The importance of well-placed seating

Bringing comfort and character to your garden

The right seating can define an outdoor space, making it feel like an extension of your home. A garden swing seat or bench can become the heart of your garden; a spot to relax, unwind and enjoy the changing seasons in ultimate comfort.

Placement is key. Perhaps you’ll want to position your handmade swing seat where it catches the morning sun. Or maybe you’d prefer a shaded retreat beneath a pergola with a pleasing view of the vibrant spring plant life. Finding the right location for your garden furniture can make all the difference.

Buy once, buy well: choosing furniture that lasts

Investing in high-quality craftsmanship

Investing in well-made furniture will help your garden remain beautiful and functional for decades. The Affinity Swing Seat is a wonderful showcase of unique, elegant design; its bold painted finish comes in a range of colour choices, able to complement any garden design. 

For a touch of heritage and natural aesthetic, the National Trust Collection combines traditional craftsmanship with timeless appeal. Crafted from FSC-certified oak, each swing seat provides an inviting space to relax during the warm afternoons of springtime.

Personalising your garden with finishes and details

Adding unique touches to your outdoor space

A garden should reflect your own personal style, and bespoke furniture can certainly help add those unique finishing touches. Sitting Spiritually’s swing seat collection features a range of back styles to choose from; from the elegant Heart Back to the classic Slat Back, there’s an opportunity to choose a design that suits your garden and individual tastes.

For those looking for a unique finish while celebrating the arrival of spring, the RHS Four Seasons Swing Seat features intricate carvings that capture the essence of each season. The handworked daffodil motif on your swing seat will be the perfect welcome for those warmer months!

Transforming your space with a pergola

Creating structure and style with handcrafted designs

A bespoke pergola will create pleasing structure within your garden, providing a defined space for seating, dining, or simply enjoying the great outdoors. 

Sitting Spiritually’s handcrafted bespoke pergolas are built by our team of master craftsmen with each client’s vision in mind, adding height and interest to your garden while offering the perfect frame for colourful climbing plants. Designed with care to withstand the elements, each handbuilt garden structures offer plenty of aesthetic appeal and utility, making them a valuable addition to any outdoor space.

Enhancing your garden with seasonal planting

Bringing colour, fragrance, and texture to your space

Spring planting breathes new life into a garden, adding colour, texture, and fragrance. Incorporating a mix of perennials and seasonal plant life helps your outdoor space remain vibrant throughout the year. 

Climbing roses and wisteria harmonise beautifully with the natural wooden aesthetics of your pergolas and seating areas, creating a living canopy that will only add to the sense of relaxation. Fragrant plants like lavender and jasmine can also be placed near seating to add a sensory element to your garden. Combining thoughtful planting with high-quality furniture will create an outdoor sanctuary you’ll want to visit time and time and time again.
