The all-weather furnishings from [la-FÃªte](http://www.la-fete.biz) are not only light weight and durable, but considering they're made of 95% recyclable materials, are also very eco-friendly.

Their striking white, modern design is favored by high end establishments like the [Beach Bar](http://worldsbestbars.com/public/venue_listing.jsp?categoryId=102&currentVenueId=1442) at the [W Hotel](http://www.starwoodhotels.com/whotels/index.html) in San Diego who recognize the pieces for their stylish appeal, functionality and environmental properties. As the site says, "This is not your grandma's furniture."

Products includes the Sun Pad & Stack circular lounge, [Moon Pad & Roll](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moon-music) semicircle, Crib & Lean seating with bolsters, Check & Puck seat with ottoman/table, Wave & Vibe lounger and Dots & Dash set.

The la-FÃªte line was initially created for an [outdoor lounge](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ls24-lounge-system) for a Hollywood Hills project by LA-based husband and wife team, Angie (designer) and Tom Thornbury.
