The Spring Picnic
Nothing says spring like the first outdoors picnic so make it a memorable one with a basket full of quirky accoutrements and comfy textiles that will come in handy for that post-sandwich snooze. Look to Fábrica Alentejana de Lanifícios and Hollie Ward for the soft touches that will make you the alfresco host with the most.
The Sun-lit Corner
Whether you have a bijoux balcony, a barge or a big back yard, celebrate the good light with a spontaneous table for two. From breakfast brioche in Poterie d’Évires deep dishes to alfresco lunches and dinners on Kaneko Kohyo rustic platters, sharing plates evoke a sense of summer conviviality.

The Games Table
Spring Sundays are made for sequestering a games board or boules set and finding a sunny spot to make your move. Make it extra special by acquiring the accessories that will up your home-design game, like Giobagnara’s dice set or Métier’s card case – it’s not just the winning that counts, remember, but looking the part, too.
