Description
Riviera is the collection that knows exactly where it belongs: under a rose-covered pergola at dusk, on a stone terrace where the scent of jasmine drifts through warm air, at the kind of outdoor celebration that looks effortlessly beautiful because every element has been chosen with complete conviction. Named for the stretch of French Mediterranean coastline where outdoor living was elevated to an art form, Riviera brings the generous, light-saturated spirit of the Côte d’Azur’s garden culture to any event space fortunate enough to receive it.
The Provence sofa is the quiet emotional centre of the collection. Its white-painted curved timber frame arched spindle back, tapered legs, and gently rolled arms carries the unmistakable character of French country furniture at its most refined: not rustic, not ornate, but exactly the graceful middle ground between the two that defines the Provençal aesthetic at its best. Its deep white cushioning is generous enough for genuine relaxation, its silhouette distinctive enough to read as designed rather than merely functional.
Two Provence armchairs mirror its spirit precisely on either side their matching white frames and cushions extending the suite into a unified seating group of exceptional visual coherence, their open curved backs giving the composition a lightness and airiness that heavier upholstered seating could never achieve in an outdoor setting. Eight pillows across the three seating pieces carry the collection’s defining chromatic tension: a deliberate, passionate interplay of pure crimson red and clean white as bold and as French as a field of poppies against a limestone wall, as timeless as the Riviera’s own palette of contrasts.
The red pillows do not merely accent; they declare. Between the sofa and armchairs, the Provence coffee table completes the natural material story of the suite: its white-painted slatted timber top, set on four tapered legs in the same painted white finish, extends the collection’s garden furniture vocabulary into a surface that is as practical as it is inherently charming the right place for a champagne bucket, two crystal flutes, and an unhurried afternoon.
Two hurricane lanterns, placed directly on the coffee table, introduce the collection’s most atmospheric element as evening approaches their candlelight casting the white frames and crimson cushions in a warm, intimate glow that transforms an afternoon garden lounge into something altogether more cinematic.
And in the foreground, two red cubes complete the composition as both visual anchors and flexible seating their vivid scarlet upholstery grounding the colour story at floor level with the same confidence that the red pillows bring at seat height, completing a chromatic loop that runs from the roses on the garden wall to the floor of the lounge itself.
For outdoor weddings in rose gardens and Provençal estates, intimate birthday celebrations on sun-warmed terraces, and any event where the beauty of a French summer evening is the starting point and the destination, Riviera creates the lounge that guests settle into as the sun goes down and forget entirely to leave.
