Fresh With A Touch Of Cozy – The Garden Bench

When you’re sitting in the garden, relaxing, somehow a chair or a daybed just don’t seem quite right. Something else would be better out here. The garden bench is the choice you’re looking for. Simple, casual and versatile, the garden bench can come in a variety of forms and can have a multitude of interesting designs.


Most often, garden benches are accompanied by fire pits or outdoor fireplaces

They are complemented by chairs when extra seating is needed

A lot of designs are envisioned as extensions or parts of hybrid combinations

Sometimes a garden bench is supported by planters on either side

Other times it’s conceived as a sectional that extends from a garden bed or planter

Usually organic shapes and lines are preferred because they let the bench blend in

And when the shape doesn’t do it, the colors and materials take over that task

Some garden benches are basic and nothing more than just a simple, classic bench placed in a garden. Others are more complex, with designs inspired by nature as to better integrate in their settings, featuring irregular shapes and made of materials that let them blend in easily. In other cases, the garden bench is merely an extension or an accessory added to other features that naturally belong these such as planters or fountains.


Sometimes a simple, wooden bench is just what a small garden needs

Other times something a bit more complex and colorful is needed

Usually the goal is to make the bench look as if it belongs there

In contemporary gardens, simple, clean lines are preferred

It’s also popular in these cases to combine contrasting materials, colors and textures

And when you don’t have a garden, you can create your own on the patio

And that is done through a clever choice of materials such as stone or wood

It’s even possible to have a bench carved out from a large tree trunk

The main goal is almost always to have garden furniture that has as little impact on the landscape as possible. And since the garden bench is a primary element, designers have come up with all sorts of clever solutions over the years.
