As we launch into a month dedicated to The Art of Lounging, seeking spaces and products that feed a sense of zen, we bring you our top ten outdoor lounges.

 

Picked from across the region, these rooms are about living amongst the garden or really blending the out with the in. We hope they inspire you to sit back.
