Philía is a collection of outdoor seating reminiscent of the traditional Italian garden chairs, it recalls relaxed lifestyle in open air, typical of the Italian “dolce vita” of the Sixties. A side chair and an armchair featured by rational and geometric lines that blend with softer forms typical of the human body. Philía is characterised by a resistant steel tubular frame powder coated for outdoor use, while seat and backrest are wrapped in a PVC cord, textured with lines, that, thanks to horizontal direction weaving, intersects at the centre to ensure elasticity and high resistance. The hand-made weave gives softness and comfort to the seat, as well as a tailored made look.
