Poliform Releases New Outdoor Collection

The brand’s first outdoor collection brings a harmonious blend of comfort, functionality and style for modern lifestyles

At the recent Milan Design Week, Poliform unveiled its highly anticipated outdoor collection, marking the brand’s first foray into outdoor furniture and accessories. Known for its exemplary indoor designs, Poliform is now expanding its horizons to bring its signature style and expertise to outdoor spaces, solidifying its comprehensive range of solutions for modern living. To bring this vision to life, Poliform collaborated with esteemed designers Jean-Marie Massaud, Emmanuel Gallina, Marcel Wanders and Soo Chan. Massaud draws inspiration from the nautical world with his Ketch collection, featuring solid lines and generous volumes in sofas, armchairs and coffee tables. His designs blend robust iroko wood with lighter elements, creating flexible backrests reminiscent of sails. Massaud has also reimagined the iconic Le Club armchair for outdoor use, incorporating water-repellent knit upholstery while maintaining the original’s delicate curves and comfort. His Crew collection translates ancient ceramic art into large, clean-lined pots and tables, combining pure and enamelled materials for a striking effect. The Azu coffee table, made from single-fired stoneware with a glossy finish, showcases a modern yet handcrafted aesthetic.

Gallina’s Magnolia collection highlights the natural lightness of wood, inspired by curving branches and falling leaves. Using techniques like Shou Sugi Ban, Gallina creates pieces that are both resistant and sophisticated. His Strata coffee tables, made from Cementoskin, mimic the layered look of minerals, while the Monolith collection features imposing dolmen-inspired forms with soft, rounded lines.

Wanders has adapted the delicate lines of the Mad collection for outdoor settings to create the Mad Out, which incorporates hand-woven rope backrests and durable materials. Complementary coffee tables with lava stone tops offer a unique matte-and-gloss contrast.

Soo Chan’s Soori Day Lounge is a round day bed designed for ultimate relaxation, featuring an elegant, braided headboard and meticulously chosen upholstery for a pleasant tactile experience. Poliform, in collaboration with CAP, has also introduced its first outdoor kitchen, Land. This ‘suspended sculpture’ consists of modular units hooked onto longitudinal beams, creating a minimalist, floating appearance. Made from aluminium, Inalco MDi and steel, the kitchen is designed for outdoor durability and operates entirely on gas or battery power, eliminating the need for electrical connections. It comes equipped with essential features like a sink, cutting board and barbecue.

The collection also includes the Kamir outdoor rug, which is hand-woven using traditional artisan looms. Made from water- and light-resistant yarn, each rug is a unique piece that blends indoor comfort with outdoor resilience.
