Patio

A new line of outdoor furnishings that stand out for their creative use of weaving teamed with the natural beauty of teak.

Patio is a lounge collection with welcoming shapes and a cocoon function, conceived to hug the body in a comfortable embrace.  Its name and special arched weave recalls the traditional inner patios so typical of Spanish architecture, where porticoes and loggias housed the various rooms in the house, opening out onto the uncovered courtyard with pools and fountains decorating the garden.

"The Patio collection," explains Studio Zanellato/Bortotto, "stems from our passion for the variety of weaves and patterns discovered on our travels.  We designed a series of motifs as 3D surfaces that could be become the decoration and structure of a series of outdoor seating elements.  The latter become true frames in wood and teak into which skilled craftsmen weave close patterns based on our suggestions, tests and inspirations, gathered with this new project in mind for Ethimo."
