With an understanding of our client’s need to accommodate 8 people comfortably and 10 people for special occasions, we settled upon a 2.1-meter-long Multi outdoor table for the courtyard. With circulation space around the table an important consideration, the right balance of table size and space around the table always requires thoughtfulness in a courtyard environment.
The 2.1-meter long Multi table allows 3 people to sit comfortably on each side with the option of either 1 or 2 seats at both ends of the Multi table. The open-leg design of the Multi allows 1 person to sit happily at either end and then, on special occasions, each end can accommodate 2 people more snuggly to seat 10 diners overall.
Two Multi bench seats were paired with the Multi table and a plush inviting full weather outdoor velvet seat pad was included for each bench seat. Adding to the overall minimalist appeal of the Multi collection, each Multi bench seat pad is secured easily with cleverly concealed hidden magnets meaning no flyaways on windy days. What our clients loved about this option was the extra layer of comfort for longer chats around the dinner table coupled with the flexibility to remove the seat pads at any stage. The Multi bench seat also offers a generous 50cm depth for people to sit with ultimate ease.
For occasions where dinner guests benefited from back support, stackable lightweight full outdoor weather chairs were chosen as an easy sub-in option for special occasions. When not in use, they are conveniently stored away in a small footprint.
The low line setting of a dining table and bench seats keeps the overall height of the furniture pieces low on a daily basis, again ensuring the main focus of the beautiful vista outdoors is the leafy greenery.
To one side, a flexible nest of Piana side table was introduced as multi-purpose pieces to adapt to the needs of the day. With a stone-like appeal and feel, the Piana side tables benefit from being full outdoor weather non-porous Corian material, without the maintenance of stone.
