On the occasion of Molteni&C’s 90th anniversary, the brand launched the new Outdoor 2024 collection signed by creative director
Vincent Van Duysen
, a way to celebrate the history and tradition of a company that has been able, from 1934 to the present, to leave an indelible imprint even in the field of designer outdoor furniture, thanks to its deep-rooted values and a gaze constantly turned to the future.
The
Outdoor 2024 collection by Molteni&C
aims to create a dialogue between indoors and outdoors under the banner of harmony and relaxation, representing a true invitation to develop a deep connection with nature and experience it by indulging in the comfort of fine furniture that is both aesthetically pleasing and sustainable.
From the fine Picea coffee table to the Sway modular sofa system, characterized by sinuous shapes, via the Fairmont table capable of fitting harmoniously into any type of environment, Molteni seeks to transport its traditional elegance to the outdoors as well, in perfect harmony with its natural surroundings, with new ideas destined to influence trends in outdoor design.
A look at luxury in outdoor design 2024
In full keeping with its tradition of craftsmanship, Molteni’s Outdoor 2024 collection has selected a range of fine and sought-after materials that once again allow the company to stand out in the landscape of
luxury design
, even when it comes to making pieces for outdoor furniture.
Perfect examples of this philosophy are materials such as solid teak, which combines the robustness required to withstand even the elements with a feeling of warmth, and metal, which recalls a more essential and modern style without, however, forgoing details that give it delicacy.
Also deserving of attention is the decision to focus on a valuable material such as ceramic, a key element of the Picea coffee table, which can enrich the room with a sculptural touch and is available in anthracite, merlot red and écru colors.
Polypropylene ropes handcrafted to create refined weaves then represent a further reminder of Molteni’s tradition of sophistication and attention to detail in both indoor and outdoor spaces.
Ideas and inspiration for outdoor space design
As with all Molteni & C collections, Outdoor 2024 focuses on signature design and the unique imprint that each professional leaves on the pieces they work on.
Among the main inspirations of creative director Vincent Van Duysen, for example, is one that evokes the great masters of Milanese design such as Piero Portaluppi, whose characteristic traits the Belgian architect tries to reinterpret, such as understated elegance coupled with a deep attention to detail.
Such elements are clearly visible in the Augusto sectional sofa, but also in the Cobea and Boboli seats, which recall the lightness and brightness typical of nature.
The Sway modular sofa system, designed by the duo Yabu Pushelberg, is also inspired by the concept of layering typical of the natural world to offer a wide range of configurations designed to ensure maximum customization of spaces even outdoors.
Once again, therefore, Molteni promotes dialogue between indoor and outdoor environments thanks to a collection that combines aesthetics and functionality, features declined in an outdoor key through the use of natural materials and details capable of creating real oases of relaxation in the open air.
