positioned where design meets nature and creativity morphs into emotion, ethimo presents the ‘allaperto’ collection in collaboration with matteo thun + antonio rodriguez. under the same philosophy, four editions have sprung; ‘montagna’, ‘grand hotel’, ‘camping chic’ and ‘urban’, all of which display the same essence of outdoor living but through different details, color combinations and materials. the idea surrounds the enjoyment of relaxation but in a variety of alfresco contexts, as suggested through each piece’s name.

the ‘allaperto’ collection by ethimo and matteo thun + antonio rodriguez pronounces volumes of dynamism and versatility. its matrix of elements and wood structures ensure that an elegant allure is always achieved, with flexible details then changed to match pieces with different contexts. the designs source a more metropolitan interpretation of contemporary outdoor furniture, one that steps beyond the brand’s traditional mediterranean style. here, the cosy vibes felt indoor are transferred outside with comfort, style and durability.

the small dining armchair, lounge armchair and sun lounger of the ‘montagna’ range embraces the unique and magical moments experienced in mountain scenery, through an introduction of more bespoke details. with a natural and pickled teak, wool and cashmere appearance, the seating provides extra warmth with special sleeping bags that can be fastened on. as well, etwick fiber is woven into the design that, as well as creating a traditional tartan pattern, ensures maximum comfort and durability in even the most extreme locations.

lastly, the ‘urban’ edition blends contemporary taste with metropolitan moods. they present a minimal yet flexible style through a structure of metal, pickled teak, weaves and fabric that can be combined to form intriguing partnerships. these pieces are suited for more commercial settings, where hotels and private lounges can contract their own mixtures.
