Pluvia

Renewed collaboration between Ethimo and Luca Nichetto has led to Pluvia, the versatile new armchair that perfectly illustrates the balanced aesthetics of this designer and the ability of Ethimo to create outdoor furnishings with ever different inspiration. After Esedra, the outdoor furnishing system with its characteristic C-shape and icon of the 2017 collection, whose name and lines recall the beauty and pureness of classic architectural shapes from the past, Pluvia looks all set to become a new main player in alfresco living. Stackable, Pluvia is what happens when an aluminium structure is teamed with a shell in woven synthetic fibre that takes it back to the chairs seen in Italian squares everywhere in the eighties. Its sturdy structure ensures a solid base, while streamlining and lightening the design of the seat. A wide, welcoming back meanwhile lends Pluvia maximum comfort and perfect ergonomics. The personality of this small armchair comes from its cosy shape, from its defining materials and the possibility of combining different colours and textures, elements that mean it can be casually teamed with the widest variety of dining table types. Conceived and designed for outdoors, its harmonious lines, refined design and attention to details mean that Pluvia is also perfect for indoors and will become the ideal armchair to enhance the living area. Elegance and simplicity, together with design thinking that unites aesthetics and versatility, make Pluvia an armchair that ‘interprets’ the mood of its settings, and enhancing addition to any kind of open-air living space and a surprising one for interiors.
