Wherever you live in the world, wouldn’t it be great to have furniture you on occasion leave outside and not worry about? How many times have you perhaps thought about entertaining people, and realised you don’t’ have enough chairs for said garden party. In fact, maybe the seating you do have covering your outdoor needs is getting a bit old and tatty. Typically, outdoor seating is rather unimaginative, offering very little style and comfort. What if you were able to buy super stylish furniture that would be equally at home inside or outside your house?

Imagine no more, for a certain forward thinking rather futuristic furniture designer from Italy has created a fantastic range of funky sofas and chairs encapsulating an elegant and organic finish with supreme practicality. From their modern, retro range, two examples of this indoor-outdoor range, celebrating the interplay between people and their environment , are their sofa and armchair.

This Italian designer has cleverly created furniture that can withstand everything the elements can throw at it. Stainless steel, FSC and certified Ivory Coast iroko wood have been used in the main supporting framework. Upholstery has been hand-woven between the many rounded and smooth cylindrical slats. Additionally, the upholstery has been created from non-toxic, fire-resistant silicone, covered with the designer’s signature Rope. Seat cushions and pillows are constructed from materials that can withstand temperature extremes, rain, mould/ and fungus. Removable outer covers are also present. Sunlight will find it hard to fade any colouration since UV protection is built in, alongside many of the existing brown colours having gone through a weathering process.
