Outdoor Benches
How do outdoor benches and lights create a cosy mood in gardens?
The right combination of seating and lighting turns any garden into a cosy hideaway, ideal for relaxed evenings, social dinners, or even quiet moments alone.
We recommend the Fermob Louisiane metal outdoor bench for its classic curves and timeless appeal, perfect for lining garden paths or tucking beneath trees. Add soft glow with the Fermob Balad Mini Table Lamp, which brings portable, cordless lighting wherever you need it. For an extra lounge feel, complete the setup with the Fermob Surprising low armchair, a minimalist piece that pairs effortlessly with benches for a layered, casual look. Together, these pieces create a cosy outdoor mood that feels as considered as your indoor space.
How can benches add playful charm to the corners?
Thoughtful seating can turn underused, empty spaces into conversation starters. That's why benches from Fatboy pack a whole lot of personality to make outdoor spaces a true extension of your home.
We recommend the Fatboy Attackle outdoor bench for a bold, eye-catching statement. It's fun, dog-shaped design adds instant character. Pair it with the Fatboy Original bean bag and an outdoor pouf to create a cosy lounge corner where people can relax, sit informally, or snap a few photos. It’s our go-to setup when we want a corner to feel more like a hangout.
Outdoor Benches With an Edge
Our Loft bench in Gunmetal is a standout piece from our event rental collection, now available to buy. It seats two comfortably and features a solid wood top with a metal frame, giving it a raw, industrial edge. It works well in modern, rustic, or warehouse-style spaces.
Beyond events, the Loft bench is also suited for home porches and gardens. Its sturdy build supports everyday use, while the compact, minimalist design fits neatly along entryways or pathways, adding functional seating with understated character.

Frequently Asked Questions
We always recommend starting with your space, thinking about where the bench will go and how many people you’d like it to seat. We offer options in different lengths and finishes, so you can find one that fits and feels right. We also guide you on materials suited to the UAE climate, such as metal and treated wood.
Yes, you can. Most of our outdoor benches are made with weather-resistant materials that handle strong sun and light rain. We focus on finishes and designs that work well outdoors, so you don’t have to worry much. Just a little care now and then helps keep them looking great.
We usually recommend metal benches with powder-coated finishes, especially for outdoor use in hot, sunny areas. If you prefer the look of wood, we offer options that are sealed and treated to resist moisture and UV rays, both of which are great for garden settings in this climate.
It’s simple. We suggest wiping it down regularly with a soft cloth and mild soap. For wooden benches, a quick oil or seal touch-up now and then keeps them fresh. With just a little upkeep, your bench will look great season after season.
Absolutely, cushions add comfort and can change the whole look. We recommend outdoor-friendly fabrics that resist fading and are easy to clean. Just bring them in during extreme weather to keep them in good shape longer.
