SEAMLESS TRANSITIONS: CREATING FLOW BETWEEN SPACES
An open floor plan is the cornerstone of seamless indoor-outdoor living, allowing for visual continuity that creates a feeling of spaciousness. Architectural features, like large sliding glass doors or tiles that flow from the kitchen to the outdoor patio, enhance this seamless transition and extend the interior space into the exterior. A unified colour scheme will also help to create a cohesive look. When designing your home, consider using complementary colours that harmonise with your natural surroundings, like the calming neutral tones of our Architect Outdoor range.
Using similar materials both indoors and outdoors further helps to tie spaces together. Opt for natural elements like wood and stone to create continuity and foster a deeper connection with nature. Coco Republic’s wooden dining chairs, like the Windsor, and marble coffee tables, such as the Veneta, embody this organic, cohesive design philosophy, bringing elements of nature into your indoor environment.
INVITING NATURE INDOORS
Indoor plants and greenery are an easy way to bring a touch of nature inside, adding colour and freshness to your home. From the Ponti Concrete Planter to the Brunella Cylinder Planter, our range of plant pots are modern yet timeless, and versatile enough to complement any home decor.
Maximizing natural light also enhances the indoor-outdoor flow, making interiors feel open and airy. Large windows and skylights allow more light to enter and emphasise the view, while mirrors, like the Charlotte Arch Floor Mirror, help reflect light around the room. Choose light-coloured furnishings to enhance brightness and bring the outside in. Our Malone Modular Sofa, available in multiple neutral shades and customisable, can be strategically positioned to maximise natural light.
DESIGNING INVITING OUTDOOR SPACES
As experts in outdoor furniture, we know a thing or two about creating outdoor spaces that encourage both relaxation and conversation. Think of it as an extension of your home and divide your space into functional zones, such as dining, lounging or gardening. Define each area with furniture arrangements, pathways and natural dividers like hedges or planters. Coco Republic’s outdoor sectional sofas, like the Architect Outdoor Modular Sofa, can be arranged into practically any desired shape, while pieces like our Xander Outdoor Coffee Table make lounging spaces feel more inviting.
Weatherproof rugs, cushions and lighting can add warmth and style to outdoor spaces. Bringing a touch of coastal elegance, the Flax Outdoor Rug is designed to withstand the elements, while our Bodega Outdoor lighting range creates a cosy ambience.
MAINTENANCE TIPS FOR INDOOR-OUTDOOR LIVING
Keeping your indoor-outdoor spaces looking pristine can require some upkeep. While our outdoor furniture is specially designed to stand up to the weather (come rain or shine!), additional care can help to extend its lifespan. Our waterproof covers, like the Malmo Outdoor Cover, protect your furniture from the elements and ensure you can make the most of it for years to come. Regularly clean furniture to prevent dirt from building up and always follow Coco Republic care guidelines for best results. Indoors, keep seasonal decor and plants refreshed; in colder months, bring more delicate plants indoors to protect them from harsh outdoor conditions.
Blurring the lines between indoor and outdoor living spaces not only creates a harmonious, cohesive flow but also fosters a deeper connection with nature, improving overall wellbeing. From natural home decor to long-lasting outdoor furniture, Coco Republic’s collection of beautifully crafted, functional pieces celebrate the beauty of nature and help to create a seamless indoor-outdoor flow.
