The concept of the series embodies a warm sunny feeling that is encapsulated into a soft seating system. The capsule is comprised of Muuto's first [upholstered outdoor seating capsule](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/africa-collection) and it made its original debut at Art Basel Miami. The capsule blends elements of indoor and outdoor spaces elegantly. It proposes various furnishings including a lounge chair, a 2-seater sofa, and a 3-seater sofa. Voll shares, “As the distinction between indoor and outdoor furniture becomes less clear, we bring the comfort of indoors out with us. So, we designed a sofa and lounge chair for spending the best of times outdoors."
