Outdoor living, the Italian way

As South African homes increasingly embrace seamless indoor-outdoor flow, exterior spaces are becoming true extensions of the interior. Italian luxury brand Rugiano captures this evolution with Outdoor Atmospheres, a collection that translates refined interior elegance into curated open-air living.

Among the standouts are Marina, Dafne and Amalfi – three distinct expressions of Italian craftsmanship and material intelligence.

Marina introduces warmth and tactile richness through handwoven synthetic fibres over powder-coated metal frames. Its softened textures and open-weave patterns create a gentle dialogue between light, air and landscape, while modular adaptability allows for effortless configurations across terraces, gardens and poolside lounges.

Dafne adopts a more sculptural language. Interwoven metal bands define its architectural silhouette, balanced by generous, inviting cushions. Crafted with durable aluminium frames and refined finishes, including sophisticated bronze tones, Dafne blends artistic expression with everyday comfort – ideal for both private residences and refined hospitality settings.

Inspired by Italy’s iconic coastline, Amalfi embodies timeless outdoor elegance. Clean lines and considered proportions create an architectural foundation, while plush cushioning invites lingering relaxation. Whether styled as an intimate retreat or arranged across expansive terraces, Amalfi harmonises seamlessly with modern architecture and natural surroundings.

Together, Marina, Dafne and Amalfi redefine contemporary outdoor living – Outdoor Atmospheres – where durability, comfort and unmistakable Italian sophistication meet beneath open skies.
