Featured in the August edition of Homes & Gardens Magazine is the stunning Utrecht Armchair from Cassina which is currently on display in our showroom should you wish to come and try it out for yourself.
The armchair is over 70 years old and still looks as unique as ever. Designed by Gerrit T Rietveld back in 1935, the Utrecht is built around a steel frame with polyurethane foam and polyester padding combining to give the impression of a 'floating' chair, even though it's as solid as any chair on the market.

Observer Magazine recently named the Lazy Bastard Armchair by Montis as one of their 'Most Wanted' pieces of furniture, just think of it as a stylish modern Lazy boy that you would not be horrified to have in your home!
A beanbag sits and fits like a glove. The polystyrene bead filling adjusts to any sitting position. Bertjan Pot with Lazy Bastard combines the casualness of a beanbag with the comfort of a lounge chair. He placed the beanbag as it were on legs, in a smooth outer shape that contains the flexible contents. Lazy Bastard allows for extra comfortable sitting as its seat is higher and fitted with armrests. The specially designed fabric gives the beanbag chair a relaxed look and touch that will particularly appeal to the youth, as well as the price tag will.

Chaplins is the place to go for luxurious outdoor furniture. As Clare Nolan from the Daily Mail states "it's time to think beyond the table-and-chairs set and opt for stylish all-weather furnishings."
Why not make a statement with the stunning Canasta Outdoor range by Patricia Urquiola for B&B Italia...
Patricia Urquiola approached the outdoors starting from the theme of woven patterns - reviving and personalising the concept with a traditional look in mind, but giving it a decisively contemporary look without using too much nostalgic influence. The seating elements were inspired by the conical shape and weave that is similar to baskets, hence the name Canasta (the Spanish word for basket).
Traditional Vienna straw, with its decorative geometric shape, is also a model for these pieces. The traditional pattern was amplified, increasing it to macro-proportions compared to the original, and was used to make a dramatic line of comfortable chairs and sofas.
A linear sofa in two versions, with high and low backrest, an armchair with the same alternatives, a large circular armchair and a sunbed, make up the Canasta collection. Ideal for the swimming pool area or the garden lawn, these chairs are like pieces of "land art" that harmonize with the surrounding scenery.
  
In Canasta B&B Italia's most sophisticated technologies are fused with history and culture: an interweaving between the ancient and the modern. The exclusive workmanship of the fibres is performed in the Philippines, home of age-old tradition where skilled craftsmen have been practicing this art for generations. B&B Italia adds its unmistakable innovative mark to tradition by using a polyethylene fibre (30 mm width) in two different colours: white and bronze.
The seating range is completed with cushions especially created for outdoor use in several different fabric combinations: plain colours and melanges matched with striped and flowered patterns in shades of beige, purple and brown. A creative puzzle of shapes, signs, colours allows anyone to customise Canasta to fit their own personal taste. They're made through exceptional manufacturing procedures that give them freshness, softness and make them pleasing to the touch as well as extremely resistant to usage.
The collection is enriched by a series of tables and low tables with structures in white and black varnished steel and tops in ceramic tiles, with decorations that reproduce the cushions patterns in the shades of white, black, brown, cyclamine-colour and and turquoise.
The result is an innovative solution in the field of outdoor furnishings, with products that maintain the same quality, aesthetic and comfort standards of all the B&B Italia's collections.
