The New Outdoor Furniture Collection From Blu Dot

Five new outdoor furniture collections have touched down on Australian shores from the American furnishings icon, Blu Dot.


Over the last two decades, Blu Dot has established itself as a forward thinking name in design – a problem solver, designing high-quality, approachable home furnishings. Now, the company is launching an expansive new range of outdoor furniture.

The new outdoor furniture collections are driven by a style that is both practical and beautiful. These designs include of an array of sofas, lounge chairs, coffee tables and side tables all within the signature Blu Dot aesthetic – modern yet versatile.

“Having been frustrated consumers ourselves for great modern outdoor furniture that fit our budget, we saw an opportunity to design for this need,” remarked Blu Dot Australia’s Managing Director Brett Conroy on the new collection, “While we’ve had a limited assortment of outdoor designs in the past, we are really excited to get into this category in a very meaningful way with the launch of these five new collections. I honestly am having a hard time deciding which I want to take home for myself!”

Blu Dot’s outdoor furniture collection includes…

Cache
