Summer Hosting With Skagerak: Create a Scandinavian-Style Space for Outdoor Entertaining
We're dishing out our favorite outdoor furniture, tablewares, recipes, and hosting tips for easy entertaining in your modern backyard.
Summer isn?t officially here yet, but it?s just around the corner (June 20th, to be exact!). This means you have less than a month to prepare your backyard space if you want to kick off the first day of summer in style for some much needed outdoor entertaining. After more than a year of social distancing, I made sure that renovating our backyard was a priority so that we could safely host our small group of vaccinated friends + family for balmy al fresco suppers and cocktails.
One of my first decisions to settle on was the outdoor furniture. I wanted something that was timeless and durable since we?re blessed with great weather practically 10 months out of the year here in Southern California. I also knew I wanted something that encapsulated Danish design, a style I?ve come to love and define as quietly refined, immaculately built, and inherently special. I searched high and low, locally and abroad, and almost gave up to settle for ?just ok? furniture. Throughout the search, I kept returning to Skagerak and, in the end, knew it had to be Skagerak or nothing. Photo: Jennifer Chong Studio
