Furniture brands often tap designers and architects for both indoor and outdoor furniture collections, as well as accessories and home decor capsules. The result is often sophisticated and eye-catching, with playful sculptural elements or paired-back minimalist designs that hint at a timeless aesthetic. One such example is the collaboration between Spanish brand Gandia Blasco and Argentinian architect and designer Daniel Germani.
This particular outdoor furniture collection is named Solanas, a playful hint at the Uruguayan beach that has sentimental meaning for Daniel Germani. The silhouettes that are part of this release are designed especially for "entertaining in coastal locations"—think light color palettes and thin frames. All seven of the pieces are introduced to the public in "curving aluminum." The capsule includes seating, as well as partitions.
