For those of us happily ensconced in southern Spain, outdoor space is as big a part of our everyday lifestyles as the indoor areas. Terrace and gardens tend to be seamless extensions to the interior of the contemporary open-plan home, and outdoor entertaining can often extend from mornings around the pool, to lunch under a pergola, and evenings chilling out in the garden or on the patio. So this area needs to be comfortable, cosy and convenient, and the furniture and accessories chic and cool. Here we feature some of the latest products and trends on the market: both practical and stylish.
