Story
Asymmetrical windows
Aldìa is the first outdoor collection that Carlo Colombo designed for Giorgetti, in 2021. The structure of the seats is characterised by a play of asymmetrical windows, with which Colombo translated his idea of architecture onto a micro-scale.
Plywood sides and modular cushions
The sofa modules have backrests and armrests in reconstituted birch plywood on a painted metal structure with adjustable feet. The cushions are polyurethane foam plus fibre in a waterproof cover, and the modules can be combined into compositions or used as poufs.
