THE GARDEN EDIT
As our gardens become more than just a backdrop to our homes, evolving into sanctuaries, dining rooms, social spaces, and places to unwind, the art of outdoor living has never felt more essential. No longer confined to the warmer months, outdoor spaces are increasingly viewed as year-round extensions of our interiors—designed with just as much care, personality, and style.
In this special edit, we’ve curated a collection of garden accessories and design pieces we’re currently swooning over. Each item has been carefully chosen to help you transform your garden into a space that feels just as layered, lived-in, and luxurious as your interiors. Whether you’re creating a quiet corner for coffee and contemplation or a statement zone for alfresco entertaining, these thoughtful touches will help elevate your space.

Designing a Seamless Indoor-Outdoor Flow
The key to great outdoor design lies in cohesion. By blurring the boundaries between inside and out, you create a sense of continuity that feels considered and calm. Start with tactile materials and sculptural silhouettes that mirror your interior scheme—think wood, stone, soft linen, and muted metals. The Wunder Outdoor Fire Pit in Corten Steel by Soho Home, for example, brings a rustic, sculptural warmth to any garden or patio. Its minimalist design makes it both a focal point and a practical source of heat and atmosphere, helping you extend your time outdoors well beyond sunset.
Lighting That Enhances Mood and Ambience
Lighting plays a crucial role in setting the tone for outdoor living. From gentle glow to sculptural statements, the right lighting can turn even the smallest courtyard into an inviting retreat. We love the Brokis Knot Battery Lamp, which blends modern elegance with portability, perfect for garden gatherings that drift into evening. Its handblown glass and tactile rope detail add artisanal charm that feels right at home in any outdoor setting.
The Power of Portable Sound and Style
No outdoor experience is complete without sound—whether it’s your favourite playlist or a podcast played softly in the background. The Devialet Mania Opéra de Paris wireless speaker is a standout, combining high-performance audio with striking visual appeal. Designed with luxury in mind, it’s as much an objet d’art as it is a sound system.
Tactile Textiles and Thoughtful Details
To really bring comfort outdoors, layer in soft textiles and thoughtful accents. The Double Face Lambswool Throw and Basketweave Cushion by Johnstons of Elgin introduce tactile warmth and colour, ideal for chilly evenings or simply adding a cosy finishing touch to your seating area. Pair with the Dior Breakfast Tray for relaxed outdoor dining and the Andrew Martin Lucca Side Table to keep drinks and books close at hand.
Whether you’re redesigning a sprawling garden or upgrading a compact terrace, these pieces invite you to embrace outdoor living with intention and elegance—whatever the season.
