If you are lucky enough to have an outdoor space within your workplace, you need ancillary furniture that can withstand the elements. Outdoor office furniture needs to adapt to a wide range of temperatures and be resistant to UV rays, water, and salt. As you search for sofas, armchairs and tables, you may be overwhelmed with the number of manufacturers and have difficulty finding the ones who specialize in the outdoors. Look no further! Here are our five favorite outdoor furniture brands that offer inspiring pieces to enhance any patio or deck. We hope you find their portfolios inspiring!

Moroso has been working in close collaboration with some of the world’s most talented designers to produce luxury sofas and seating since 1952. Today the company is headed by the second generation of the Moroso family- Roberto, the CEO, and Patrizia, the Art Director,- and is an example of how a small Italian artisan-owner company has evolved since it was run until the nineties by Agostino Moroso. The company has always been open to new ideas, from its origins in post-war Italy where there was a culture of ‘doing things and doing them well’.
We love their Banjooli and Tropicalia collections. Banjooli is part of M’Afrique, a range of chairs conceived by the designer and produced by African craft weavers using the yarn of fishing nets. The designs are all different and original, like their names. Hand-woven, they are human in their perfections and flaw. The Tropicalia collection is crafted of multicolored polymer cord woven on steel frames.
