Open-Bottomed Sofas

The Island Seating System is as Breezy as its Name Suggests

The Island Seating System presents a much lighter solution to a hefty request. When you're shopping around for furnishings to accommodate multiple sitters, you often end up with quite bulky options. This outdoor sofa is unique in its rather skeletal design. The frame is made from bent tubular metal wrapped all the way underneath it.

Another great feature of Francesco Rota's design for Paola Lenti is the modularity of the collection. It comes with several different pieces, including some with or without backrests and armrests. You can create patio couches as large and as small as required; ottomans are even available for added comfort. The Island Seating System is heavy enough to withstand weather, and remains open for the passage of gentle summer breezes below.
