Belladonna Exterior Sofa

This furniture is designed by Franco Albini & Franca Helg. Franco Albini (1905-1977) was an Italian architect and designer, famous for his ability to merge modern minimalistic furniture design with traditional Italian craftmanship. Through his work he obtained three Compasso D’Oro awards, the most prestigious Italian design prize.

From 1951 Franco Albini becomes business partners with Franca Helg (1920-1989), and from this point Franca plays a crucial role in numerous of Franco Albini’s designs. Read more about the Italian duo here.

The furniture in our Exterior collection is handcrafted in Alu-Rattan and Sika-Design ArtFibre®. Alu-Rattan is powder-coated aluminum that has been developed to resemble rattan and its unique shaping ability. Powder coating has the advantage that it can withstand hard wear and high temperatures.

ArtFibre® is a unique fiber made of dyed hard-wearing polyethylene that is temperature and UV resistant. The fiber has a strong structure that can maintain its shape for years on end.

MAINTENANCE Our Exterior furniture requires no maintenance. The furniture is suitable for standing outside all year round and is easy to clean. For general cleaning, the furniture can be washed with water mixed with mild soap.

Our cushions are developed in our Danish sewing studio to add extra comfort and fit perfectly into each piece of furniture. For our outdoor cushions we use high quality foam that drains water rapidly while circulating air with optimal efficiency. These are presented with Italian Tempotest fabrics that are rotting proof and immune to formation of mold and fungus. Cushions that are made to order cannot be returned.
