The great outdoors are firmly entrenched in our lifestyle. Immersing ourselves in nature, especially during the warmer months, is well regarded for boosting mood – amid a long list of other benefits.
Whether relaxing poolside or leafing the weekend paper in the garden, our outdoor areas have become a natural extension of our homes. Yet, with sunshine, dust and varying climates, how can we extend the same elegance, comfort and durability of our indoor furniture outside?
Enlisting the expertise of KING and their five decades of furniture innovation and manufacturing, Est curates an elegant yet robust furniture edit.
With advanced weather-resistant technology, and quick-dry, breathable, UV-stable materials, KING combines their timeless design with the ability to withstand harsh Australian conditions.
Adding resort-style sophistication, the King Cove Reclining Sun Lounge wrapped in high-performance fabric offers UV stability, fade and mildew resistance.
A side table like the Oasis Outdoor Waterfall Pedestal with its ceramic top and weather-resistant material base delivers an ideal beverage or book stand. At the same time, the sculptural simplicity of the Lode Ottomans – available in two sizes and a plethora of fabric colours – allows for an adaptive outdoor setting.
An outdoor living or dining area can transform a home’s overall footprint – establishing a multi-purpose zone ideal for family evenings by the fireplace or gatherings with larger groups.
Translating indoor comfort outside, the contemporary Zaza Outdoor Sofa anchors any space with its deep seats and flexible arms. Bespoke high-performance, UV-stable fabrics combined with a ten-year frame warranty only enhance its appeal.
The Luna Outdoor Occasional Chair complements the space with its unique sculptural contours, premium powder-coated steel mesh frame and sink-in comfort.
White-coloured fabric, once reserved only for indoor furnishings, creates a striking contrast among the outdoor brickwork, stone and flora.
KING high-performance fabric as seen wrapped around the award-winning Zaza Outdoor Sofa is backed by a five-year warranty and highly engineered to withstand UV fade, mildew and water. Covers can be removed for professional cleaning or can be replaced for a fresh new look.
When space is limited, a high table paired with bar stools lends comfort and sophistication.
The Quay Outdoor Soft Counter Stools combine a unique KingCote elegant steel frame with their high-performance custom outdoor fabrics to present an additional level of relaxation.
In another corner, the Luna Outdoor Chairs are nestled around an Oasis Outdoor Coffee Ottoman to maximise those smaller garden nooks – ideal for a quiet retreat or to share an afternoon martini with friends.
Providing a refreshing alternative to traditional outdoor furniture, the Lode Outdoor Ottoman’s sculptural form serves as a seat or footrest. Its lightweight appeal allows it to be effortlessly moved to suit the home’s garden, pool or paved spaces.
