The garden is a place to relax, kick-back and put-aside normal conventions about what furniture is supposed to look like. You can be as formal or as informal as you like, and what a better place to try something different?
Swing seats are nothing new but, traditionally, they are wide 2 or 3 seaters with a canopy cover. Which is fine for couples sitting together but what if you want to just chill in your own personal space?
These suspended pod-style swing chairs are becoming really popular nowadays and it’s not hard to figure. What can be more relaxing than swinging gently in the breeze, cocooned in a comfortable basket chair?
