is built to live outside, with frames, foams and fabrics made for the weather. An indoor sofa is not. Put one outdoors, and it soon struggles. Damp works into the cushions, and the sun fades the fabric. The frame is not made for the swing between hot days and cold nights. A sofa made for outside holds its shape and colour through an Australian summer. That is why our Melbourne design studio treats outdoor pieces as their own project. We choose weather-resistant materials from the start, instead of dressing up an indoor sofa in tougher fabric. How to pick an outdoor sofa for your space The right outdoor sofa comes down to your space, your seating needs and how you like to unwind outside. Get those right, and the rest is easy. A handful of things will steer you to the one that fits: Your space – Measure the area first so the sofa fits with room to move around it. Seating size – A 2 seater suits a balcony or courtyard, while a larger patio or deck can take a bigger lounge or a daybed. How you use it – Quiet afternoons need only a two- or three-seater, while hosting calls for extra lounge chairs. Flexibility – A modular sofa rearranges as your family grows or your plans change. Sun and shade – Note where the light falls so your spot stays comfy through the day. Once you have a shortlist, come and sit on your favourites in one of our stores across Australia, or shop the range online. To sort the whole look at once, an outdoor lounge set or our outdoor sofa sets pair a sofa with matching pieces. Which outdoor sofa materials suit the Australian climate?
