Showroom

Always on the lookout for special furnishing gems, we present a selection of precious items and designer furniture, this time for the most carefree time of the year - the open-air season. After all, the patio has long since taken on the living room, and designers are now bringing out entire collections of the finest garden furniture. For the first time, the traditional French company Moissonier is venturing outside and producing a range of charming furniture such as this daybed for the open-air room.

True to their manufacturing history dating back to 1885, the French company also produces its summer furniture by hand according to individual customer requirements. "The structure can be freely designed in terms of color with the upholstery fabrics," says RoomDresser founder Doris Ambühl and continues: "Since there are now really great outdoor fabrics, we took this as an opportunity to put together a set of two for our terrace on Zeltweg."

And if the sun gets too hot towards midday, Tuuci from Miami offers tailor-made sun protection. "The sunshades can be fully customized using the configurator. From the shape and valance to various fabric combinations," says Doris Ambühl. With the extravagant Cupola, the increased ventilation ensures a constant breeze under the valance.

The Hamburg-based lighting company Grau takes mobility, form and a little bit of spice from the dining table for its illuminating salt shaker: Salt provides light exactly where it is needed - even outdoors in places without a power connection. The interior designer: "Thanks to its enormous battery power, the portable table lamp extends the time spent in the garden, even in the dark."
