This year only some of us are going on exotic vacations to the Canary Islands or Morocco. The atmosphere of the tropics and distant travel can easily be transferred to the home garden. A few necessary additions will help to arrange the space so that, thanks to it, you can find yourself in a seaside resort.
The luscious green of banana leaves, the spreading canopies of monstera and the fanciful shape of climbing philodendrons - plants are undeniably the main protagonists of tropical arrangements, including garden ones. However, exotic flora has its own requirements, so dreams of a vacation under the palm trees will help us fulfill artificial plants. Made with attention to the smallest detail, it will easily turn our garden into a real jungle, and will survive many a rainy season.
Like in a seaside resort
Sunscreen, sunglasses and run ... to the terrace, where we will feel like in an elegant seaside resort. In addition to bright furniture, accessories in shades of broken white, gray, sandy beige, blue or navy will prove indispensable. Maritime styling will not do without cotton blankets and carpets with distinctive stripes, soft pillows with the motif of anchors or lighthouses. On coffee tables or windowsills you will find a place for figures of seahorses, coral or majestic ships. An original element of the arrangement will also turn out to be braids suspended over the terrace, resembling fishing nets or a sail, which can successfully replace a typical umbrella.

oriental vacations at your fingertips
The unforgettable atmosphere of a Moroccan souk, the smell of inc ense and the energetic fever of colors can accompany us not only during distant travels. We can recreate a similar atmosphere in our own garden. Accessories richly decorated with ornamental patterns, high-quality hand-woven carpets or airy curtains and canopies will prove helpful. It is they that will create an unforgettable landscape straight out of the "Tale of a Thousand and One Nights".
In addition to the bold mix of fanciful patterns in Moroccan-inspired arrangements, rich colors lead the way. Deep yellows, reds, oranges or shades of fuchsia and burgundy are present on almost all furnishings - from vases to elegant trays and platters. And this, combined with the natural materials from which they are made - wood, stone or ceramics - makes each decor element a small work of art, as beautiful as it is functional.

Inspired by Arab culture and customs, we can be tempted to replace traditional garden furniture with low loungers and impressive pouffes and cushions. Decorated with fancy tassels, stitching and oriental patterns transferred directly from the Moroccan world, they will take the form of comfortable and impressive seats. The dot over the i of the whole arrangement will be colorful blankets and bulging wooden or metal lanterns creating a fabulous illumination. And if in the evening we want to warm ourselves in the warmth of the fire, garden fireplaces will prove indispensable.
