CURIO Collection. By Patrick Norguet. POINT

Step into the world of CURIO, a collection that turns the ordinary into the extraordinary. Designed by Patrick Norguet for POINT, Curio draws inspiration from the concept of “curiosities“—objects that captivate and intrigue. Each piece is a sculptural statement, blending art, geometry, and history into a seamless whole.

Crafted with a sleek aluminium frame and tapered legs that end in flared bases, CURIO exudes architectural precision. The defining feature? A generous woven-rope backrest that creates a protective yet open embrace, merging radical design with comfort.

“CURIO invites us to discover the extraordinary in the everyday beauty in the unexpected,” says Norguet. Designed for both residential and contract environments, its ergonomic form and bold visual presence make it a standout in any outdoor setting.

OBI Chair. By Ludovica+Roberto Palomba. EXPORMIM

A fresh take on outdoor seating, the OBI Collection expands this year with two refined dining armchairs, designed by Ludovica+Roberto Palomba for EXPORMIM. Inspired by the elegant folds of a traditional Japanese kimono sash, OBI’s distinctive band-like backrest evokes a sense of harmony and balance.

Crafted from high-resistance aluminium, the two new dining chairs feature subtle variations: one with sleek, tapered legs and another with sled-style legs for extra stability. The collection also introduces an exclusive textured premium band, hand-stitched for a sophisticated touch, reinforcing the collection’s Japanese-inspired elegance.

Complementing the OBI chairs is TALO, a series of monolithic dining tables by Altherr Désile Park. Featuring new heptagonal and octagonal shapes, these large-scale tables are reminiscent of ancient megaliths—timeless, monumental, and sculpted by nature itself. The perfect pairing for a bold and contemporary outdoor dining experience.

PASADENA Collection. By Jean-Marie Massaud. VONDOM

When Jean-Marie Massaud collaborates with VONDOM, the outcome is invariably a study in elegance and innovative design. The PASADADENA Collection stands as a testament, reimagining the archetypal outdoor sofa with architectural presence and an inherent sense of tranquility.

As Massaud explains, ‘PASADENA’s aim is to take an archetypal form and elevate it to architectural dimensions, while infusing it with a profound sense of comfort.‘ This collection is all about balance—soft, flowing contours meet lightweight profiles, creating an aesthetic that feels at once timeless and contemporary. “That balance is the key to timelessness”, Massaud concludes.

PASADENA encapsulates an effortless sophistication, seamlessly adaptable to a luxury hotel terrace, a private garden retreat, or an open-air lounge. The collection comprises a modular sofa, lounge chair, coffee table, and sun lounger, each piece crafted with weather-resistant technical fabrics and polyurethane, ensuring enduring durability.

INSULA Modular Sofa. By Patricia Urquiola. KETTAL

Redefining social outdoor spaces, the INSULA Modular Sofa by Patricia Urquiola for KETTAL is a contemporary nod to the traditional Arab majlis, where communities gathered for conversation and relaxation. Featuring low-profile seating with smooth, sculptural lines, INSULA serves as the ultimate flexible seating system for indoor and outdoor environments.

The standout design element? A distinctive roll-backrest, designed to emphasize the horizontal flow of the piece while ensuring optimal comfort. Thanks to its modular versatility, Insula can be configured to suit a variety of settings—from intimate lounge areas to expansive resort terraces.

Paired with V Pavilion by Vincent Van Duysen, a serene architectural structure seamlessly bridging indoor and outdoor environments, Insula becomes the heart of social interaction. Positioned by the pool or nestled within a garden, this combination exemplifies the fusion of contemporary design, functionality, and sustainability.
