Ethimo and Cristina Celestino have created an eclectic collection of benches and tables for outdoor living in simplicity and harmony<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The evocative and symbolic name Seeds, a reference to the world of gardening and traditional greenhouse and nursery furnishings, was chosen to describe a collection essential in its forms yet elegant in its details, where warm and fine materials like terracotta and natural teak come together in a sophisticated balance of textures and processes.<\/p>\n
Like the seeds that germinate and transform into plants, the Seeds collection recalls the concept of growth, renewal and attunement to nature, expressing infinite possibilities for furnishing outdoor spaces. The elements that comprise it can, indeed, be combined with great versatility, adapting freely to the environment that houses them, creating fluid and organic compositions that are different every time.<\/p>\n
The \u2018first\u2019 project designed by Ethimo and Cristina Celestino therefore explores the idea of modularity through a system of benches and tables notable for their stalk-like slender legs which lightly support the various surfaces. The choice to use variegated terracotta emphasises the inspiration this line draws from the evocative world of plant life. This material, with its distinctive marbled surface, fruit of skilful hand-craftsmanship, blends different clays to create a unique and one-of-a-kind effect that accentuates the element\u2019s individuality. A nod to artisanal traditions and the simplicity of the earth, highlighting the authentic nature of the entire collection.<\/p>\n
The Seeds elements have a metal structure, available in the colour options of Camouflage Green with bronze feet, Camouflage Grey with Russet Scarabea feet, and Lime Stone White with Grey Gold feet. The feet not only ensure optimal stability for the furniture but also serve as sophisticated decorative details.<\/p>\n
The tables reinterpret the traditional aesthetics of nursery tables with a contemporary twist, and are available in two different shapes: square (83\u00d783 H75 cm) and rectangular (83\u00d7167 H75 cm), with surfaces in terracotta, in natural-teak slats or in Laminam Calce Terracotta. The tile compositions create continuous surfaces in pink or variegated terracotta with delicate white and grey marbling.<\/p>\n
The benches are available in two heights (30 and 40cm) with surfaces made from the same materials as the tables, with the addition of metal, and can be completed with soft cushions in Ice or Darma Sage Green coloured fabric.<\/p>\n
The collection\u2019s dynamic character is emphasised by its variety of possible configurations as well as by the functional flexibility of the seats; indeed, the benches can transform into coffee tables and the coffee tables into supporting surfaces \u2018inviting\u2019 nature, as elegant display stands for flowers and plants.<\/p>\n
The Seeds collection reflects a new idea of harmony between design, nature, landscape architecture and flexible use of outdoor furnishing elements. Both functional and decorative, it is ideal for furnishing outdoor spaces of any style and size, from gardens to terraces, patios and city balconies, residential and otherwise. Thanks to their practical modularity and easy combination with other furnishing elements, Seeds benches and tables are a perfect solution for enhancing even hospitality venues, promoting guest comfort and social interaction.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
