Living the nature – IFDM

Families and collections are enriched and expanded to furnish outdoor spaces, from terraces to swimming pools, and even gardens, whether in private residences or hotels. Outdoor design evolves through the experimentation of advanced materials and innovative processes. Often, it results from a transformation: an indoor project is adapted using cutting-edge materials and technologies to meet the needs of outdoor environments.

The Obi family (on cover), inspired by the belt of the Japanese kimono, by Expormim expands with two dining chairs. Their structure is made of high-strength aluminum, and the backrest echoes the distinctive belt of this collection. One chair features four slender legs, while the other has a sled base for added stability. Design Ludovica + Roberto Palomba.

Consisting of an armchair, coffee tables, low tables, a sofa, and a lounge chair, the collection is characterized by a die-cast joint into which extruded aluminum profiles are inserted. Roè by Fast has a base seating structure, made of extruded and die-cast aluminum, can be enhanced with cushions, allowing customization with numerous materials and colors. Design Francesco Meda e David Lopez Quincoces.

Eidos, from the Greek ‘form,’ by Gervasoni is enriched with new elements, including tables available with round and rectangular tops and circular-section legs offering various options. Besides the classic version with a slat top, variations with back-painted glass and white cement tops (pictured) are available for versatile aesthetics. Design Oscar e Gabriele Buratti.

The Ogado collection by Manutti celebrates the elegance of organic forms and artisanal precision. The tables, with teak or ceramic tops, evoke the fluid lines of nature, while the sculpted bases reflect a timeless design. Perfect for any outdoor space, they combine sustainable materials, durability, and aesthetics that invite conviviality.

The Tiberina by Nardi is characterized by a slat design, offered in recyclable fiberglass resin and in the Regeneration version, made from regenerated plastic. The legs are slim yet robust, equipped with non-slip feet designed to ensure maximum stability and floor adhesion. It is available both with armrests (Tiberina Armchair) and without (Tiberina Bistrot). Design Raffaello Galiotto.

The new Down to Earth collection by Perennials and Sutherland presents six new fabrics, including Shadow Stripe. It features a classic striped pattern, enhanced with a subtle shadowed outline adding depth and refinement. All fabrics are tested and certified to industry standards for resistance to stains, water, UV rays, tears, and abrasions.

Groove, Tom Dixon‘s first outdoor collection, is made from industrial aluminum using cutting-edge production techniques to ensure superior longevity. A high-quality powder-coated finish ensures suitability for outdoor use. The collection includes chairs, armchairs, tables, stools, and outdoor cushions and is available in two sophisticated color variants: Moss and Putty.
