Your conservatory will likely be a wonderful link between your home and garden. Therefore, looking for specific conservatory garden furniture that perfectly blends indoor and outdoor styles is a good idea.

But what should you look for in the best home, garden conservatory, and garden furniture? Is there any difference between everyday garden furniture and pieces you’d install in your conservatory garden room? Let’s take a glance at what you need to know, as well as a few ideas.


Garden versus conservatory furniture

You’re probably wondering if there’s much of a difference between garden furniture and conservatory furnishings – the answer is often a resounding yes!

Garden furniture is, as you’d expect, designed for outdoor use. That not only means it’s built and finished to withstand the weather, but that it should blend well with the natural colours of your lawn, plants and fencing.

Conservatory garden furniture, meanwhile, occupies that space between home and garden – meaning you’ll look for furniture that reflects your conservatory installation while reflecting the natural space you’ll look across.

While you may not have garden furniture specifically in your conservatory, you’ll find there are many pieces designed to tie the indoor and outdoor together.

Garden conservatory furniture styles

Most garden conservatory furniture styles are those that withstand heavy light while emphasising luxury and comfort. For example, you may choose a delicate rattan conservatory furniture set, as this style will blend well with open green scenes while remaining robust and visually impressive across years of intensive natural light.

You may also wish to consider casual chairs and sofas that are upholstered – providing you have enough roof coverage to limit the spread of natural light. Do also consider using varying styles of wood and finish for minimalist tables and chairs. Bamboo and pine, for example, are timeless and hardy, providing a delicate aesthetic to a garden space that isn’t even in the garden!


Garden room conservatory ideas

No two garden room conservatories should ever be the same, and that’s why it’s worth thinking carefully about the look you’d like to present, and how you’d actually like to use your space. Do you want to use it as a vantage point to look across your garden on milder days? What about a nice nursery space or office that gives you views of the greenery outside your home?

Of course, it’s also worth considering using a garden room conservatory to create a dining or entertaining suite. On summer evenings, a light, airy garden room can be perfect for welcoming a handful of guests to enjoy drinks and food with. 

Of course, you may even choose conservatory garden furniture to create a specific style of dining area. Specific period furniture, for example, can look opulent and stylish when cared for well. For example, you may even wish to create a quaint tea room or bistro style!

Ultimately, accessories and furniture can really complete the perfect garden room conservatory. Will it be a functional space, a feature room, or somewhere you’d like to relax in? Let these intentions lead you towards furniture choices that endure years of use.

Can conservatory furniture be used outside?

In some cases, conservatory furniture can be used outside, but only on a temporary basis. Furnishings and accessories designed for conservatories or garden rooms are specifically built for use inside the home – meaning outside weather could risk spoiling your chairs or tables, for example.

It’s best to invest in furniture that’s specifically designed for certain purposes – or you risk losing some truly wonderful-looking pieces!

 

Can you use a conservatory as an office?

A conservatory can make a delightful office space – many of us feel inspired by the great outdoors! You can set up a stylish and flexible garden office with comfortable yet professional seating and a fantastic monitor stand to help house your equipment. 

You can repurpose much garden and conservatory furniture for office use – it’s simply a case of being creative. Remember, the main function of an office is that it’s functional and practical – but there’s no reason you can’t build an inspiring space in your conservatory extension (providing it’s not going to distract you!).

Conservatory TV room

If you’re keen to make your conservatory a room where the whole family comes together, consider turning it into a specific TV lounge or entertainment suite. Paired with comfortable conservatory garden furniture, you can set up modern TV units to house your equipment – making for magical movie nights.

Even if it’s somewhere nice and relaxing where you can go and watch soaps at the end of the working day, a conservatory TV room could add a lot of personal value to your space.

Perfect conservatory accessories

Accessorising your conservatory effectively will help you to splash personality across your space, as well as help you to really make the most of your wonderful garden views. Consider choosing continental rugs and runners to make the most of your floor space, for example.

You may even wish to use your conservatory to house plants and store gardening supplies. Alternatively, why not choose from some stylish shoe racks to give your space a little more purpose?

Pulling your ideas together

When it comes to finding your ideal conservatory garden furniture, there are no right or wrong choices. Consider your needs and aesthetics – what appeals to you and your family now, and what are you going to make the most use of in the years to come?

Pulling your ideas together can be fun, but remember, looking for extension quotes from at least three suppliers is always a good idea before focusing on the design. That’s where we can help!
