An outdoor umbrella does more than offer shade, it helps define the mood and layout of your outdoor space. Pair your umbrella with a sun lounge for a relaxed poolside setting, and complement with pool floats, perfect for creating your own outdoor retreat.
Positioning an umbrella beside a modular outdoor sofa adds the utility of shade for family or guests when seated or lounging.
For alfresco meals, complement your umbrella with a dining setting, and style with pieces like a sculptural chair or coffee table from the Outdoor Occasional Collection to complete the look and enjoy all-day alfresco lounging.
To enhance comfort and visual flow, style with planters and soft textiles like outdoor cushions. For added ambience, the Hyams Outdoor Umbrella offers optional LED lighting, designed to softly illuminate evening entertaining.
