The choice of garden furniture It has always been fundamental for the general design of the exterior area of ​​our house, to choose natural furniture that integrates into the landscape without too much disruption in nature and the plants that we have in this area of ​​the house. And thinking about this idea, we can fully integrate armchairs and tables by making the outer surface formed by a layer of natural grass that covers it, making it form part of the garden landscape as much as possible.
To create this type of furniture we can go to some models that are on the market specially designed to create our own lawn chairs. It is a hard cardboard base or structure on which the grass must be installed on a compacted and prepared earth surface, in this way we can place them in the garden area that we prefer in a simple way and without major works.
Alternatively create our own furniture design with a cement base on which to install grass turf, in this way we can design a large sofa with its table to make original armchairs for sunbathing. In both cases it will be essential to do regular maintenance of the surface since regular and abundant watering is necessary in hot seasons to prevent it from drying out and it is also necessary to mow the lawn as soon as it grows too large to maintain its shape. original of our garden furniture.
There is also a model of table that follows this principle, the PicNYC table, which has been designed by the Dutch Haiko cornelissen and that has been specially created for us to place a small natural grass blanket on its surface. This design is perfect to install it in our living room or on the terrace of those houses that lack a garden and thus be able to have a green area in our flat or apartment.
