Case Eos Sofa

Named for the Greek goddess of dawn, Eos is lightweight – literally and visually – smartly proportioned, and very comfortable. Topped with quick-drying cushions covered in weatherproof Sunbrella fabric, the Eos Sofa features a surprisingly deep seat constructed of powder-coated aluminum that won’t rust over time.

Inspired by the clean-lined silhouettes of contemporary indoor sectionals, our Bal Harbour Outdoor Sectional features deep seats for hours of comfortable lounging. This collection’s simple yet versatile three-piece design is adaptable to any space regardless of size.

Beautiful natural finishes gracefully fade to a silvery grey patina during the first year of use, acquiring an elegantly weathered appearance.
Design Within Reach Block Island Sofa
In 1967, Jens Risom built his family’s vacation home on Block Island, Rhode Island. For a walking trail next to the property, he drew plans for outdoor furniture meant to provide a place for passersby to enjoy their surroundings. This collection fell by the wayside until he died at age 100 in 2016. We’re honored to bring the Block Island Collection (2019) to life posthumously as an homage to Risom. This outdoor chair is made of grade-A teak harvested from strictly managed plantations, ensuring its sustainability. Made in Indonesia.

In addition to its elevated look and feel, Savannah also includes some serious weatherproofing.
Design Within Reach Terassi Sofa
Inspired by 1930s-era furniture they came across on a visit to Timberline Lodge in Oregon, Studio Tolvanen gave the Terassi Collection (2017) round tapered legs for a leaner profile and rustic yet crafted appearance.

Serena & Lily Capistrano Sofa - Light Dune
Inspired by our own Avalon Collection, we’ve translated the same airy design notes into outdoor furniture you can really sink into.

To keep things elevated, we’ve added a tailored cushion with fabric that – like the weather-friendly frame itself – stands up nicely to the elements season after season.
Driade Roly Poly Sofa
The Roly Poly Sofa by Driade is a smooth, sweeping sample of the iconic collection designed by the inimitable Faye Toogood.
