Vista, the Dining Armchair
Conviviality That Enjoys the Landscape

The formal language of the new Vista armchair was inspired by Christophe Pillet’s Lodge collection. The piece inherits its aesthetics, in a more versatile reinterpretation.

A new chair, a different perspective, and another way to socialize outdoors.

Designed by Christophe Pillet, Vista accompanies the dining experience into the garden by creating a harmonious dialogue with the landscape: you’re invited to have a seat, take your time, and enjoy the surrounding scenery.

Comfortable and made of light-weight aluminium, Vista stands out for its essential design that leaves space for customization. That’s its distinctive feature. In fact, this armchair comes in over twenty different colours available in either matt or glossy finish, and an equally broad selection of fabrics for cushions. This extensive range of chromatic and surface choices confers Vista with a ‘transformable’ personality. It adapts naturally to the most diverse outdoor settings, and helps to suggest infinite design combinations.

 

Noon, dining tables
A single concept, a thousand ways of socialising in the open air

Ethimo presents Noon, a line of tables designed to dialogue with any setting and turn any space into a special occasion for sharing. An exceptionally versatile system that freely mixes shape, size, material, detail, and colour. Its simple, linear structure makes any number of configurations possible: round, square, rectangular or oval tables, in different heights and sizes with single bases or double for larger solutions.

Materials and finishes expand the creative possibilities to allow matching personalised combinations for any room: the metal structure comes in 16 different colours, ranging from Pink Pepper to Coffee Brown, Paprika and Mineral Grey through to Matt Caramel, and it can be covered in rope, available in Sideral Grey, Ivy Green and Light Grey. The tops include metal finishes coordinated with the base: travertine, Carrara marble and enamelled lava stone in vibrant shades that react in daylight to turn each and every surface into a unique piece. As a result, Noon tables in this way reveal a multitude of colour personalities in constant yet changing dialogue with their outdoor setting.

 

Rafael Revamps Its Look
Vibrant New “Outfits” Inspire a Fresh Way to Dress the Outdoors

Designed by Paola Navone, Rafael is one of Ethimo’s most iconic collections – a lounge and dining series that has reshaped how we furnish contemporary outdoor spaces. Its teak frame, characterised by irregularly and organically placed slats, gives the collection an exotic and tactile look, while its bold and highly expressive design is paired with fine upholstery and sophisticated patterns. The interplay between its sculptural design and couture-like textiles has made Rafael an outdoor collection with unmistakable presence and a unique and recognisable allure.

 

Betsy, the Dining Armchair
Vintage Elegance, Contemporary Comfort

Ethimo and Christophe Pillet have enhanced the world of outdoor dining with a chair featuring timeless style, an ‘invitation’ to relax and enjoy every single minute spent at the table in pleasant company.

Inspired by the appeal yesteryear and the look of colonial settings, Betsy recalls the unhurried entertaining that took place on the huge terraces and in the shady verandahs of residences in days gone by, where time passed in a perfect equilibrium of harmony and calm.

Betsy is an armchair in rope with a welcoming silhouette, which teams elegance with function. Its slightly sloping back together with its armrests encourages a relaxed posture while still offering good support. Available in two different colours—Burgundy and Amazonia—the refined weave of the seat is supported by light metal legs that confer streamlined stability to the armchair.
