A new way to interpret contemporary outdoor living: Rotin is the new lounge collection created by Ethimo in collaboration with Studio Zanellato/Bortotto taking inspiration from the Asian tradition.
Comprising sofa, lounge armchair, coffee table and pouf with structure in pickled teak, Rotin sees bamboo as the main element for outdoor furnishings together with techniques normally used in the production of rattan furniture.
Rotin is the first product line in the Ethimo catalogue to be entirely manufactured with technical structural upholstery: soft padding in high-performance materials and fabrics specific for outdoor use with a soft comfortable hand and special draining system define and lend shape to the very structure of these seating solu-tions; in addition, ‘tubes’ of warm pickled teak joined with nautical rope embrace the seats, highlighting their contours and creating the structure of the coffee tables.
Colour is fundamental, thanks to fabrics in intense hues and surfaces in decisive brights; in particular, the tops of the occasional tables are made entirely by hand, in enamelled terracotta, waste quarry marble, or cement, and they bring alive wonderful compositions inspired by the Palladian technique.
The original combination of these “details” in stone stems from the use of three types of marble: Green Guatemala, Cipollino and Bardiglio, with cement grouting running between them to create elegant geometric designs on the surface.
Rotin is a very surprising collection for outdoor spaces, thanks to its unusual combinations and a subtle elegance evident in attention to details, proportions and colour.
