| HOPPER designed by: Dirk Wynants |
| Familiar yet innovative Hopper is yet another casebook example of the Extremis philosophy: gathering people round a piece of outdoor furniture which unites functionality and innovation. Hopper clearly bears resemblance to the traditional picnic tables everybody knows, but as is typical of Extremis it offers extra comfort. The four pass through zones make it easy to get in and out of Hopper without having to lift your leg over the bench or disturbing your table- companions. Its slanted legs and tabletop edges are a clear reference to the hop poles that are so characteristic of the Westhoek region. If you turn around, you can use the tabletop as a comfortable backrest. Hopper is available in four sizes, seating four, six, eight, or ten people. available at: www.extremis.be |

| GRILLAGE designed by: François Azambourg |
| The principle for creating the basic shape of Grillage is very simple: a sheet of perforated metal is stretched to create a mesh, then folded, origami-style..Grillage tells the story of its manufacturing process (stretching, folding, creasing); it reveals everything about itself, from how it was designed to how it was produced. Grillage - wire mesh - it’s the way to achieve both comfort and ergonomics with an all-metal piece of furniture. It may be dressed with a special quilted covering for added comfort and a warmer look. Both versions are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. www.ligne-roset-usa.com |

| BITTA SWING designed by: Rodolfo Dordoni |
| ‘My aim was to create dense braiding that would still let the air through, reminiscent of the braiding of the ropes used to moor boats (hence the name Bitta, which means “mooring” in Italian), which makes the pieces look lightweight but, at the same time, they look just like cosy nests in natural colours to sit back and relax in’. R. Dordoni. The Kettal Bitta swing is available as a chair or as a two-seater, to which a base can be added to anchor it to the floor. available at: thresholdfurniture.com |

| The inspiration for the Cabrio Lounge Chair (2009) came from a desire to strip away excess and greatly simplify the overflared Adirondack chairs that are found in the market today. Designers Greg Benson and Jeff Tally point out how the Cabrio’s single-plank back and wide arms are a nod toward the Westport Chair, which was the inspiration for and predates the Adirondack. With a seat that’s low to the ground and generously angled, Cabrio is built for casual lounging and enjoying the outdoors. The material is 100% recycled plastic reclaimed from used milk jugs, but has the look and feel of virgin material and can be recycled again if necessary. This durable chair will last for years outside with no maintenance whatsoever. available at: design within reach |
