Parker Outdoor Sofa

Overview

Flexform dates Parker Outdoor, a stand-alone sofa credited to Antonio Citterio, to 2022. The page speaks of a clear retro influence, graceful lines, natural wovens and artisan craftsmanship, and lists two- and three-seat sofas, an ottoman and a single-armrest element in the family.

Construction

The structure combines steel and solid hand-turned, hand-finished wood; the sheet names solid iroko with a steel support frame and water-repellent elastic webbing. The fine weave on the backrest and armrests is hand-made as well. A single seat cushion is joined by large, generously padded loose cushions leaning against the cord backrest.

Hand-made parts

The page describes a structure of steel and solid hand-turned and finished wood, and adds that the weave on the backrest and armrests is entirely made by hand. It says most of the components used in the Parker Outdoor sofa can be recycled.
