Timeout interprets the theme of metal, presenting it in a modern way in a whole range of furnishings.

With the Petalo armchair and pouf, Vincent Van Duysen enhances the Outdoor Timeout Collection with gentle curves and delicately enveloping seating. A testament to the artistry inherent in the collection, these designs create reimagine outdoor atmospheres thanks to their inviting aesthetic. To achieve its abundant lightness, Petalo features a solid aluminum base in a distinctive merlot red color, carefully chosen for its recyclability. This aligns seamlessly with the Molteni Group's unwavering commitment to sustainability.

Two-seater sofa, armchair with or without armrests, chair with or without armrests, sunbed, stool, bench, low table and dining table - to define plein air environments or spaces half indoors and half outdoors. Van Duysen draws his inspiration from the tradition of fer forgé, reserving for the metal a formal precision and purity that recalls elegant, modernist languages. The coldness of aluminium is warmed by the burnished paint, a colour that evokes the natural world, such as the browns of earth, lit up by warmer tones.

In the seating, the theme of the band of burnished painted aluminium, the fil rouge of the collection, is taken up again in a more leisurely rhythm to create the structure. The bending of the band draws the shape of the backrest and sled bases, with dynamic, agile and angular profiles.
A dense, handcrafted polypropylene rope cover is woven onto the metal frame in anthracite, olive green and desert yellow. In addition to the armchair and chairs, the range includes a large array of products, such as a dining table with seats, a stool, a comfortable sunbed, side tables and a bench.
