Types Of Outdoor Chairs For Exemplary Outdoor Living
January 1, 2025

Let’s talk about why you need beautiful new outdoor chairs. Living in Australia, we’re blessed with some pretty amazing weather to enjoy. We like getting outdoors and most of us are mad for a BBQ with friends.

So, during the warmer months, people with outdoor living spaces often spend as much time entertaining outside as they do inside. Therefore, it makes sense to furnish our outdoor areas with comfortable, durable outdoor chairs that are perfect for many happy hours enjoying our own backyard.

Your outdoor space should complement the style and vibe of your indoor living space. And the outdoor chairs you choose need to be specific for their purpose. Lounges are for lounging. Dining chairs are for dining. And sun lounges and day beds are for…you guessed it…catching some rays while you kick back.

Style doesn’t need to compromise with durability. Amart’s outdoor furniture is made from materials that are built to last, like powder-coated steel and aluminium frames, acacia wood, polyethylene (PE) wicker, and UV-treated and water-resistant fabrics. So you can maximise your alfresco spaces with furniture that thrives outdoors and is so beautiful you may even want to put it indoors.

The perfect patio dining chairs

The right patio furniture can transform even the most tired of patios into an attractive alfresco destination. It’s an opportunity to bring the style and functionality you enjoy indoors to the outdoors, creating another room in your home.

When buying an outdoor dining set, you have the scope to select the seating that’s right for your needs and space. You could opt for some outdoor chairs with your dining table and place an outdoor bench seat or stools down one side giving versatility to squeeze an extra person or two around the table. And if you have the space, add other outdoor seating in a different zone such as an outdoor sofa, sun chairs or a daybed.

The San Lucas Outdoor Dining Chair has a coordinating outdoor table and outdoor lounge setting to create a unified, modern contemporary look in your outdoor living area.

Luxurious lounge chairs

Outdoor lounge chairs are versatile pieces because they look great sitting together as a pair but you can also mix and match them with lounge settings that include a coffee table and outdoor sofa or modular lounge.

What’s more, many of the outdoor chairs in Amart’s range have other pieces that tie into the collection so you can achieve a uniform look. The Shadow2 Outdoor Lounge Chair can be purchased as part of an outdoor lounge setting and is also available as a bar setting and dining setting.

Other outdoor lounge chairs that can form part of a suite include the wicker Miami Outdoor Chair and Barbosa Outdoor Tub Chair.

Sun chairs for some me time

Let’s be honest, we could all do with some downtime. Just sitting around outside in nature doing whatever you like to do to unwind. Egg chairs and swing chairs become prized places to sit - just watch your family fight each other for their favourite spot!

If you’re after something stylish and lightweight that can be moved around as needed for garden parties or to chase the shade on a hot day, check out the Joy Outdoor Sun Chairs. You could even pop one of these indoors, they’re so versatile.

Get a resort feel with club chairs

Traditionally, a club chair refers to a style of a leather upholstered chair originally designed in France. However, nowadays an outdoor club chair refers to a chair with a sunken seat, low back, and stuffed cushions - something beckoning to be sat in for hours.

Barstools for the great entertainer

Nothing says entertaining and a resort bistro vibe like bar stools and bar settings. You could line up your bar stools at a servery bench or place them around a bar table. Finish the look with an outdoor umbrella. You’ll think you’re on holiday!

Keep some stackable outdoor entertaining chairs on hand for seating more guests than your dining set can accommodate. These high-quality, lightweight chairs can be used indoors or outdoors as needed.

The ultimate in garden furniture - Adirondack Chairs

Discover the hero pieces of garden furniture - Adirondack Chairs. Sometimes called a Cape Cod chair, our Replica Adirondack Chairs look just as at home on the grass as garden chairs as they do by the pool, or as patio chairs. Always best in multiples, these can sit as a pretty pair or dotted around a fire pit for comfy nights toasting marshmallows.

The arms of these chairs are wide and flat - perfect for resting a glass of your favourite tipple. And the chair back sits at the perfect angle for a relaxed seating position. Add a Replica Adirondack Outdoor Side Table to create a furniture set.

Kick back in a reclining chair

Get stuck into some serious relaxation with sun lounges and day beds. Designed for one purpose - to chill out. Sun lounges allow you to choose multiple points of recline and are intended for one person. While daybeds can be used either by one person to spread out and luxuriate or as a 2 or even 3-seater.

Now, just as there are numerous ways to unwind, there are numerous styles of daybeds and sun lounges. The Teramo Outdoor Day Bed Pod is great for a couple of friends to sit or lie down and snooze. While the Casablanca Outdoor Daybed features multiple recline points and looks as though it belongs poolside in Morocco. The Bodhi Outdoor Sunlounge is an elegant option for your pool or patio and the Aviara Hanging Chair just begs to be sat in with a book or your favourite music.

So there you have it, 7 types of outdoor chairs for your garden. Choosing your furniture with function in mind will enable you to get the most out of your investment, so you can live a life of outdoor luxury.
