MEDITERRANEAN ESCAPES
Bring the Mediterranean to your outdoor space this year and create a subtropical haven for everyone to enjoy . Think al fresco dining , siestas and family gatherings surrounded by exotic scents , bold fabrics and decorative tiles . Embrace this growing trend and decorate patio areas with a plethora of colour and texture , steering away from minimalist colours . Opt for a warming , earthy colour palette in orange , pink and yellow , and reflect these colour choices when choosing your flowering plants . When considering greenery , opt for big-leafed shrubs ; something like a fatsia would work perfectly for a shaded patio area . Incorporating stone or terracotta touches , ornamental statues , pottery pieces and a water feature will create a classic Mediterranean feel . Finally , concentrate on socialising and outdoor dining ; position a round table with comfortable inviting rattan seating and dress with bright glass and plenty of candles .
