B&B Italia has once again chosen the Parisian autumn tradeshow Maison&Objet for the presentation of its latest Outdoor collection.
The new Titikaka bench, design by Naoto Fukasawa in teak lathes with an aluminium frame, contradicts the rigid shape of traditional outdoor benches. Perhaps the waves of the Bolivian Lake inspired this ingenious piece where the surface of the seat seems to almost ripple with wonderful effect of wind over water. In fact, around the aluminium frame the lathes, which continue to the floor on both sides of the bench, have a wavy progression, creating curves that are sculptural yet truly practical for the ergonomics of the seat.
The luxury feminine Crinoline collection
by Patricia Urquiola now has a new round table. A perfect complement to the rest of this series, the table takes on the same curved lines of the seats as well as the interlacing polyethylene fibres. The base is made up of two connected elements that create a chalice that supports the top and is available in two versions with black-white or bronze-black finishing. The tabletop is available in either white-coloured glass in pate de verre or in white stratified HPL with a pattern milled lines radiating outwards from the centre. The latter version being designed to hold an umbrella in the centre.
