October 1st, 2024
Poliform has long been a name synonymous with refined timeless design. Now, the iconic Italian brand extends its design pedigree to the outdoors, with collections that bring the beauty and craftsmanship of indoor living into open-air commercial environments.
Poliform’s outdoor debut offers a seamless blend of nature and design that speaks directly to the needs of interior designers working within hospitality, wellness and corporate sectors.
Underpinned by a desire to harmonise the relationship between people, nature and the spaces they inhabit, each of the pieces are perfectly suited to the diverse climates and landscapes that make Australia unique.
At the heart of this collection is a commitment to quality and innovation, with designs brought to life by celebrated international designers, including Jean-Marie Massaud, Emmanuel Gallina, Marcel Wanders and Soo Chan.
Each collection offers a distinct interpretation of outdoor luxury, while collectively, they uphold Poliform’s core values of elegance, durability and impeccable design.
The Organic Perfection of Nature with Magnolia
The Magnolia Collection, designed by Emmanuel Gallina, is a testament to Poliform’s commitment to integrating the natural world with refined design. The fluid lines and organic forms of this collection – which includes a sofa, armchair and sunbed – are inspired by nature’s subtleties. The collection’s invisible backrest technology and seamless integration with its surroundings make it ideal for creating tranquil, inviting spaces that foster relaxation and rejuvenation.
Monolith – A Statement Table for Outdoor Dining
The Monolith collection, also by Emmanuel Gallina, reinterprets ancient monumental beauty for the modern commercial setting. With its sturdy tables crafted from Cementoskin® or basalt stone, this collection is perfect for outdoor dining areas in luxury hotels or rooftop bars. The thin, curvaceous surfaces of the tables complement their robust bases, making Monolith a statement piece that balances strength with subtle elegance, connecting with the environment in a harmonious and enduring way.
Ketch Adds a Touch of the Nautical
Jean-Marie Massaud’s Ketch collection is a celebration of nautical elegance, designed with durability and pared-back nod to a life in the elements. The collection – which includes a sofas, armchairs and a sunbed – is crafted in sturdy Iroko wood frames and luxurious outdoor fabrics are built to withstand the rigours of commercial use. A canopied version of the sofas provide private, intimate spaces for relaxation or informal meetings. The Ketch collection’s design language, reminiscent of taut sails and nautical forms, adds a sense of adventure and elegance to any commercial outdoor setting. Beautiful, natural timber defines the coffee table, with angled legs and an option of a glass or slatted top – rounding out the family resemblance.
Weaving a Sense of the Handmade – Mad Out Collection Goes Outside
Marcel Wanders brings his iconic Mad collection to the outdoors with a reimagined design that is both sculptural and functional. The collection’s hand-braided rope backrests and pebble-like coffee tables add a touch of artistry to any setting. Combining technical weaving techniques and durable materials these pieces are as resilient as they are beautiful, offering lasting appeal in any commercial space. Mix and match from a range that includes sofas and armchairs.
The coffee table brings a highly crafted and tactile complement to the woven furniture with a lava stone top. Available in two distinct shades influenced by high-temperature firing.
Le Club Outdoor is Made for Basking in the Sun
Another icon by the legendary Jean-Marie Massaud is the Le Club Armchair – a modern take on the classic armchair, re-engineered for the outdoors. With its water-repellent, knitted fabric and signature curved lines, this collection is perfect for creating cosy, stylish corners in luxury hotels or rooftop lounges. The Le Club Outdoor armchair brings the comfort and elegance of indoor seating to the outdoors, offering a versatile solution for a variety of spaces.
