“Please take a look at our courtyard. We have this long gray wall that is so ugly. With your experience, what do you think we should do to hide it? I was thinking long flower boxes and a bench or something. What do you think?”
The fire is so delightful…
EcoSmart Fire has introduced the Synergy Series – four new outdoor designer fire ranges. They are the same dimensions of four of the most popular indoor ranges, but the Synergy Series fireplaces have been made with heavy-gauge steel surrounds, an extremely durable, weather resistant material.
The Great Outdoors: Re-trouve
We’ve taken a look at two of Emu’s new outdoor furniture collections - Ivy and Heaven. An Italian-based company, Emu is an innovator when it comes to advanced technological processes for metal protection. And the Re-trouve collection is the perfect example of this innovation.
The Great Outdoors: The Ivy Collection
Last week we blogged about Emu’s new Heaven collection. Today we’d like to share another new introduction from Emu - the Ivy Collection. Designed by Paola Navone, this collection is inspired by the art of topiary. The goal was to create “furniture sculptures”, light and minimal, that expose the versatility of metal.
The collection is complete with a sofa, chair and tables- each available in white, orange, light blue or turquoise.
The Great Outdoors: A little piece of ‘Heaven’
It’s a nice day here in the District, so our minds are wandering to the warmer days to come - time at the local pool, relaxing at the beach, restaurant outdoor seating… How many more days until summer?
As we count down the days, we’re going to distract ourselves with all the new pieces from the amazing outdoor furniture company Emu. An Italian-based company, Emu is an innovator when it comes to advanced technological processes for metal protection. The company recently launched a number of new outdoor pieces and we’d like to share a few of them with you over the next couple weeks.
First is the ’Heaven’ collection – complete with dining chair, dining table, lounge chair, side table/ottoman and cocktail table. The collection, designed by Jean-Marie Massaud, features a metal weave achieved through a unique process of weaving and welding. This woven look “gives the furnishings and ethereal lightness and an extreme softness to the volume, making them almost intangible” – hence the name. Check it out!
