B&B Italia Borea garden chair • armchair 69 cm
“Borea is (...) an aluminium collection, very modern, stackable, a true outdoor product that you can leave standing in the rain and nothing happens to it, but above all it has this quality: it looks like an aeroplane! It gives you the idea of that timeless piece of furniture which has carried the tradition of the twentieth century into the new century.”
Piero Lissoni
Borea is a modern and versatile garden furniture collection designed by Piero Lissoni. The pieces have a metal frame formed from tubes with a flowing, seamless design, without joints or interruptions. To invent a collection with an unmistakable style, new technologies typically used in aviation were employed in the manufacture of the Borea. The lounge collection comprises two- and three-seater sofas, a large armchair, a low small armchair and a dining chair, all elements fitted with a stackable lacquered aluminium frame. Comfort is provided by generous cushions that are not only soft and relaxing but were also developed sustainably. The cushions consist of a filling of polyester fibres obtained from recycled PET plastic bottles which envelop a core of polyurethane of differing densities. Upholstering a Borea three-seater sofa requires 510 bottles of 1500 ml, the two-seater sofa 390 bottles and the armchair 280.
