Collection Story
Origin
Solaria is an outdoor collection by Ludovica Serafini + Roberto Palomba and part of Poltrona Frau's Boundless Living Outdoor Collections. Poltrona Frau dates the modular sofa to 2021 and says the collection draws inspiration from the lifestyle and design typical of Mediterranean culture.
Design Language
The company describes generous volumes and a simple composition, a hybrid language between indoors and outdoors, with horizontal barrier-free islands in the spirit of lightness and comfort. Solaria consists of just three materials, stainless steel, rope and fabric cushions, and everything can be taken apart and reassembled into linear or island configurations.
