Petrol blue is anything but cool
Blue boring? Definitely not. With petrol blue, our MAX collection gets a new colour that radiates calm while still making a statement. A deep shade of blue that is easy to combine, yet strong enough to stand out outdoors all on its own. Exactly the way we like it at MaximaVida.
Blue can be much more than a cool colour, and we see that in interiors too. In the article ‘Beautiful blue: five homes with the most beautiful blue walls’, vtwonen shows how different shades of blue can feel warm, bold and atmospheric when paired with the right colours. It highlights combinations with shades such as purple, dark red and brown to bring out the warmer side of blue.
At MaximaVida, we love colour. Not as a subtle detail that quietly appears somewhere, but as a way to give your garden, terrace or balcony real personality. Because outdoors is not just a backdrop. It is a place to live. For that first coffee in the sun, a spontaneous lunch, drinks that last just a little longer, or simply a quiet moment to yourself. Our furniture is made to be part of it.
New: the MAX collection in petrol blue
That is why we are adding a new colour to our MAX collection: petrol blue.
Petrol sits somewhere between blue and green and changes with the light. In full sun, the colour looks fresh and vibrant, while in the shade it becomes deeper and more rugged. That makes petrol blue feel distinctive without being overpowering.
And that is exactly why we think this colour is perfect for outdoor spaces.
Place the MAX bistro set on a green patio and the petrol blue blends beautifully with plants and flowers. Set against a light façade or on grey terrace tiles, the colour really stands out. So with just one furniture set, you instantly add a strong dose of character.
How to combine petrol blue outdoors
Petrol blue gives you a surprising number of options. Combined with green, it creates a natural look that blends beautifully into a garden full of plants. With yellow or ochre, petrol takes on a sunny, playful character. And if you want to add more warmth, combine it with terracotta, pink, red or warm wood tones.
A tonal colour scheme also works really well. vtwonen shows how different shades of blue can create a strong and cohesive look together. So why not combine petrol blue outdoors with light blue, turquoise or dark blue accessories?
Or forget the rules altogether and simply choose the colours that make you happy. We actually like that even better.
Bring the outdoors to life with petrol blue
A garden does not have to be beige. A balcony does not have to play it safe. And outdoor furniture certainly does not have to fade into the background.
With the new MAX collection in petrol blue, you can instantly add colour and character to your outdoor space. Bold enough to stand out, yet calm enough to combine endlessly.
The MAX bistro set is made for outdoor spaces where you want to use every bit of room wisely. Think of a balcony, city garden, terrace, or that one sunny corner at the back of the garden. The table and chairs are foldable, making them easy to move or store away.
But at MaximaVida, practical never has to mean unnoticed. Thanks to the new petrol blue colour, the MAX collection is designed to be seen.
A cup of coffee in the morning sun. Lunch for two. A glass of wine once the kids are finally in bed. Or unexpected friends dropping by on a Tuesday evening. That is what we make our furniture for. Because the best moments outdoors do not always need to be planned. They happen naturally.
MaximaVida. Outsiders for life.
