outdoor dining set and lounge set with umbrella and outdoor kitchen overlooking the mountains

Kathryn and Justin live in Piggabeen, just over the border in northern New South Wales. They have a spectacular outdoor space - a patio by the pool, overlooking the mountains, with an outdoor kitchen already in place. All it needed was furniture.

With Lume's Brisbane showroom being the closest place to find the quality they were after, Kathryn made the trip up herself to see the range in person.

Kathryn Comes to the Showroom

Kathryn drove up from Piggabeen to our Brisbane showroom to explore the options. With so many choices available, she took her time, imagined each piece in their patio, and then did something clever: she took photos of the pieces she loved and sent them through to Justin at home so he could weigh in from afar.

It's a great approach for couples making big furniture decisions - one person does the legwork in the showroom, the other gets to see the real thing via photos rather than just guessing from a website.

'And how amazing does it look!!'

Starting With the Umbrella

Their first purchase was a large Solarmax umbrella for the pool area - practical first, beautiful second. Once that was delivered and installed, they came back for the furniture.

The Dining Setting and Lounge

After some discussion, Kathryn and Justin landed on a dining setting and a corner lounge to complete the space. The combination gave them everything they needed: a proper dining area for entertaining and a relaxed lounge zone to take in that mountain view.

We organised delivery with Northline freight to get the larger pieces down to Piggabeen, and a follow-up order came through Australia Post for an extra item they added later. Interstate delivery is absolutely something we can help with - it just takes a bit of planning.

We Were Even Invited Over for Dinner

We are so happy for Kathryn and Justin, and love how their new outdoor entertaining space has come together. We have even been invited over for dinner - and with a view like that, we might just take them up on it.

Love This Style?

The look Kathryn and Justin went for - a clean dining setting paired with a corner lounge - is one of the most versatile combinations for a larger outdoor space. If you're after something similar, the Sense 220x100cm Dining Table and the Stockholm Corner Lounge Setting are beautiful options in a similar vein.
