Indoor designer furniture in outdoor versions
As beautiful outside as it is inside: this is the leading trend in the outdoor furnishing sector! Outdoor furniture looks exactly like its indoor counterparts. Dining tables, coffee tables, armchairs, chairs—the entire range of outdoor products is affected by this alignment in materials and design. The garden becomes a true extension of the home, offering comfort equivalent to that of your interior.
To give you a glimpse of this decor trend, here is a list of interior furnishing products now available in outdoor versions:
- the D.154.2 armchair from Molteni;
- the Leggera chair by Gio Ponti;
- the Utrecht armchair by Gerrit Thomas Rietveld.
While the outdoor version retains the characteristics of the indoor model, the choice of materials differs to ensure use in the open air under the best conditions. However, for these high-end pieces, the differences between indoor and outdoor materials are almost undetectable to the naked eye.
Rope furniture for the garden
This year, rope is a design element found in many garden furniture collections. It defines the generous and enveloping backrest of the Petalo armchair by Vincent Van Duysen. Roping sculpts the seat of the Telar chaise longue and serves as minimalist padding. It adorns the backrest of the Kiti chair with vibrant colors to energize your exterior. Rope shapes an elaborately woven shell reminiscent of traditional craftsmanship and forms the elegant seat of the Esosoft sofa by Antonio Citterio.
From sun loungers to stackable chairs and garden sets, rope is found on all your outdoor furniture!
Eco-friendly and durable outdoor furniture
Sensitive to environmental issues, designers are placing these aspects at the forefront of their creative process. The 2024 Molteni&C Outdoor Collection, for example, invites us to renew the bonds that unite us with nature by offering outdoor furniture rooted in durability. Materials such as solid teak, aluminum, and rope come together to extend the lifespan of armchairs, sofas, chairs, and garden tables.
As for the research carried out by Cassina LAB, it has led to the creation of a garden sofa made from materials derived from the circular economy, with a design that facilitates the recycling of components when the furniture reaches the end of its life.
Outdoor Soft Seating: ultra-comfortable outdoor furniture
Want to enjoy optimal comfort both indoors and outdoors? With Outdoor Soft Seating, it is now possible! Soft seating refers to comfortable furniture such as sofas, benches, armchairs, and ottomans designed to provide a warm, relaxing, and convivial living space. This concept has notably revolutionized the layout of professional spaces by replacing the strict work setting with an environment conducive to employee well-being: soft furniture, flexible pieces, ergonomic chairs, etc.
Transposed outdoors, this layout concept pursues the same objectives: offering maximum comfort to users. The 2024 collection from several design houses bears witness to this! At Cassina, the Mex-Hi modular sofa by Piero Lissoni, for example, features a seat with padding as comfortable as that of indoor sofas. Modular in nature, this sofa can be positioned according to your desires and even includes a cozy daybed.
At Manutti, the Sandua collection brings together chairs and armchairs enhanced with soft cushions to offer you moments of absolute relaxation outdoors.
