Outdoor furniture from IKEA is exactly what you need for spending time outdoors in the summer. At a recent event in the Ljubljana Botanical Garden, IKEA Slovenia presented accessible solutions and ideas for arranging outdoor spaces. Furnishing experts, together with representatives of the media and famous faces such as Ajda Sitar, Jure and Tjaša Marolt and Vanesa Rola, revealed tricks for furnishing small balconies, lovely terraces and well-kept gardens.

Since IKEA opened its first store in Slovenia two years ago, it has realized that Pleasant outdoor spaces mean a lot to Slovenians. During the spring and summer months, we like to gather for picnics and family celebrations, while green balconies and terraces provide a refuge and opportunity for relaxation, especially for those who live in cities. Every year, the IKEA company carries out the Life at Home survey, which found that more than half of respondents believe that a key aspect of the perfect home is being able to decompress and relax.

Comfortable and affordable outdoor furniture

Big dreams of landscaped outdoor spaces are common, but the number of square meters is often limited. IKEA offers ideas and advice on how to transform any balcony, terrace or garden into a comfortable and attractive space. With thoughtful storage solutions and smart furniture, big ideas can be realized regardless of budget and space constraints. For example, with folding tables and chairs from the series NÄMMARÖ it is possible to save space, as they are easily put away when they are not needed.

Lejla Puškar, employed in the Department of Interior Design and Communication at IKEA, said:

This year, we added pieces of modular furniture to the NÄMMARÖ family, which can be adjusted according to the size of the balcony or terrace. By connecting individual seating units, we can create a sofa that fits perfectly into the room. The designers took into account that the honey-colored wood will become even more attractive over time and complements beautifully with the green plants that we like to place on balconies and terraces.

Garden furniture for all weather conditions

SEGERÖN the collection allows you to enjoy the outdoors from the first warm spring months until late autumn. It is a series of flexible outdoor furniture that is suitable for different weather, climate and activities, while being easy to maintain.

Manca Zorec, also from the Department of Interior Design and Communication, explained:

The SEGERÖN series includes affordable yet durable pieces of furniture with a minimalist and timeless look. Tables and chairs from this series are made of materials that are easy to maintain. They are also tested and approved for use in public spaces, which confirms their durability and ability to withstand daily use.

Modular outdoor kitchen

A true outdoor gathering cannot be complete without a suitable culinary experience. Z GRILLSKÄR IKEA products make outdoor cooking even easier. The collection makes it easy to set up an outdoor kitchen in the garden or on the terrace, where you can add a kitchen island, a side table and even a sink to the charcoal grill.

Bernard Markovic, operational manager of kitchen processes at IKEA Slovenia, spoiled the garden party guests with Swedish culinary specialties. He emphasized that the products in the IKEA store are obtained from certified responsible sources, which ensures authentic taste and pleasure when spending time outdoors.
