S5 Ep6: Orange and Green should always be seen! We talk with the designers at The Outdoor Edit, a bold new Scottish brand reimagining how we design and enjoy our outdoor spaces.

In this vibrant episode, we sit down with Caitlin and Claire, the designers behind The Outdoor Edit, a bold new Scottish brand reimagining how we design and enjoy our outdoor spaces. With a mission to treat outdoor areas as an extension of the home, The Outdoor Edit brings fresh, trend-led thinking to a market previously dominated by muted tones and safe choices. Their debut range spans everything from parasols and cushions to bistro sets, lighting, and fire pits crafted to work in everything from small balconies to spacious gardens.We dive into their design journey, exploring how inspiration from Milan and Paris Fashion Weeks, international design fairs like Salone and Maison, and trend platforms such as WGSN and Pantone helped shape their six curated themes. Each one offers a unique personality from the playful, neon-soaked Moments of Joy inspired by Gen Z’s “kidult” culture, to the rich, elegant hues of Dark Bouquet and the soft, grounding neutrals of Coffee Naturals. The result is a range that invites customers to personalise their outdoor spaces just like they would an interior room.Caitlin and Claire also share how they built the brand from the ground up from mood boards and product design to packaging and the website all with the goal of creating an elevated yet approachable customer experience. And with themes designed to be mixed and matched, there’s flexibility to build a look that’s entirely your own.Top 3 Takeaways:Outdoor Living is Evolving Post-pandemic, outdoor spaces are no longer afterthoughts they’re now considered integral parts of the home.
