All set for summer Designing: stylish terraces, balconies and gardens

When the weather is warm we’re drawn outside whenever it’s possible – be it in a spacious garden, on a stylish terrace or a cosy balcony.

A relaxing retreat, a place to enjoy the good life together. We expand our home environment into the great outdoors – our individually designed open-air setting. An additional living area takes shape here, continuing our stylish interior design outside.

Design tip: A harmonious transition from indoors to outdoors

An elegant way of transferring the indoor atmosphere outside and turning two separate living areas into a single whole is to have the same flooring indoors and outdoors, using tiles which are suitable for both areas. Different room scenarios blend seamlessly together (even with glass doors closed).

At home outside

Your outdoor environment needs to be planned well in order to ensure a quality setting that you can enjoy at all times. Apart from aspects such as furniture, lighting, shelter from the weather and greenery, the first thing to be considered is the right choice of floor covering.

An individual outdoor setting

Natural materials in timeless design which will bring pleasure for many years to come are a prime choice. Porcelain stoneware tiles in particular set the scene for a highly individual setting by virtue of their characteristic look – be it in purist concrete or cement design, in gentle natural shades of grey, in a wood look or in a multicolour stone texture.

Protection through all seasons

Villeroy & Boch tiles from the OUTDOOR TILES and Vilbogarden ranges are true specialists for outdoor living. The 20 and 30 mm thick tiles are slip-resistant and can be laid on various types of surfaces. The VilbostonePlus surface finish safely protects the porcelain stoneware tiles from scratches, wear and chemicals. This means no chance for deep stains and dirt. Protection throughout all seasons is equally important for outdoor tiles: They are water-repellent, frost-proof and weather-resistant.

Any exposure to sunlight will not change the colour of the collections’ distinctive design.

When nature leaves its mark

Blossom, leaves, moisture and moss leave their mark all over the garden and the terrace in the course of the winter. It is particularly important to remove these natural remnants from flooring in outside areas at the beginning of the garden season. With Villeroy & Boch tiles, cleaning these outdoor surfaces is an amazingly swift affair. Soiling is removed in next to no time with a gentle neutral cleaning agent and a scrubber.
