The starting point of the design process is the meeting with the cilent: a preliminary briefing aimed at collecting essential information for the success of the project, both in technical and aesthetic terms, depending on the client’s needs.

On occasion, the work team will collect the relevant measures and information needed to be able to develop the preliminary design phase.

How to make your outdoor project look perfect and complete
We have illustrated the main design phases that must be carried out to create technically and stylistically impeccable luxury outdoor designs.
Perfection lies in the details and the attention to detail according to the client's taste, which is why each of these steps must be meticulously developed by appointed professionals.
But what makes a furnishing set for outdoor environments complete and perfect is the design of the lighting system and the set up of 3 task areas, essential for giving the same feeling of comfort, luxury, and hospitality typical of an indoor atmosphere.
Therefore, we need to think about the design of the:
- Living room;
- Kitchen;
- Dining room;
- Lighting.
Below is a brief overview containing some suggestions for the care of the outdoor lighting design project and the creation of different furnishing concepts.
Living room
The living area is the place where hospitality becomes an exclusive experience
To create a glamorous and elegant atmosphere, without sacrificing functionality and comfort, we advise you to select furnishings in the same furnishing style, or to create a variegated but coherent aesthetic composition, according to the client's preferences.
The important thing is to focus on furnishing elements that can offer the right comfort and allow guests to revel in the beauty of the living space: large sofas and comfortable armchairs, refined side tables, furniture and cupboards, where you can store linens, dishes and silverware.
Kitchen
In any self-respecting luxury outdoor project, a kitchen should never be missing.
Carefully designing an outdoor cooking space means:
- Evaluate the location where the kitchen will be installed;
- Select suitable outdoor flooring, made with durable and resistant materials, as well as great aesthetic potential, that is: composite or traditional wood decking, stones, porcelain stoneware, bricks, marble mosaic, pebbles, and grits;
- Plan the layout of the kitchen area that best suits the client’s needs and then choose between a corner kitchen, linear kitchen or U-shaped kitchen.
Dining room
The dining room area is the environment that frames the kitchen, which is why each piece of furniture selected to set up this room should result in total harmony with the style of the kitchen area and, as a result, give a sense of completeness and aesthetic coherence.
Opt for a dining set in stylistic agreement with the outdoor kitchen: you could propose that your client select a large table with matching chairs or create an unusual composition but still with a great aesthetic appeal by playing on the formal and material contrast of the single elements.
Maybe you should opt for seating in synthetic rattan with softer and curvilinear shapes to be combined with a square or rectangular table in wood or wrought iron.
Lighting
Lighting should complete the entire furnishing arrangement, in terms of aesthetics, and create the location’s atmosphere, ensuring maximum comfort and excellent visibility.
Choose lamps with a modern and glamorous taste, coordinated with the accessories selected for your project: arched floor lamps, floor lamps, appliquès, and suspensions made with the best materials and certified for outdoor use.
The lighting sources that you will select for your project will not only be simple outdoor lighting design solutions but real light points and decorative elements able to make the entire location shine.
