The choice of your garden table depends on several criteria: weather resistance, maintenance, durability and, of course, style. To enjoy a garden table that’s both functional and elegant, it’s essential to choose the right material.
Wood, such as teak or acacia, offers a warm, natural style that blends perfectly into an outdoor environment. It does, however, require regular maintenance to preserve its shine in the face of UV rays and humidity. If you’re looking for sturdiness with low maintenance, metal (aluminum or treated steel) is an excellent option: modern, solid and often treated against rust, it adapts to many styles.
Very popular in contemporary garden furniture, resin also offers many advantages. As an extremely lightweight material, your garden table can be moved very easily. Secondly, resin is resistant to UV rays, humidity and temperature variations, making it an ideal choice for outdoor use without fear of fading or warping.
In short, the best material for a garden table depends on your priorities: style, durability or maintenance. Get inspired by our garden table ideas to make the perfect choice for your outdoor living space!
With limited outdoor space, choosing the right shape and size of table is essential to optimize space. A small, well-designed garden table lets you make the most of your balcony, patio or terrace. Round tables are ideal: they facilitate circulation in narrow spaces, while promoting conviviality.
Rectangular tables are more classic, but can also be used if they are narrow or extendable: they run along a wall or railing, freeing up space in the center. This type of table also provides a good surface for meals, while adapting to the size of your garden thanks to folding or modular models.
For optimum comfort, consider models with stacking or folding chairs, which are easy to store. A good garden table idea for small spaces is also the wall-mounted folding table, discreet and practical.
