From sleek cityscapes to breezy beach-side retreats, embrace Australian summer entertaining with Domayne’s contemporary new collection of outdoor furniture – as seen in our glossy new Summer Vibes magazine feature.

Love the sophisticated ‘Cube’ Outdoor Dining Table and chic ‘Cube’ Handwoven Dining Chairs pictured above? Editor of Harper’s BAZAAR, Kellie Hush shares her insight into this summer’s alfresco trends:
“This season’s hottest runway looks translate easily to outdoor spaces. Bold hits of colour lend a sporty feel, while all-while suites keep things clean and chic. Eye-catching monochromatic prints add interest and were also big on the runway, along with ’70s styling – woven textures and rattan are just the thing to evoke this era.”

What could be nicer than enjoying a balmy evening on the deck around the double-woven synthetic wicker ‘Riveria’ 5-Piece Round Outdoor Setting (pictured above)?
Editor of Gourmet Traveller, Anthea Loucas shares her tips on outdoor entertaining this season:
“Naturally, summer entertaining is all about dining al fresco. With the warmer weather coming on, now’s the time to take stock of your outdoor dining space and think about what’s going to make it sing in the coming months. Time to invest in a new barbie? Dream about installing a wood-fired oven? Plant out fresh herbs? Update the outdoor dining table and chairs? And, of course, perfect the art of making excellent Americanos.”

No matter if your dwelling is urban, country or coastal – create a luxe retreat with the sleek lines and modern profile of the ‘Pontoon’ Outdoor Modular Sofa, Coffee Table, Ottoman and more.
Editor of House & Garden, Lisa Green shares her thoughts on the importance of creating a functional and stylish outdoor area:
“Garden rooms and outdoor entertaining areas are more popular than ever – a well-maintained space can be used year-round and even has the potential to increase the value of your home. This season, be inspired to revamp your outdoor space with a fresh new look: look to sculptural yet comfortable furniture and settle in to enjoy an alfresco summer.”

No matter if your abode is situated by the sea, city, suburbs or in a rural environment – our new season nautical style is perfectly at home in any setting.

Make a splash this summer with a refined palette that showcases a spectacular range of beautiful blue hues – uplifting aqua, teal, cobalt, classic navy and chic denim. While red has strictly no business intruding on this exclusive new-nautical trend, a clean backdrop of crisp whites and elegant creams is essential. Pair back with soft greys and natural textures – such as linen, rustic timber, bamboo, wicker and seagrass – to really give this coastal chic look some (ahem) depth. Accessorise with rounded mirrors and clocks, coloured glassware and an array of patterned fabrics  – seaside-inspired graphics, polkadots, crosses and sailor stripes (of course).

Ready to get on-board with our nautical summer look? Browse our new season bedroom and outdoor galleries for inspiration:

The post Enjoy Resort-Style Living with Domayne’s Outdoor Collection appeared first on Domayne Style Insider.

“With our climate, it’s no surprise that Australians love outdoor entertaining, but it wasn’t that long ago that it consisted of little more than a weathered timber picnic table and some faded plastic chairs – and a barbecue, of course!

Now, our outdoor areas are central to the design of a home, and the décor and style of these spaces is every bit as important to us as those inside – and it makes sense given how much time we spend there. Where we once furnished our balconies, terraces and gardens as an afterthought, we now see them as an extension of our indoor living areas, and the pieces we choose complement the style we like indoors. Colours follow the interior fashion, styles are in line with trends, and gorgeous homewares, like cushions and candleholders, can be changed seasonally to play up the area.

There are two big changes that have changed the way we furnish our exterior spaces. Firstly, top-end designers have turned their talents outdoors, and this clever design has filtered down. So no longer do we have a choice of one table and matching chairs, we can mix and match and choose multipurpose pieces that stack, contain storage or can be used inside and out. The other advance is in the materials used – think all-weather resin wicker, marine-grade aluminium, powdercoated steel, PVC and in fabrics, solution-dyed acrylic. These materials are durable and no longer fade after a blistering summer.

So with barbecue season almost upon us, outdoor entertaining has never looked so good!”
Bianca Martin – Lifestyle Editor, Marie Claire.

Set the stage for a sensational summer of alfresco entertaining and lounging with Domayne’s new season outdoor furniture collection. Whether your outdoor space is an urban courtyard, poolside setting, leafy garden or modest balcony – give it a  summer lovin’ makeover with a stunning new modular or dining setting.

Here, we showcase our fave outdoor lust-haves from the gorgeous Summer Chic look book – as seen in Marie Claire, InStyle and Home Beautiful. To tempt you even further, spend $499 or more on ALL Outdoor Furniture and Indoor Dining from Domayne and receive BONUS Elderton Wines. Cheers!

The post Al Fresco Style: Domayne’s Fave 5 Outdoor Furniture Picks appeared first on Domayne Style Insider.

You’ve survived winter! But what about your outdoor living area? Could it do with a little TLC before the warm weather is upon us? Before you know it, it’ll be time to host backyard barbecue lunches, cocktails by the pool and dinner parties on the patio!

Never fear, the Domayne Outdoor Furniture Launch 2017 catalogue is out now and we’ve identified 7 key outdoor trends that will help you transform your al fresco area into an entertainer’s haven this summer.

1.   Greenery – Pantone Colour of the Year

Take a leaf out of nature’s book and go for greenery with a yellow-green hue that is evocative of tender young shoots that spring to life in September and October. Think gem-like peridot, golden kiwifruit, olive green and pretty pistachio, and make these lush shades shine against natural timber, marble, concrete and glass. While the best way to introduce greenery is through potted plants, vases and lanterns, don’t limit it to just decorator items. A statement-making furniture piece, such as an outdoor lounge with cushions upholstered in chartreuse will create a warm and welcoming ambience.

Our favourites include (as pictured above, clockwise):

• Piazza 2-Piece Outdoor Modular Lounge
• Succulent in Pot
• Cactus in Cement Pot
• Flat Echeveria in Marble-Look Pot
• African Agave in Pot
• Agave Mini Jar
• Dye Vase, Hurricane Vase and Lantern

2.   Wicker Meets Its Match

Wicker is a classic choice for outdoor furniture and has been a staple in Australian backyards for decades! The great thing about the availability of synthetic wicker these days is its weather-resistant properties and comfort-oriented construction, which makes it a popular choice in modern homes. This season, wicker sofas, modular lounges and dining chairs are paired with sealed fibreglass and stone powder table tops with an acacia timber base (such as the Azure) or a karri gum timber dining or coffee table in a light blonde finish (such as the Verena). This variation in material creates interest and makes for a more contemporary décor, rather than being too matchy-matchy.

Our favourites include (as pictured above, clockwise):

• Verena Outdoor Rectangular Dining Table
• Verena Outdoor Chair
• Azure Outdoor Round Dining Table
• Mississippi Outdoor Dining Chair
• Verena Outdoor Modular Lounge
• Verena Outdoor Square Coffee Table

3.   Indoor/Outdoor Oasis

Make the transition from indoors to the outside seamless and natural with outdoor furniture that’s been designed with indoor style and creature comforts in mind. Create a luxurious setting where you’ll want to linger over lunch with your nearest and dearest. Sleek aluminium frames with a glass overlay tabletop (such as the La Tavola) are right on trend, as are sealed fibreglass and cement frames (such as the Linear), sealed fibreglass and stone-powder tables (such as the Onyx) and cute tub and carver chairs (such as the Montpellier).

Our favourites include (as pictured above, clockwise):

• La Tavola Outdoor Rectangular Extension Dining Table
• La Tavola Outdoor Dining Chair
• Onyx Outdoor Rectangular Dining Table
• Onyx Dining Bench
• Montpellier Carver Chair
• Amara Outdoor Rectangular Extension Dining Table
• Amara Outdoor Padded Dining Chair
• Linea Outdoor Rectangular Dining Table
• Montpellier Tub Chair

4.   Block Colours

This summer is all about vibrant pops of colour in a rainbow palette. The addition of one or two bright furniture pieces will imbue a fun, fresh feel to your winter-weary outdoor area. Think bright sunloungers in zesty apple green (such as the Arcadia), an azure footstool (such as the Zed) or a tangerine-toned compact table and chair setting for four (such as the Stax). If you’re still shying away from daring hues, why not try mixing and matching confident colours in small doses (such as the Golf) with stable neutrals (such as the Trend dining table in white)?

Our favourites include (as pictured above, clockwise):

• Zed Set of 2 Outdoor Stools
• Stax Flip-Top Square Table
• Stax Aluminium Dining Chair
• Arcadia Sunlounger
• Golf Carver Chairs

5.   Floor Candy

Usually, the floor is an afterthought when renovating or updating any room, including the outdoors. Not this season, though! Outdoor rugs showcasing exciting prints and patterns in striking colourways are here to help you create a focal point in your al fresco area that will draw the eye and start a conversation!

Our favourites include (as pictured above, clockwise):

• Rio Outdoor Rug
• Copacabana Outdoor Rug in Multi
• Bronte Outdoor Rug
• Sunday Recycled PVC Rug
• Copacabana Outdoor Rug in Navy

6.   Cushion Corner

Fact of life: you can never have enough cushions – indoors or out! Not only are they great for resting your head on, leaning your back against or hugging when a coastal breeze hits, they are also a great way to incorporate colour and character into your decor and a cost-effective way to breathe new life into a stale space. This season is all about playful prints, solid colours and bright stripes balanced with hints of white and grey.

Our favourites include (as pictured above, clockwise):

• Bold Flamingo Cushion
• Striped Navy Outdoor Cushion
• Plain Piped Navy Outdoor Cushion
• Plain Piped Grey Outdoor Cushion
• Riviera Plain Yellow Outdoor Cushion
• Striped Red Outdoor Cushion
• Plain Piped Red Outdoor Cushion
• Striped Mint Outdoor Cushion
• Leaf Outdoor Cushion
• Plain Piped Green Outdoor Cushion

7.   Dynamic Decorators

No décor project would be complete without the addition of a few key decorator items to add personality to a space. Place either a dramatic individual piece against a clean backdrop or cluster a few similarly coloured items in varying heights to create a unique vignette. Our favourites include lanterns and candle holders in sunny yellow and sky blue, as well as vases and bottles with a ruby red and pale pink hue.

Our favourites include (as pictured above, clockwise):

• Escape Lantern
• Nomad Lantern
• Splash Candle Holder
• Berrie Treasure Bottle
• Ship Ahoy Bottle
• Dusty Lantern
• Garden Vase
• Country Lantern

From sleek cityscapes to breezy beach-side retreats, embrace Australian summer entertaining with Domayne’s contemporary new collection of outdoor furniture – as seen in our glossy new Summer Vibes magazine feature.

Love the sophisticated ‘Cube’ Outdoor Dining Table and chic ‘Cube’ Handwoven Dining Chairs pictured above? Editor of Harper’s BAZAAR, Kellie Hush shares her insight into this summer’s alfresco trends:
“This season’s hottest runway looks translate easily to outdoor spaces. Bold hits of colour lend a sporty feel, while all-while suites keep things clean and chic. Eye-catching monochromatic prints add interest and were also big on the runway, along with ’70s styling – woven textures and rattan are just the thing to evoke this era.”

What could be nicer than enjoying a balmy evening on the deck around the double-woven synthetic wicker ‘Riveria’ 5-Piece Round Outdoor Setting (pictured above)?
Editor of Gourmet Traveller, Anthea Loucas shares her tips on outdoor entertaining this season:
“Naturally, summer entertaining is all about dining al fresco. With the warmer weather coming on, now’s the time to take stock of your outdoor dining space and think about what’s going to make it sing in the coming months. Time to invest in a new barbie? Dream about installing a wood-fired oven? Plant out fresh herbs? Update the outdoor dining table and chairs? And, of course, perfect the art of making excellent Americanos.”

No matter if your dwelling is urban, country or coastal – create a luxe retreat with the sleek lines and modern profile of the ‘Pontoon’ Outdoor Modular Sofa, Coffee Table, Ottoman and more.
Editor of House & Garden, Lisa Green shares her thoughts on the importance of creating a functional and stylish outdoor area:
“Garden rooms and outdoor entertaining areas are more popular than ever – a well-maintained space can be used year-round and even has the potential to increase the value of your home. This season, be inspired to revamp your outdoor space with a fresh new look: look to sculptural yet comfortable furniture and settle in to enjoy an alfresco summer.”

No matter if your abode is situated by the sea, city, suburbs or in a rural environment – our new season nautical style is perfectly at home in any setting.

Make a splash this summer with a refined palette that showcases a spectacular range of beautiful blue hues – uplifting aqua, teal, cobalt, classic navy and chic denim. While red has strictly no business intruding on this exclusive new-nautical trend, a clean backdrop of crisp whites and elegant creams is essential. Pair back with soft greys and natural textures – such as linen, rustic timber, bamboo, wicker and seagrass – to really give this coastal chic look some (ahem) depth. Accessorise with rounded mirrors and clocks, coloured glassware and an array of patterned fabrics  – seaside-inspired graphics, polkadots, crosses and sailor stripes (of course).

Ready to get on-board with our nautical summer look? Browse our new season bedroom and outdoor galleries for inspiration:

The post Enjoy Resort-Style Living with Domayne’s Outdoor Collection appeared first on Domayne Style Insider.

“With our climate, it’s no surprise that Australians love outdoor entertaining, but it wasn’t that long ago that it consisted of little more than a weathered timber picnic table and some faded plastic chairs – and a barbecue, of course!

Now, our outdoor areas are central to the design of a home, and the décor and style of these spaces is every bit as important to us as those inside – and it makes sense given how much time we spend there. Where we once furnished our balconies, terraces and gardens as an afterthought, we now see them as an extension of our indoor living areas, and the pieces we choose complement the style we like indoors. Colours follow the interior fashion, styles are in line with trends, and gorgeous homewares, like cushions and candleholders, can be changed seasonally to play up the area.

There are two big changes that have changed the way we furnish our exterior spaces. Firstly, top-end designers have turned their talents outdoors, and this clever design has filtered down. So no longer do we have a choice of one table and matching chairs, we can mix and match and choose multipurpose pieces that stack, contain storage or can be used inside and out. The other advance is in the materials used – think all-weather resin wicker, marine-grade aluminium, powdercoated steel, PVC and in fabrics, solution-dyed acrylic. These materials are durable and no longer fade after a blistering summer.

So with barbecue season almost upon us, outdoor entertaining has never looked so good!”
Bianca Martin – Lifestyle Editor, Marie Claire.

Set the stage for a sensational summer of alfresco entertaining and lounging with Domayne’s new season outdoor furniture collection. Whether your outdoor space is an urban courtyard, poolside setting, leafy garden or modest balcony – give it a  summer lovin’ makeover with a stunning new modular or dining setting.

Here, we showcase our fave outdoor lust-haves from the gorgeous Summer Chic look book – as seen in Marie Claire, InStyle and Home Beautiful. To tempt you even further, spend $499 or more on ALL Outdoor Furniture and Indoor Dining from Domayne and receive BONUS Elderton Wines. Cheers!

The post Al Fresco Style: Domayne’s Fave 5 Outdoor Furniture Picks appeared first on Domayne Style Insider.

You’ve survived winter! But what about your outdoor living area? Could it do with a little TLC before the warm weather is upon us? Before you know it, it’ll be time to host backyard barbecue lunches, cocktails by the pool and dinner parties on the patio!

Never fear, the Domayne Outdoor Furniture Launch 2017 catalogue is out now and we’ve identified 7 key outdoor trends that will help you transform your al fresco area into an entertainer’s haven this summer.

1.   Greenery – Pantone Colour of the Year

Take a leaf out of nature’s book and go for greenery with a yellow-green hue that is evocative of tender young shoots that spring to life in September and October. Think gem-like peridot, golden kiwifruit, olive green and pretty pistachio, and make these lush shades shine against natural timber, marble, concrete and glass. While the best way to introduce greenery is through potted plants, vases and lanterns, don’t limit it to just decorator items. A statement-making furniture piece, such as an outdoor lounge with cushions upholstered in chartreuse will create a warm and welcoming ambience.

Our favourites include (as pictured above, clockwise):

• Piazza 2-Piece Outdoor Modular Lounge
• Succulent in Pot
• Cactus in Cement Pot
• Flat Echeveria in Marble-Look Pot
• African Agave in Pot
• Agave Mini Jar
• Dye Vase, Hurricane Vase and Lantern

2.   Wicker Meets Its Match

Wicker is a classic choice for outdoor furniture and has been a staple in Australian backyards for decades! The great thing about the availability of synthetic wicker these days is its weather-resistant properties and comfort-oriented construction, which makes it a popular choice in modern homes. This season, wicker sofas, modular lounges and dining chairs are paired with sealed fibreglass and stone powder table tops with an acacia timber base (such as the Azure) or a karri gum timber dining or coffee table in a light blonde finish (such as the Verena). This variation in material creates interest and makes for a more contemporary décor, rather than being too matchy-matchy.

Our favourites include (as pictured above, clockwise):

• Verena Outdoor Rectangular Dining Table
• Verena Outdoor Chair
• Azure Outdoor Round Dining Table
• Mississippi Outdoor Dining Chair
• Verena Outdoor Modular Lounge
• Verena Outdoor Square Coffee Table

3.   Indoor/Outdoor Oasis

Make the transition from indoors to the outside seamless and natural with outdoor furniture that’s been designed with indoor style and creature comforts in mind. Create a luxurious setting where you’ll want to linger over lunch with your nearest and dearest. Sleek aluminium frames with a glass overlay tabletop (such as the La Tavola) are right on trend, as are sealed fibreglass and cement frames (such as the Linear), sealed fibreglass and stone-powder tables (such as the Onyx) and cute tub and carver chairs (such as the Montpellier).

Our favourites include (as pictured above, clockwise):

• La Tavola 11-Piece Outdoor Extension Dining Setting
• Onyx Outdoor Rectangular Dining Table
• Onyx Dining Bench
• Montpellier Carver Chair
• Amara Outdoor Rectangular Extension Dining Table
• Amara Outdoor Padded Dining Chair
• Linea Outdoor Rectangular Dining Table
• Montpellier Tub Chair

4.   Block Colours

This summer is all about vibrant pops of colour in a rainbow palette. The addition of one or two bright furniture pieces will imbue a fun, fresh feel to your winter-weary outdoor area. Think bright sunloungers in zesty apple green (such as the Arcadia), an azure footstool (such as the Zed) or a tangerine-toned compact table and chair setting for four (such as the Stax). If you’re still shying away from daring hues, why not try mixing and matching confident colours in small doses (such as the Golf) with stable neutrals (such as the Trend dining table in white)?

Our favourites include (as pictured above, clockwise):

• Zed Set of 2 Outdoor Stools
• Stax Flip-Top Square Table
• Stax Aluminium Dining Chair
• Arcadia Sunlounger
• Golf Carver Chairs

5.   Floor Candy

Usually, the floor is an afterthought when renovating or updating any room, including the outdoors. Not this season, though! Outdoor rugs showcasing exciting prints and patterns in striking colourways are here to help you create a focal point in your al fresco area that will draw the eye and start a conversation!

Our favourites include (as pictured above, clockwise):

• Rio Outdoor Rug
• Copacabana Outdoor Rug in Multi
• Bronte Outdoor Rug
• Sunday Recycled PVC Rug
• Copacabana Outdoor Rug in Navy

6.   Cushion Corner

Fact of life: you can never have enough cushions – indoors or out! Not only are they great for resting your head on, leaning your back against or hugging when a coastal breeze hits, they are also a great way to incorporate colour and character into your decor and a cost-effective way to breathe new life into a stale space. This season is all about playful prints, solid colours and bright stripes balanced with hints of white and grey.

Our favourites include (as pictured above, clockwise):

• Bold Flamingo Cushion
• Striped Navy Outdoor Cushion
• Plain Piped Navy Outdoor Cushion
• Plain Piped Grey Outdoor Cushion
• Riviera Plain Yellow Outdoor Cushion
• Striped Red Outdoor Cushion
• Plain Piped Red Outdoor Cushion
• Striped Mint Outdoor Cushion
• Leaf Outdoor Cushion
• Plain Piped Green Outdoor Cushion

7.   Dynamic Decorators

No décor project would be complete without the addition of a few key decorator items to add personality to a space. Place either a dramatic individual piece against a clean backdrop or cluster a few similarly coloured items in varying heights to create a unique vignette. Our favourites include lanterns and candle holders in sunny yellow and sky blue, as well as vases and bottles with a ruby red and pale pink hue.

Our favourites include (as pictured above, clockwise):

• Escape Lantern
• Nomad Lantern
• Splash Candle Holder
• Berrie Treasure Bottle
• Ship Ahoy Bottle
• Dusty Lantern
• Garden Vase
• Country Lantern
