Chill out decoration and interior design are the heart of Fiaka. Since we started this project in 2004, we have focused our passion on creating spaces that invite relaxation and disconnection. Although trends change, there are basic principles in outdoor design that remain unchanged after two decades of experience.
Below, we take a look at some of our master tips and review historical projects that, despite the passing of the years, are still style references.
White: The King of Chill Out Furniture
In chill out furniture, white is still the predominant color. It’s not just a matter of fashion; white conveys peace, purity and a positive feeling. In addition, its ability to absorb and reflect light makes it ideal for both Mediterranean interiors and exteriors.
-
Luminous Contrast: White furniture on dark floors creates a timeless elegance, as we saw in our first projects with the Liberty 66 agency.
-
Resistance and freshness: At Fiaka we manufacture furniture with technical materials that maintain this impeccable white, even under the intense sun exposure of coastal areas.
Beyond White: Contrast and Character
Although white is the base, the chill out interior design allows to play with variables that provide identity to the place or event:
-
Red and White: A bold combination that we applied years ago at Le Meridien Ra Beach, demonstrating that the energy of red can coexist with relaxation.
-
Black and Elegance: The black-white binomial is a safe bet for sophisticated and nocturnal environments.
-
Vitamin touches: Orange or yellow are perfect for refreshing terraces looking for a younger and more dynamic atmosphere.
Fiaka’s Legacy: Projects that lead the way
As we review our archival photos, such as those of the MBA Youth Center or our first Balinese beds, we realize something important: quality survives time.
Although the aesthetics of the photographs have evolved, the essence of those combined soft and rigid furniture is still the key to success. Today, we continue to apply that knowledge to manufacture the best made-to-measure loungers and benches on the market, optimizing spaces so that they are as functional as they are aesthetic.
Tips for a professional chill out terrace:
-
Mix Textures: Combine soft seating (poufs) with rigid structures (wood or aluminum beds).
-
Prioritize shade: Play with shadows in open spaces to create thermal comfort corners.
-
Invest in durability: An old project only looks good if the materials were top quality from day one.
At Fiaka, we have been transforming ideas into reality for more than 20 years. If you are looking for advice for your next chill out decoration project, trust in those who have seen this trend born and grow.
