When designing an inviting outdoor space, the height of a vitrine placed near sofas plays a crucial role in both functionality and aesthetics. The ideal vitrine height should align with the seating level of your outdoor sofa, typically between 24 to 30 inches (60-75 cm). This ensures easy access to items while maintaining visual harmony.

For a balanced look, consider the sofa’s armrest height as a reference—the vitrine should either match it or be slightly lower. This creates a seamless transition between seating and surfaces. Additionally, leave at least 12-18 inches of space between the sofa and vitrine for comfortable movement.

Materials matter too. Opt for weather-resistant vitrines in materials like teak, metal, or synthetic wicker to withstand outdoor conditions. Styling tips include adding decorative trays, lanterns, or potted plants to elevate the space. By carefully selecting the right height and design, your vitrine will enhance both practicality and style in your outdoor oasis.
